About

As a graziers daughter returning to the land after over a decade spent in Brisbane & London, I have rekindled a love for the countryside and absolute appreciation for my roots. Being able to share our beautiful home and offer a high quality service and good old country hospitality as well as offering the paddock to plate experience, creates an experience where our couples arrive as our clients, and leave as our friends.

Not only is Bunnyconnellen a beautiful venue, it is run by the most beautiful people. Thank you Kate and Oliver for making our day so special.

Kate the organiser makes you feel your day is going to be amazing and is genuinely excited for you. She generally took the time to understand our ideas and do whatever we wanted. The venue is beautiful and they are very accomodating. They organised all the platters, food and drink. They called me a few days before to double check the run sheet. Our guests had an amazing time and everyone said it was stunning. We didn't book a traditional package as we had a unique style wedding which was exactly what we wanted.

This is an amazing venue. The help and guidance given to us by the wedding planner Kate Stewart-Moore couldn't have been more helpful. They helped with the planning of the meal which was wonderful on the night, tasted out of this world and couldn't have been better presented. The beautiful choice of wines, the amazing Wedding Cake, flowers, decorations and just the total friendliness of Owners, Ninian, Ann and Kate Stewart -Moore and all the staff. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful Wedding Day. It all went way too fast.
