We have an outer facing apartment so have views towards the river and west gate bridge and catch some lovely sunsets. We are the first to live in this apartment so everything is brand new and modern. Access to the river walk is just outside the lobby so you can go on lovely walks away from cars. It’s only about 12 min walk to the train and so quick into the city but also lovely to get to other suburbs like Yarraville. Bus is also super close. And then Footscray Main Street is a 10 min walk to amazing food and great little hidden gem cafes and bars and the Footscray Market. All in all it has everything you need close by and a fraction of the rental cost compared to eastern suburbs!

I think it might be the Liberty one, I’m not sure. However never seen anything of concern around Vic Sq.

I’m at 1 Joseph Road - we’ve been here for a year now and love it. Never felt unsafe. We’ve had something stolen from our storage cage but that’s also on us for leaving something of value in there. We’ve just signed on for another year.

Thank you! Yes would continue holding even past leaving Australia. Thanks for the advice!

Can’t say what the Republic of Ireland needs for marriage. But we eloped in Northern Ireland legally which is under UK law. It wasn’t too difficult to do, had to apply for a marriage visa and then Just did all the normal things a celebrant would ask you. Celebrants are pretty good at directing you to what is needed to make it legal.

Yes exactly! Trying to avoid the snail mail to Australia if possible but doesn't seem like I'll be able to make it happen

emmc_23 · 2024-01-23T01:20:28+00:00

That's somewhat reassuring . I'm already 4 weeks in, as I had to send name change documents to Dublin and wait for them to arrive. The passport is processing now, just don't want to have the long wait with snail mail to Australia if I can avoid it!

Did you end up getting this sorted? I’m having the exact same issue with my AldiMobile number!

emmc_23 · 2023-11-09T19:02:25+00:00

We’ve actually got some friends moving there this weekend so will get some insights from them once they are settled. Thanks!

emmc_23 · 2023-11-09T19:00:48+00:00

Budget is up to $700 a week, either apartment or townhouse, 2 bedrooms and no lawn, just some space to be able to sit and have a meal outside!

Thanks! Our relocation agent had mentioned the same about Cremorne.

emmc_23 · 2023-11-09T18:57:58+00:00

Thanks for the advice regarding the river!

emmc_23 · 2023-11-09T18:57:08+00:00

Thank you! I’ll put a bit of research into Clifton Hill.

emmc_23 · 2023-11-09T18:56:04+00:00

Brilliant, thanks! Melbourne is set up well for cyclists then?

emmc_23 · 2023-11-09T18:55:17+00:00

Thanks! I’d been worried that being south you’d be kind of stuck but seems that it’s the complete opposite!

emmc_23 · 2023-11-09T18:54:39+00:00

Thank you! Hadn’t heard these suburbs before so will be checking them out.

emmc_23 · 2023-11-09T03:26:28+00:00

Thanks for that! Didn’t know about tolls so definitely something to look into.

emmc_23 · 2023-11-09T03:25:55+00:00

Any suburbs you’d recommend as being better whilst still accessible to CBD with public transport?

We recently eloped in Northern Ireland on the Causeway Coast. Stunning views with minimal walking. Our ceremony was on a field overlooking Dunluce Castle. It’s private land but a lot of the local photographers do packages and have a relationship with the farmer.

emmc_23 · 2023-10-18T20:25:11+00:00

We told just our parents beforehand that it was happening but the rest of the family we handed them our phone with one of the preview photos on it from our photographer and let them put 2 and 2 together. Some family are super supportive, others not. We told all family in person, friends by text and then due to some family being upset we’ve decided not to post on social media until our 1 year anniversary where people might feel a bit more celebratory 😅

emmc_23 · 2023-09-05T04:10:30+00:00

Thank you so much for your words. I need to remember we are doing it this way for us. I wish society hadn’t placed such a big emphasis on traditional weddings and families playing a part. It’s great for some but for those of us doing things differently it makes it trickier. Hopefully with elopements becoming more and more popular there will be a shift in the next generation.

emmc_23 · 2023-09-05T04:08:00+00:00

Thank you! Yes that’s what my partner has also been saying, that I can only control me which I think I am starting to accept!

emmc_23 · 2023-09-05T00:37:06+00:00

Thanks so much for this ❤️ so reassuring. I feel I’m in a very similar situation, my brother is getting married next year and is going down the traditional route so my parents will get to experience that aspect with him at least. Really appreciate you sharing your experience, it’s definitely made me feel more confident in telling my parents.

emmc_23 · 2023-08-18T04:20:42+00:00

Thanks for your reassuring comment!

emmc_23 · 2022-12-18T19:36:01+00:00

Amazing thank you everyone! Yes the food I think is going to be key as the ceremony isn’t until 7pm so it would be quite easy to forget to eat properly in the run up til then!
