Mount Buffalo National Park Wedding day
Do you love the outdoors and you would love to have your wedding on top of a Mountain? We got you covered! Here are a few things you should consider and keep in mind when planning your day.
How do you get married on top of Mount Buffalo?
Location
First things first: choose your location wisely. Most elopement’s or adventurous weddings are done with the minimum amount of people around to make the experience more intimate to the couple. If you wish, you can always have some guests but they need to be ready to stay standing through the ceremony and afterwards.

While deciding on your location keep in mind how long you will have to walk form the carpark to your chosen destination. For this step it is critical for you to visit the site beforehand to make sure that you keep in mind the difficulty and if you will be able to do it while carrying a bag.
Consider the types of scenery around you, is it more important for you to be in the middle of a forest or you want the majestic views? Do you want wild flowers and little breeze or you don’t mind wild wind, cliffs and crushing waves?
Time of the year
In an ideal world you would want to visit the location and the possible site of your wedding ceremony during the same month you are planning your wedding day to be (so a year in advance). However I know this is not always possible as most couples planning to elope tend to make the decision quickly. If you are looking into the location a few months away form your planned day, then keep in mind the average temperatures and plan for it. In summer consider the clothes you will wearing, the insects of that time of the year, the exposure to the elements (that’s why early morning or late in the day are ideal, not only the light is gorgeous but you are avoiding the hot / humid part of the day), and always pack extra water.
Double check permits
In Australia as long as you don’t have a big number of guests and as long as you don’t have any equipment with you (like chairs), then in most cases you can go ahead with your ceremony as long as you have a minimum impact on the fauna and flora of the location.
