This blog outlines Wedding Accommodation in the Yarra Valley and why it’s so vital to get in early! Congratulations, you’ve chosen one of the prettiest regions in Victoria to get married. Getting there in an uber or taxi is usually (not always) okay during the daytime. However, Ubers and taxis to leave at the end of the night are almost non-existent. So best to be prepared, so your guests can be prepared. It’s best to book Wedding Accommodation in the Yarra Valley early. If most guests are recommended the same place, this will make it convenient for all guests to jump in one bus from the accommodation to the wedding. Accommodation in the Yarra Valley is also super popular for tourism, a weekend away, conferences, family holidays, so again I can’t stress enough its great to book early. Let the accommodation know an entire wedding party is coming they may even give you a promo code for guest discounts (minimum guests rooms usually apply)

Please think about the accommodation your guest might like to stay in (hotel, b&b or motel). This might be different to where you would like to stay on your Wedding night.

I have broken this blog into three sections. Hotel for guests (in the Yarra Valley), East Melbourne Wedding Accommodation (some a little more budget friendly) and Bed and Breakfasts / Homesteads perfect for Wedding Accommodation in the Yarra Valley for bridal parties, parents and VIP guests.

You are more than welcome to put a link to this blog (this URL) on your wedding website or invitations. That your guests can shuffle through and see what Wedding accommodation in the Yarra Valley would suit them best, rather than spending hours scrolling through the internet. If you click on any of the hotel names it will directly take you to the website of the accommodation

Local bus companies I also recommend for chauffeuring to and from accommodation.

And if calling a taxi you can pre-book through “Yarra Valley Taxis” (03) 8736 8692. Don’t bother with Uber, Taxis or other types of phone app / car booking services on the night. They rarely turn up.
