There are plenty of Manly wedding venue options catering to all sizes of wedding parties and budgets.

Manly History

Manly was named by Captain Arthur Phillip who described the indigenous people in the area: “their confidence and manly behaviour made me give the name of Manly Cove to this place”, but it was not until the 1850’s that there was a vision of it being a seaside resort.

It was in this area that Aussies were introduced to surfing in 1914 by Duke Kahanamoku of Hawaii.

Today one of the main points of interest is the Manly Wharf which was constructed in 1855 with regular ferry services commencing the next year. A hotel was built and “the Corso” was cleared and is today the centrepiece for tourists and locals alike with around 200 retail, food and coffee shops giving it a village atmosphere and in fact Manly is still often referred to as “The Village”.

Your wedding guests staying here can take a leisurely walk along the beautiful beach and seek out Indigenous rock art engravings or visit the century old Grotto Point Lighthouse.

Mosman History

Mosman is also where well-known Aboriginal leader, Bungaree (c1775 – 1830) came from. Bungaree was painted many times and exhibited in major European cities.

In 1871 a wharf was built with regular ferry services to Circular Quay and at the start of the 20th century many beautiful Federation homes and rows of shops were lovingly built. In 1916 the world renown Taronga (meaning “beautiful view”) Zoo opened.
