About this space

The natural beauty, comfortable accommodation and friendly service of King Parrot combine to provide the ultimate destination for your wedding.

King Parrot has been the choice of many couples as their wedding venue with exclusive use of the 6 cottages and campground on 200 acres of pristine Otway land. The land is mainly forest and looks out over the Pennyroyal Valley. There is abundant wildlife and bushwalks throughout the property to waterfalls and the National Park.

It is ideal for couples who seek the freedom to organise their own unique wedding and spend quality time to celebrate with their family and friends.

The Lodge and Hall complex can accommodate up to 80 people for a seated wedding reception, or more guests for a non-seated function. There is a large space outside the hall to erect a marquee for larger weddings if needed, with a maximum of 120 guests. There are many beautiful places on the property for the marriage ceremony, grassy slopes with magnificent views or a rainforest setting. Your families and friends can stay in the six cottages and camp in our rainforest campground. We can accommodate up to 60 guests and there is also other accommodation nearby. This unique venue offers an intimate, unforgettable experience for your special day in a quiet and secluded resort.
