About Jackalope Hotel Wedding Venue

Nestled amongst its own world-class vineyard, Jackalope Hotel takes the cake as far as boutique luxury accommodation goes in Australia! With a mix of urban sophistication and secluded charm, Jackalope Hotel weddings are by far some of the most adaptable on the peninsula, managing to appeal to almost everyone. As a seasoned Jackalope Hotel wedding videographer, I know how important that is when couples are trying to decide on a venue.

Why Should You Consider It?

Sometimes it’s nice to go back to the basics, and other times it’s nice to indulge in a little lavish luxury. This time, we’re talking about the latter of the two. With an onsite spa, breathtaking black infinity pool and accommodation that looks like it’s been made for royalty, Jackalope Hotel wedding venue is the place to choose if you’re looking for nothing but the best. Their fine dining options, accomodation, pool and luxury services offer the ultimate comfort for you and your guests.

Aesthetic And Vibes

While Jackalope Hotel is synonymous with luxury, its general vibe is still very much approachable and personal. Designed in collaboration with Carr Design Group and the Fabio Ongarato Design Studio, a signature feature of Jackalope – the 30-metre black infinity pool that looks out over the Willow Creek Vineyard – is a favourite among guests and couples alike.

If you happen to have the Rare Hare dining space on your big day, you’ll benefit from panoramic views over the vineyard, exposed brick flooring and thick wooden tables and chairs. Elegant, yet down to earth. All things that make Jackalope Hotel wedding photography so special.

Indoor And Outdoor Options

Jackalope Hotel benefits from both an indoor and outdoor space to make sure your occasion goes exactly to plan. Start your wedding day in style by holding your ceremony on the Jackyack Terrace, a large platform that looks out onto the Willow Creek Vineyard and accompanying lake.

It’s the perfect way to feel like you’re the only couple in the world, and focus on the only things that matter! Jackalope Hotel wedding videography benefits greatly from this atmosphere, and it ensures your photos are timeless and full of emotion.

Follow it up by heading inside to the event space that is just as spectacular! Refined luxury is evident throughout with modern decor and a highly memorable space to personalise. The floor-to-ceiling windows at the end of the room provide you and your guest with spectacular views of the vineyards and surrounding countryside, so you can appreciate the natural beauty of the peninsula even if the weather isn’t on your side.

Accommodation

Highly regarded as one of the most luxurious hotels in the country, this 5-star wedding venue truly outdoes itself as far as accommodation is concerned. Couples have the option to buy out the entire hotel which would give access to 44 luxury rooms as well as a couple of suites for your guests.

You can also purchase them together separately, though bigger parties (66+) may have better luck with a hotel buyout.

Packages

Seated weddings include an on-site ceremony, canapes, a 3-course meal, a drinks package and a number of extras to make your day special. Rates start at $300 per person with a minimum spend depending on the time of year.

Cocktail weddings include 8 canapes, 3 main items, 2 bowls and 2 sweet canapes. It also includes an on-site ceremony as well as many other extras – some with a charge and some included for free.

Perhaps the most luxurious wedding venue that Mornington Peninsula has to offer, Jackalope Hotel is bound to give you and your guests a day to remember!
