One of the Most Beautiful Wedding Ceremony Locations near Yamba in the Clarence Valley
If you’re searching for the perfect wedding ceremony location on the north Coast of NSW, there’s one place that stands out - Green Point, Angourie.
Just slightly north of the well-known Angourie Point, this open coastal headland has become one of the most sought-after places for a wedding in the Clarence Valley.
With sweeping ocean views, natural open space and an atmosphere that feels both expansive and grounding, it’s a location that allows your ceremony to feel truly connected to the environment.
Why Green Point, Angourie Is So Popular for Weddings
Green Point has a quiet presence to it.
There’s space to breathe.Room for the moment to unfold naturally.
It’s not just about the view - it’s about how the place feels.
Couples are drawn to Green Point for:
• uninterrupted ocean views• natural, open ceremony space• a relaxed coastal atmosphere• a setting that feels simple and meaningful
It’s perfect for couples wanting a ceremony that feels genuine, calm and deeply personal.
A Real Ceremony at Green Point
As a Yamba wedding celebrant, I’ve had the privilege of officiating many ceremonies here - and no two are ever the same.
Each couple brings their own story, their own energy, their own way of being together.
And Green Point holds that beautifully.
There’s a stillness here that allows everything to slow down - creating space for connection, laughter and those quiet, meaningful moments.
Whales, Dolphins & Unexpected Magic
One of the most special things about getting married at Green Point is what happens beyond the ceremony itself.
Depending on the season, it’s not uncommon to see:
• whales breaching in the distance• dolphins moving along the coastline
These moments are never planned — but they become part of the day in the most natural and unforgettable way.
A pause.A shared glance.A memory that stays with you.
A Place That Holds Meaning
Angourie isn’t just a beautiful location, it holds
stories. Just nearby, Shelley Beach is one of those places that has always stayed with me.
Before it became part of National Parks, it was privately owned by a close family friend. I spent many weekends there growing up — camping with my family, exploring the rockpools and experiencing the quiet, untouched beauty of that coastline.
It’s a place that feels both familiar and timeless.
Today, it remains one of the most stunning spots in the area, and a perfect location for wedding photos after your ceremony at Green Point or Angourie.
It’s these deeper connections to place that make weddings here feel even more meaningful.
Local Insight
Having grown up in this area, I understand just how much the coastline can change depending on the time of day, season and weather.
Afternoon winds can change along the headland, and while the ceremony location itself can’t always be changed, careful consideration is always taken. This might mean allowing a few moments for conditions to settle, gently adjusting positioning, or simply working with the environment so the ceremony still feels calm and natural.
I keep a close eye on the conditions - including wind direction and passing weather - and make quiet, practical decisions on the day so everything flows as smoothly as possible.
It’s these small, behind-the-scenes considerations that help your ceremony feel relaxed, grounded and seamless.
When Is the Best Time to Get Married at Green Point?
Green Point is beautiful at any time of day, but timing can shape the feel of your ceremony.
Morning ceremonies can feel calm and peaceful, while later in the day the light softens and the atmosphere becomes more relaxed.
Working with the natural elements — rather than against them — is what makes ceremonies here feel effortless.

• allow time for access and parking
