“Our experience at The Woolshed Yallah was amazing from the get-go. We visited a lot of wedding venues, and by far, The Woolshed was the most accommodating — we fell in love with the warm, cosy environment straight away. We were welcomed by all the staff, who were kind, professional and more than helpful throughout the whole experience. Everything ran smoothly, and our guests had nothing but positive things to say. The food was AMAZING. Very highly recommended.” - Tiffany P.

At The Woolshed we offer our wedding couples a 3-4 hour canape service. We love the idea of including a grazing table at the beginning of the wedding to help fill up your guests. Generally once the canapes slow up and finish it will leave 1 - 1 1/2 hrs of dancing.
