King Edward Park weddings: a photographer’s guide

Newcastle

Why we love King Edward Park

Nestled in the heart of Newcastle, King Edward Park is a lush green escape with sweeping lawns, towering trees, and heritage details like the iconic rotunda. It’s the perfect choice for couples wanting a romantic garden ceremony. As photographers, we love its versatility — whether it’s sunlit celebrations under the trees or golden-hour portraits on the cliff tops, every image feels timeless and natural.

About King Edward Park

King Edward Park is a heritage park on the clifftops of Newcastle, with sweeping lawns, big old trees and its iconic rotunda. It is a beautiful choice for a garden ceremony within walking distance of the city and the coast.

Booking a ceremony

Ceremonies in parks the City of Newcastle owns or manages need council approval first. Bring your approval document on the day. Shelters can’t be booked exclusively and stay open to the public, and receptions aren’t permitted in open spaces. Contact the council’s events team about availability, guest numbers and fees.

Photo spots we look for

Shade under the trees for the ceremony, the rotunda for something classic, and the clifftops for golden hour over the ocean. Michael & Isaac married here before their reception at Novotel Newcastle Beach.

King Edward Park wedding FAQs

Do we need approval to marry in the park?

"We always felt like we were in such good hands."

We honestly couldn’t recommend Chris, Jacob, Casey and the entire Bedroom Studios team enough! … Casey was amazing throughout the entire lead-up to our wedding. … Then, on the day, Chris and Jacob were absolutely incredible. They were so professional, fun, relaxed and easy-going, and made us feel completely comfortable from start to finish…

We absolutely adore our preview pictures and cannot wait to see our full album already. They absolutely nailed the brief and matched the vibe we were going for incredibly well. Super talented and easy to deal with from the get-go. Casey is wonderful to deal with and makes everything super easy and seamless.
