Sandbelt elegance meets Mornington Peninsula charm


Tucked away in Frankston South, just 35 minutes from Melbourne’s CBD, Peninsula Kingswood Country Golf Club is one of Victoria’s hidden gems for weddings. Known across Australia for its championship Sandbelt courses, the venue also doubles as a stunning backdrop for couples wanting a celebration that feels both relaxed and refined. Sweeping fairways, modern architecture, and on-site luxury accommodation mean you don’t just book a reception space—you create a full wedding experience for you and your guests.


Why couples love Peninsula Kingswood

One of the big drawcards of Kingswood is how versatile it is. Whether you’re dreaming of an elegant outdoor ceremony overlooking the manicured fairways, or a stylish indoor reception framed by the modern clubhouse, the venue flows effortlessly from one part of the day to the next. Guests don’t need to travel between locations—everything is right there. Add in boutique accommodation, a resort-style pool, tennis courts, and a members’ lounge, and it quickly becomes more than just a wedding—it’s a weekend escape.


Photography backdrops at their best

From a photographer’s point of view, this venue is a dream. The rolling green fairways and sculpted Sandbelt terrain catch golden hour light in the most beautiful way, creating portraits that feel cinematic and timeless. The clubhouse architecture adds a modern edge, while the tree-lined course and garden areas offer softer, romantic settings. Even if the weather turns, the light-filled interiors and covered terraces keep things stress-free—so rain never gets in the way of beautiful photos.


What makes your day here unforgettable

Couples choose Peninsula Kingswood not just for the views, but because the whole day feels seamless. You can get ready on-site, hold your ceremony, take portraits, and move straight into a reception—all without the stop-start of travelling between venues. That flow keeps everyone relaxed and present, and it shows in the photos and video. Whether it’s a first look on the fairway, a ceremony framed by the clubhouse, or sneaking out at sunset for golden hour portraits, this venue delivers moments that feel effortless but look spectacular.
