Sorrento's most famous seaside landmark since 1875, hosting ceremony, reception and late-night celebrations across Art Deco ballrooms overlooking the Mornington Peninsula foreshore.
Among beach wedding venues in Victoria, few carry the pedigree of The Continental Sorrento, the seaside town's most famous landmark since 1875. Set on Ocean Beach Road near the Mornington Peninsula's shoreline, this heritage-listed precinct blends 19th-century character with refined coastal glamour, hosting Sorrento weddings of every size from intimate gatherings of 20 to grand celebrations of 200.
The venue's spaces span Art Deco grandeur and breezy seaside light. The Grand Ballroom dazzles with polished wooden floors and extravagant chandeliers, while Halcyon Hall, the largest room, frames the Sorrento foreshore through lofty windows and opens onto the Sunset Terrace. Built-in dancefloors, microphone and lectern, and projector-and-screen setups make each room celebration-ready.
The Continental is designed for the whole wedding journey under one roof: pre-ceremony drinks, ceremony, reception, late-night dancing at the Barlow speakeasy, on-site accommodation and a next-day recovery event. With 108 rooms at the adjoining InterContinental, dedicated wedding coordinators, menu tastings and coastal photography spots nearby, couples and guests can settle in and stay.

We're still finalising our partnership with The Continental Sorrento, so we can't forward leads to them just yet — sending now would mean your enquiry doesn't actually reach the venue.
