Venues Reviews

Pioneer Country was such a beautiful venue. Our wedding felt so easy and worry free with Sarah helping us plan and the team at Pioneer Country were all so lovely and helpful. Our photos are incredible because the barn and property are so beautiful! Highly recommend

What can I say about this venue. Fergusson hosted our wedding in March of 2025 and it was everything we could have hoped for. Sarah & Sara are SO wonderful to deal with that organising our wedding in just 4 months was a dream. We love the atmosphere and food at the venue, we visited 6+ times over the last few months with our friends and family who all loved it. We opted to have our ceremony on the lawn facing the vines and Sarah was more than happy to accommodate this new idea we had and it turned out SO beautiful. With the venue giving exclusive access to the winery for the wedding no matter the size of the wedding it will feel intimate and all to yourself to celebrate with your loved ones. There is multiple, beautiful options for the Ceremony which was a real appeal for this venue as the wet weather options are also beautiful and often chosen as first choice which was actually hard to find at other venues so was a huge tick. Lots of menu options to choose from for the reception as well as table configuration options - Sarah goes beyond to make your vision come to life. We can't recommend it more.

My husband & I held a very intimate and personal wedding in February 2025, it was beyond perfection for a micro wedding. There was 15 people in total it was very romantic and gave me all the feels that I was wishing and hoping for. The beautiful old chapel has such charm and really brings in the vintage vibe I was wanting. The surrounding area was just perfect for photos and holding a small cocktail hour in the garden. Simply bliss. Xx

The venue is incredible. Picturesque is an understatement and you don't even need to leave the venue to take beautiful photos. The staff (Victoria & Goulvan) were amazing. They ensured the whole night went smoothly and that we were happy at every point. They worried about everything so that we didn't have to. If we could get married again we would do it here.. Victoria was amazing to deal with the entire time. Highly recommend!

Julia and the team was so warm and friendly. We felt so comfortable the entire time and also were made to feel really special. The photographer, Lisa knew the property so well, and took us to all the beautiful spots and made sure we were there at the right time. Our friends hadn’t been to Mewburn Park before and all commented on how beautiful it was. Can’t thank Mewburn Park, Evie Wilson @ Peace and Love and Lisa Hayman enough for such a fantastic day.

We married on October 16th 2025 - From the start of planning our wedding to the very end of our day , Hollie was such a pleasure to deal with and everything that we asked of her and the venue was no trouble and very accommodating. Anything we needed she adapted and was there to help. Her staff including the chef were all so friendly and really helpful. Nothing ever was an issue

We cannot recommend Manly Pavillion enough! We had the best day of our lives and couldn’t be happier with how everything went. Sherlie and the team were so attentive, helpful and wonderful to work with. We felt so well looked after and had a lovely bridal attendant on the day. The food was incredible and our guests haven’t stopped raving about it. One of my favourite things about Manly Pavillion was how easy they made wedding planning. We opted to go with the in-house florist, who did such an incredible job with the flowers and made our vision come to life. We also got our cake through them, and each flavour was delicious. We wish we could do it all again! Thank you Boathouse!

The Boathouse Shelly Beach were great to deal with from the start. From our first meeting we knew we wanted to have our Wedding there. The venue is very special, but the staff take it to the next level. They were so accommodating, efficient and lovely. The staff that worked on the night of our small wedding were excellent. They were friendly, efficient and made the night so wonderful. Everyone commented on how good the food and wine was. We had such an amazing night and can't thank them enough.
