How to Plan a Geelong Engagement Party

An engagement party is usually less formal than the wedding, which opens up more choice. Around the bay that might mean an upstairs balcony above Eastern Beach, a function terrace on Pakington Street, a vineyard lawn on the Bellarine or a marquee in the backyard.

Ways to set the tone:

Casual drinks – Pakington Street function terraces from $25 per person and pub lounges with free room hire suit a big, relaxed crowd.
Waterside – an upstairs restaurant with a balcony above Eastern Beach from $47.50 per person, or a pasta and wine bar at Portarlington from $32 per person.
Among the vines – Bellarine wineries and a cider house at Wallington, from $40 per person.
At home – marquee hire, a caterer, balloon backdrops and a photo booth.
A DIY farm – a Bellarine farm hired exclusively where you bring your own food and drinks.

Keep the guest list in line with what you plan for the wedding, and book transport for any Bellarine venue.

Per-person packages here start at $25 per person and reach $72 per person for a CBD restaurant.
A historic Fyansford pub works on a $1,100 minimum spend, which can suit a mid-sized group.
At home, the main costs are marquee hire, catering and drinks; get quotes for each before sending invitations.

Planning for the weather

Wind on the bay and the Bellarine can hit an outdoor party; ask the hire company about marquee sides and heaters.
Book a room with an indoor option for a winery or beach venue.
Summer weekends on the coast go first, so book early if you want a warm-weather party.

Small touches

A balloon garland or backdrop gives guests a spot for photos.
A photo booth with prints doubles as a guestbook.
Ask the venue whether a short speech or toast needs a microphone.
