FAQs

Getting married in Gold Coast: common questions

Do we need a permit for a beach wedding?

Yes for public beaches on the Gold Coast. Permits are inexpensive but cap numbers and structures, and your spot isn't exclusive.

Beach or hinterland?

Beach for casual and bright; hinterland for cooler air, greenery and easier wet weather backups. Many couples do ceremony on the coast and reception up the hill.

What's the best time of year?

April to October. Summer is hot, humid and storm-prone, though it's cheaper.
