The Farm was our perfect wedding venue! We loved the relaxed nature of the venue and the gorgeous green surrounds. Cat and the Farm team were incredible on the day and in the lead up - looking after our every need and making the whole day run so smoothly. The team pivoted to make things work despite wet weather, and we had the most amazing celebration. The food was incredible and plentiful, and the barn transforms into the most beautiful event space. We got such lovely feedback from our guests about how unique, personal and relaxed the event was. This will always be a special spot with lovely memories for us.

Collingwood Children’s Farm provides a venue that feels like you are out in the countryside with all the convenience of an inner city location. As soon as we inspected the site we were certain it was where we wanted to get married. We loved the atmosphere created by having our guests walk past the animals to the ceremony site and the cozy and intimate feeling of the reception in the barn. The rustic feel of the farm takes away a lot of the pressure, everything just feels so natural! Our planner, Alice, was amazing to work with – very responsive and detailed oriented – she helped us make our wedding come to life in only a few months. Lastly, the food was a stand-out of stand-outs and still has many of our guests raving every time they see us.

WOW! Just WOW! We could not have asked for a better wedding at the Collingwood Children's Farm. The reception venue looked amazing with a rustic vibe, open fire and indoor/outdoor places for guests to mingle. The food was in abundance and delicious. The vibe that was created by Cat and the team was exactly as we wanted it to be - relaxed, fun and filled with love. It was perfect. Our ceremony was under the oak tree and it was amazing, such a beautiful setting to have our ceremony. We loved it. One of the huge advantages of having your wedding at Collingwood Children's Farm is Cat and her amazing team. Cat made us feel special and welcomed from the moment we met her. It was so easy to work with Cat and the team to have everything organised. They were incredible!! Definitely recommend them so highly!!

Omg what didn't they do, Cat was amazing, the food was spectacular and all the guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves. They were so accommodating even when we had some last minute changes (unexpected) but there was no stress on our day. All the staff there were amazing!!!
