Earth Sanctuary I Do!

Congratulations! What an exciting time for you and your partner. A wedding is a beautiful celebration and our team at Earth Sanctuary will work

closely with you to create a personalised wedding day, leaving you and your guests with special memories to last a lifetime.


Our aim is to help you create a wedding day that is as unique and individual as you are.

Earth Sanctuary World Nature Centre is located 15 minutes from Alice Springs and is beautifully positioned to showcase your big day. Nestled amongst the red sands of the central desert, the Sanctuary offers breathtaking views of the Eastern MacDonnell Ranges and guarantees visitors a truly unique experience, one which they will find impossible to forget.


The Sanctuary is a fully licensed venue catering for up to 250 guests with dining available in the barn or, at your request, under the magical starry skies of Central Australia. In addition to a unique reception area, our Amphitheatre, framed by Mulga arches against a backdrop of Mt Undoolya, is a popular place to host your ceremony at no extra charge. The Sanctuary really does provide the perfect place for all your wedding day needs.
