OVERVIEW

Oh hi there!

We are thrilled you found us.

Mewburn Park, 2.5hrs east of Melbourne, is a 400 acre private property and working farm offering a beautiful colonial Homestead dating from the 1850’s, as is the heritage listed brick stables.

Located in the heart of Gippsland’s food and wine region and tucked behind an oak tree lined driveway, the sanctuary of Mewburn Park has lush gardens, tranquil walkways and ponds that ooze serenity.

The Homestead is wrapped with a huge verandah, taking you back to the glorious 1920’s, while the Servant’s Quarters take you back even further to the colonial 1850’s. Mewburn Park offers a range of locations, helping couples create a wedding that is unique for them & their guests.

Homestead Gardens
The established gardens at the front of the Homestead offer a botanical garden vibe for ceremonies. Guests will arrive through the meandering garden paths, bringing them to the couples exclusive area of huge old oak trees, palms, fish pond and open lawns.

Mewburn Park Ponds
Mewburn Park has tranquil pond areas, offering a stunning ceremony space where couples can have English trees as a backdrop, or the rustic open farm land of Mewburn Park.

The Stables
Mewburn Park’s heritage listed Stables offer a beautiful spot for intimate ceremonies in the courtyard. Draped in festoon lights, this festive space helps create a unique experience for all guests. The Stables pop up bar also allows guests to enjoy this private and secluded area before the evening begins at the reception.

The Marquee
Slowly make your way into Mewburn Park’s clear view marquee; where guests can take in the ‘farmcharm’ that surrounds and the stars from above. The 25 x 10 metre marquee offers plenty of space for a sit down evening or a relaxed cocktail party with tables, chairs and festoon lights all included. We just updated our tables and chairs and polsihed the concrete floor - all for the most amazing night under the stars.

The Retreat Suite
Within the 1850’s Servant’s Quarters of Mewburn Park Homestead, the boutique Retreat Suite is tucked away. Offering a quiet space for brides and co. to relax and prepare for the day ahead.

    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.

    Mewburn Park is the most dreamy venue. It was the first and only venue we looked at for our wedding. The grounds are STUNNING! Honestly one of the hardest decisions of all the wedding planning was deciding where on the grounds to have the ceremony, because there were SO many beautiful options. And then there’s the glorious clear marquee with a ceiling full of fairy lights. Finally, another reason Mewburn Park is so great, is its beautiful owners Julia and Adam. Julia and Adam are so easy to work with, nothing is a hassle. Mewburn Park gave us the wedding of our dreams, and for that we will be forever grateful.

    Mewburn Park is incredible-not just the venue itself but the team led by Julia and Adam as well! Nothing is too difficult to achieve and they are such professionals! My husband and I were lucky enough to meet at a Mewburn Park wedding in their first season years ago so it was only fitting we went back there to get married recently because we had so much fun and LOVED the property. The venue has become even more beautiful with so many different spots and areas to utilize in the property and really make it your own! I got ready at the homestead the morning of and Julia made it so seamless and relaxing. She was ready to switch to Plan B at the very last minute when the rain threatened us and handled every problem without us even knowing on the day. We cannot say enough good things about Mewburn Park! AMAZING!

    Our overall experience was great Julia and Adam were fantastic. There are a few extra rules and regulations that we weren’t aware of until later but that was our fault for not reading our contract it was definitely all layed out. Staff were amazing the venue is absolutely stunning!! It is in the more expensive side when you add up drinks packages as well as venue hire but they really do an amazing job.

    When's the best time to do the champagne tower?

    We'd love to do a champagne tower at our wedding - when do you suggest fitting it in the formalities/timeline?

    Mewburn Park Homestead

    At our venue it's most of the time done just before speeches, so everyone is watching and then get's a Champagne for all the happy toasting. We also ahve done them right after the ceremony as you also have a Chamapagne to toast to the newly weds. Either way is beautiful and generates happy guests and great photos!
