The Great Ocean Road Coast Committee Inc (GORCC) is responsible for management of 37 kilometres of Foreshore from Point Impossible at Torquay to the Cumberland River at Lorne, excluding the Bells Beach Surfing Reserve. Each year GORCC receives numerous requests for weddings and other celebrations to take place on the foreshore reserve.

In line with the Coastal Management Strategy, GORCC has a responsibility to manage the foreshore in ways which are ecologically sustainable, thereby ensuring the preservation of our coastal and marine environments for current and future use. This includes monitoring activities such as weddings on the Reserve.
