Feel like taking it further?  Why not treat yourself to a soothing soak in your hotel suite’s freestanding bath, or simply lounge around next to the stunning garden pool.

Or if you really want to go next-level, reception can book you and the wedding party in for some serious pre-ceremony pampering at one of the luxurious day spas nearby.

The ceremony

From exchanging rings on the stunning Rooftop Terrace to saying ‘I do’ on the Palm Balcony, there are a host of options when it comes to getting married at Tradewinds. Both areas boast stunning waterfront views over the Swan River and beyond, and are the perfect venue for wedding parties.  

The Rooftop Terrace seats up to 220 guests in style and comfort, and includes a registry table and chairs.  

Meanwhile, the Palm Balcony offers old-world charm with expansive views over the swaying palm trees and river beyond. 

The photoshoot

Once you’ve said ‘I do’, you’ll be spoilt for choice on where to have your wedding photos taken.

Just a stone’s throw away from Tradewinds, the banks of the stunning Swan River are the perfect backdrop to capture some picture-perfect wedding day moments.  After that, it’s up to you.  

Get creative with Fremantle’s renowned artwork, murals and installations or, if you don’t want to stray too far, Tradewinds is an unforgettable location for both indoor and outdoor wedding shots.  

The after-party

A wedding reception is the final hurrah on your magical day, but how you choose to party is up to you.

Rejoin your guests after the photo shoot and enjoy cocktails and canapés as the sun sets over the Swan, then continue the celebrations into the night with an extravagant sit-down dinner or sophisticated cocktail party.

Personalise the food offerings to your taste with a selection of mouthwatering dishes from the Tradewinds banquet menu, which features local, seasonal produce all prepped and cooked by the chef and his experienced team. 

Pair your customised menu with a matching drinks package and remember that all wedding guests can be catered to, regardless of their dietary requirements.
