About

2011 marked a significant milestone at The Barn Wallington – it was the year we celebrated our first wedding, and it just happened to be our own. We exchanged vows in our gorgeous barn, surrounded by loved ones, and it was an unforgettable experience. Our wedding was a reflection of us, with festoon lights, champagne and gelato vans, to make the day truly special. From that day, we have been committed to helping every couple realise their dream wedding, tailored to them, just like we enjoyed.

Couldn’t recommended The Barn Wallington high enough. A venue that has it all - beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces, filled with everything you need. Our wedding was going to be outside among the tall gum trees, though a last minute weather change meant we moved it all indoor the rustic Barn. With spacious room for all guests, fire places on, leather Chesterfield couches, woollen blankets, festoon lights twinkling - it opened up the world of possibilities easily and effortlessly for all. The amazing owners G and John went above and beyond to make our dreams come true.

Recently, I was lucky enough to host an event at The Barn Wallington. This was an absolutely stunning venue, that not only blew my guests away, but captured the all the Bellarine has to offer, in a bespoke rustic venue. My events vision was easily achieved with the amazing support of the The Barn’s management team. I could not recommend this stunning venue enough!

Loved having our wedding at The Barn. Weather stopped us from having the ceremony outside but we pivoted and had it in The Barn, and it was magical. Great having the ceremony then reception all in one place. Glenys and John were fantastic to deal with. And our wedding photos turned out amazing. Highly recommend. Damien and Clair x

The Barn truly did look magical on your special day Clair and Damien, and I loved the gorgeous gelato food cart inside. Just divine.

Pros and cons of a cocktail wedding

We are looking for some reasonable priced venues in Geelong and Bellarine pennisula We are inviting around 150 people and are looking for a rustic vibe for our wedding. We would love any advice you have. Also if you have any pros/cons of a cocktail wedding would be great!

The Barn Wallington

When it comes to the choice of a cocktail or seated reception, we find the results split fairly evenly with our clients.

Many opt for the more relaxed casual affair of a cocktail celebration, enjoying the opportunity to mingle with their guests throughout the entire event. Food trucks make cocktail-style events even more unexpected and fun.

The remaining 50% of clients love the idea of a more traditional seated function, with the added perk of being able to control where guests are seated. A more structured celebration, you can time speeches with food service. Remember, it is your day, so do what YOU want! It's not uncommon for our table set-ups to feature the happy couple seated amongst guests, with no bridal table.

At the end of the day your wedding "celebration" should truly be celebrated how you desire.
