Dalmore Farm
OVERVIEW
If you’ve always envisioned a breathtaking country wedding for yourself, complete with rolling hills, rocky vistas, old oak trees, and burbling creeks, then Dalmore Farm will be a dream come true. This historic, farm wedding venue is set on more than 250 acres of diverse land, offering complete tranquillity on your wedding day. More than that, it allows for some incredibly beautiful sights - both natural and man-made.
While the velvety Blackwood River Valley hills are certainly stars of the show, the newly-restored old buildings and historical sites are positively stunning, too. In particular, the Shearing Shed is divine, with owners Danny and Emilie completely making over this space for their own wedding.
The beautifully renovated Shearing Shed provides “modern convenience without losing antiquated charm”. Complete with hardwood floors, festoon lighting, cream-white walls with wooden features, and a series of bespoke ceiling fans - it’s a great fit for rustic weddings, country themes, and elegant occasions alike. Ceremonies, on the other hand, are either held in the flowery canopy of the pear orchard or in the back paddock - below majestic gum trees and surrounded by granite boulders.
Situated just 15 minutes from Bridgetown, WA, this BYO wedding venue is the perfect place to say ‘I do’ and take in a beautiful Australian landscape.
What you’ll love about working with Dalmore Farm for your South West WA wedding:
I vividly remember when my husband and I first arrived at Dalmore Farm while searching for our wedding venue—it felt surreal. We looked at each other and thought, ‘This is the one!’ It didn’t take long for us to decide because it just felt right—and it was.
We cannot thank Emily and her team enough for making our wedding day the best day ever! From the ceremony to the reception and throughout the planning process, we were able to relax, knowing every detail would be taken care of—and it was, better than we could have imagined. All of our friends and family are still talking about the stunning venue and the exceptional service.
To top it off, we feel so blessed to have met such an amazing group of people! Dalmore Farm is truly a place that keeps calling you back, and we’re already looking forward to returning for a farm stay in the future.
Thank you so much.

As we have built our family, with all of its two and four-legged members, over the years, we have felt a strong pull to share Dalmore with others.

Recommendations

Dalmore Farm
It is always possible for couples to find wedding venues to suit their budgets- the important thing is to be realistic about what your budget will achieve and recognise when your wish list exceeds your reality (which can be hard!). At Dalmore, a $15,000.00 all-in budget would not be sufficient to cover a wedding of 100 people but there are other venues that would certainly suit such a budget. Additionally, while Dalmore is an elegant country estate, it is a heritage-listed coutry estate- and would not suit couples who are looking for a very modern aesthetic or an urban vibe.
