While churches in Cairns are traditionally the scene of weddings, many couples choose to be married in the great outdoors, especially in Cairns, Palm Cove and Port Douglas where beach and rainforest weddings are common.

Beach weddings are a favourite in the Cairns region. There are spectacular beaches and islands to chose from like Palm Cove and Green Island on the Great Barrier Reef.

With the ocean as a backdrop, blue skies above and tropical trees swaying in the sea breeze the beach ceremony is the epitome of a Cairns wedding.

If you’re dreaming of an unforgettable wedding in Cairns consider going under water to exchange your vows.

The Great Barrier Reef provides a setting like no other and underwater communication earpieces will ensure guests who remain on dry land (or a pontoon anyway) can still be a part of the ceremony.

You can also celebrate your wedding aboard one of the many boats operating in and around Cairns, Palm Cove or Port Douglas. The options are plentiful, depending on the size of your guest list.

Rainforest weddings are also popular in Cairns and Port Douglas with many venues having both indoor and outdoor options.

With the Daintree rainforest as your backdrop, there’s little need for extra decoration.
