We can't wait to celebrate with you!
We will be updating our wedding details here as we plan. Stay tuned! If you have any questions, please send us an email woodradley@gmail.com
Our Gift Registry
A number of you have asked us about a Wedding Registry, we will have a wishing well available on the day which will go towards our honeymoon next year. Alternatively, for those who prefer more sentimental gifts, we have created a small registry on our website. This is to give you an idea of our style only, but please do not feel obligated to purchase these exact items.

Location
Taradale is the home of our wedding venue, a tiny town nestled nearby the Macedon Ranges which is an area in Victoria that we have spent many a weekend. Kyneton is where we will be basing ourselves and is easily one of our favourite places to visit. We recommend you base yourselves here too. When planning our wedding in Melbourne, we just knew we had to share this special area with our guests. 90 minutes drive from Melbourne, there is plenty to take in. We recommend checking out the small country towns which boast a number of independent boutique shops, local produce food stores and eateries as well as taking in the scenery, walks, and delightful vineyards.
Accommodation Information
We recommend booking accommodation early as these towns can get popular over the holiday season. We will be basing ourselves in Kyneton, which is one of our favourite places in Victoria. We recommend booking in Kyneton also as we will arrange buses to and from the wedding venue from there. There are plenty of quaint accommodation options available, if you are having trouble finding somewhere suitable, please do contact us! The below listings are just a few options to choose from.

Our Wedding
Our venue is an old deconsecrated church, where we will be holding both the ceremony and reception. We are aiming to have an outdoor reception (weather permitting of course). We will make a decision on this in the days leading up to the wedding.
Children
While we both adore children, we would like to give you the night off! Please consider childcare for our Reception. We will be arranging local group childcare options, please send us an email if you would like us to include your little ones in these arrangements. Some of our guests are using the services of Event Nannies
