Weddings in Port Fairy
Port Fairy is one of Victoria’s best-loved coastal towns. Fishing boats line the Moyne River, old bluestone cottages and Norfolk pines fill the streets, and a short walk across to Griffiths Island brings you to the lighthouse.
It is also a town that loves music, home to the Port Fairy Folk Festival every March. Couples marrying here usually want great music to be a big part of their day, and guests come expecting a celebration with plenty of character.
As your Port Fairy wedding DJ and MC, James is based just down the road in Warrnambool. He knows the area, plans every part of the night with you and fills the dance floor with songs your guests will love.
On the day
Being local, we arrive early and set up calmly, test every microphone and speaker, and confirm the plan with your venue. For outdoor ceremonies, we choose the most sheltered spot and have a back-up ready.
James welcomes your guests, introduces the wedding party and keeps the speeches and dinner on time. After the first dance, the music lifts and the celebration rolls on in true Port Fairy style.
What’s included
A playlist shaped around your taste, from classic singalongs to current hits.
Personal, polished hosting for speeches, entrances and the first dance.
Clear sound for riverside, garden, church and beach ceremonies.
Lighting that gives a heritage room or marquee real party atmosphere.
Local know-how
The Folk Festival in March fills every bed in town. Check the date before you book, or embrace it and book accommodation very early.
Older buildings can have limits on power, noise and decorations. Ask your venue early so the setup suits the space.
Wind off the water can be cool, even in summer. Have a sheltered spot and a back-up for outdoor ceremonies.
Wedding settings
Port Fairy couples choose from heritage function rooms and historic buildings in town, riverside and garden ceremonies along the Moyne, beach and lighthouse photos, and rural properties nearby. Each setting needs a slightly different setup, from discreet sound in a heritage room to wind-ready audio by the water.
Heritage and coastal venues each run differently, so check the details with our venue questions checklist and plan your evening with our reception timeline guide.

James was an absolute pleasure to have as our DJ for the wedding. He kept us informed from the day we booked him, and as we were getting closer to the day, he checked in with playlists, timing for the night etc. A last minute change of our ceremony venue due to weather had to be made — James was able to help out with music for our Ceremony.
