Your planning enquiry is free, with availability, venue arrangements and the experience price confirmed directly by Unforgettable Proposals.
Start with the setting
Choose how you want the moment to feel
Consider the level of privacy, the surroundings your partner loves and where you'll celebrate afterwards.
A garden setting
Wollongong Botanic Garden gives you several garden spaces to consider, with the exact collection, access window and permitted styling checked for your proposal.
The Rose Garden closes earlier than the wider garden, so plan the moment and collection time around the specific space you choose.
Check the Garden's current opening hoursA coastal lookout or park
For a coastal idea, compare the outlook at Bald Hill with a beach or park setting that suits your arrival plan and photography.
Public spaces are shared with other visitors, so ask about the approved area, the setup footprint and a weather alternative before confirming the arrangements.

Hideaway Lane offers a covered setting with hanging plants, while Golf Place Inn and Lakeside Inn have outdoor options with an indoor function-room backup described by Unforgettable Proposals.
Share the atmosphere you'd like, then confirm the exact booked space, exclusive-use arrangements, supplier access and setup time for your date.
A hotel stay and celebration
The Novotel Northbeach Panorama Suite brings the proposal and celebration together, with the option to stay overnight after the setup is collected.
Include this preference in your enquiry so the room, hotel availability, styling access and overnight arrangements can be confirmed before booking.
Bring the details together
A quote built around your proposal
Share the styling you have in mind, from a simple setting to a more elaborate floral display, along with your overall budget.
Ask for venue arrangements, travel, styling, setup and collection to be itemised so the full experience is clear before you book.
Complimentary professional photography may be available with Impressive and Unforgettable styling as a current promotion, offered case by case and confirmed in your quote.
Discuss photography or video coverage, image delivery, any accommodation and celebration dining as part of your individual plan.
Timing and permissions
Give the setting time to come together
Around 2 weeks is the provider's recommended starting point, while some venue bookings and permits need longer.
For Council park or beach hire, applicable fees, bonds and insurance are due at least 2 weeks before the booking, with structures requiring written approval.
Share your preferred date first so the provider can check the venue's requirements and confirm what can be arranged.
