The ‘I do’s’…

Our estate has 70 acres for you to find the perfect spot to tie the knot. Be surrounded by manicured gardens, roses in bloom, and decorative fountains. Let the sunset become part of your wedding palette during your ceremony with your closest friends and family.

Walk down the aisle in our Manor Garden located a few steps from your bridal preparation room in this secluded and intimate garden setting.

Gaze into each others eyes as you exchange vows in our ‘Between the Urns’ ceremony with the timeless and classic Hunter Valley countryside as the backdrop. Say ‘I do’ when the wisterias are in bloom and add a delightful floral burst of colour to your ceremony.
