If you’re dreaming of a wedding reception near the beach, begin your search in the area close to Shelly Beach in Manly. You’ll find great beachfront venues there with panoramic views. More venues with ocean views can be found in other towns along the northern coast, e.g. Narrabeen. And if you wish to escape into nature, choose a location near one of the national parks. We recommend Terry Hills or Ku-ring-gai Chase.
