Historic Wedding Venue Fremantle.

Fremantle’s first jail, opened for business in January 1831. You can book the lawn reserve for wedding ceremonies but it is open to the public.

The Roundhouse Weddings, Fremantle.

See above Kidogo Arthouse and Moore & Moore which are also historic Fremantle wedding venues.



Top Six Fremantle Wedding Photo Locations.

Cliff St, Fremantle Wedding Photos.

There is something beautiful and nostalgic about the late 1800’s architecture, the Reckitt & Coleman building facade pic below was built in the 1890’s to hide some ugly cottages that were later knocked down. It’s been used in millions of Fremantle wedding photos and even used as a backdrop in a movie.

Ditching the wedding car and moving on foot allows everyone to relax together and have a fun experience which leads to some awesome natural wedding images.

Bathers Beach Fremantle.

This is the beach next to The Roundhouse, it’s a two minute walk in high heels (I haven’t personally tested this) from Cliff St to the beach.

The roundhouse provides some creative options with the tunnel under the jail, the light is really interesting. There are also some nice high walls next to the beach with small trees which are really cool.

Fremantle Maritime Museum.

A contrast to the typical earlier architecture found in Fremantle, this is a modernist building with the potential for dramatic wedding images. Especially after it rains you can get some epic reflection photos with the puddles. If you don’t mind jumping in the car or walking a bit further from Bathers Beach it’s going to give you some variety to your photos.

It also has the Fremantle docks, E Shed markets and old warehouses all there which is awesome.

Fremantle Court House.

Fremantle Court House is situated opposite Esplanade Park and next to Henry St and Cliff St which are all awesome! The cool thing is that you can get a few at each spot as you go for a walk.

Before you know it, you’ve had a great time and got some awesome natural wedding photos with heaps of variety.

Fremantle Court House has two beautiful London Plane Trees on each side, I like using the side archways to frame people with the trees in the background. Or from the front there is nice side light on the back wall which can give nice creative black and whites.

Henry Street Fremantle.

Henry Street has some beautiful street facades with coloured doorways that hint at Mediterranean influences. The brick archways in the photo below lead into a leafy red bricked street with beautiful architecture. Awesome for wedding photos.

Fremantle Esplanade Park.

Just at the end of Henry St Fremantle Esplanade Park has some beautiful big pine trees, lovely green grass and also a little forest area too. On the way across to Fremantle Fishing Boat Harbour. Again all of these locations are very close to one another, offering fantastic variety and convenience.

Fremantle fishing boat harbour.

Another option for water pics, lovely bright fishing boats reflect into the water framed by boardwalks and renovated warehouses.

Little Creatures Brewery Fremantle.

Treat yourself to a nice beer or champagne and get some nice natural photos with your bridal party hanging out and having fun.

This is a great spot to be picked up by your driver if your reception venue is not close by.

Beach Wedding Ceremonies Fremantle

Bathers Beach Wedding Ceremonies Fremantle.

This Fremantle beach ceremony location has two fantastic wedding venues right there on the beach, Bather Beach House and Kidogo Arthouse. A lot of the other wedding venues in Fremantle are within walking distance or a few minutes away by car.

South Beach Wedding Ceremony Fremantle.

More on thew DIY side of things, this is a beautiful beach with lawned areas. It can really busy on nice days and parking can be hard to find.

Coast Wedding Ceremony Fremantle.

Coast also offers ceremonies and reception packages. Situated in North Fremantle with stunning views overlooking the Indian Ocean. A nice relaxed vibe to the place.
