For many couples, the wedding is only the beginning.
The real adventure starts a few days later, boarding a plane and heading towards a long awaited European honeymoon.
At Leonda By The Yarra, we’ve noticed a growing trend among our couples. More and more are choosing June, July and August wedding dates, not just for the celebration itself, but for what comes next.
A European summer.
From Italy’s Amalfi Coast to the Greek Islands and the streets of Paris, these months align perfectly with some of Europe’s most desirable travel destinations.
Why The Timing Works So Well
One of the biggest challenges couples face is deciding when to honeymoon.
Book too early and you may miss peak experiences.
Book too late and work commitments, weather, and schedules can get in the way.
June, July and August weddings solve this beautifully.
Your wedding takes place during Melbourne’s cooler months, while Europe is enjoying its most vibrant season.
The result?
A seamless transition from wedding day to honeymoon.
