AT ST GEORGE’S COLLEGE, our primary business is university student accommodation. However, we are fortunate to operate within picturesque, historic grounds and buildings modelled on the likes of those at Oxford or Cambridge. We recognise that our location forms a part of Perth's beautiful cultural and architectural landscape, and makes for an unforgettable wedding venue. As such, in the summer months we offer our grounds as a wedding location, where possible and on a limited basis. Those wishing to inquire should be advised that St George's does not provide any vendor, planning, or other wedding related services beyond the simple renting of this venue. We kindly thank you for your understanding, and look forward to hearing from you.
