FAQ

Our most popular option: the two-night weekend wedding

We truly believe your wedding should be more than just a few hours, it deserves a whole weekend of celebration! Our most popular option is the two-night weekend wedding, giving you the time and space to truly relax, connect, and make memories with your family and friends.

Here’s what a typical weekend looks like:

Friday - Arrive in the afternoon or evening and settle in with your closest friends and loved ones. Enjoy a relaxing night before the big day and wake up refreshed and ready.

Saturday - Spend the morning getting ready and adding the final touches with your family and friends. Then, enjoy your once-in-a-lifetime ceremony at the location of your choice. Afterward, head to our reception area to kick off the celebrations. Soak up the atmosphere in our rustic bar and expansive beer gardens. End the night gathered around the bonfire before retreating to bed.

Sunday - Enjoy a relaxed recovery breakfast and soak in those final moments with your guests before heading off with your heart full and your head buzzing with unforgettable memories.

We also offer single-night, day-only, and midweek wedding options

We don't allow camping onsite, but there are plenty of alternative accommodation options nearby, including the Big 4 Taggerty Holiday Park just a couple of minutes' drive away.

We know how important fur babies are for many. For our celebrations, we only allow the couple’s dog to join. Due to the working nature of our farm, the dog must be kept on a leash at all times. Please keep in mind that someone will need to be responsible for the dog throughout the celebration.

Our rustic bar is fully staffed for your wedding weekend, open from 12pm to 11pm each night. We’ll work with you to create a bar experience that suits your celebration perfectly.

Proudly brewed onsite, Bonfire Station Microbrewery has been handcrafting beer for over 15 years. You and your guests will enjoy a seasonal selection of our house-made beers, with something for every palate - from hoppy to malty, hazy to creamy, and everything in between (even something for your uncle who swears by Carlton Dry!).

In addition to our beers, we also offer our popular house-made ciders, as well as a thoughtfully curated selection of local wines, spirits and soft drinks, ensuring there’s something for everyone to raise a glass with.

We’re flexible with bar packages and can tailor the setup to suit your needs, preferences, and budget.

Please note: As a fully licensed venue, BYO is not permitted during bar opening hours.

Between our pavilion, bar building, and veranda, we have plenty of undercover space to keep everyone comfortable, rain or shine.

For ceremonies, most couples opt for our weekend package, which allows flexibility to adjust the schedule if needed. Alternatively, you can relocate under our pavilion or inside our building.

If you’d like additional coverage, you're welcome to bring in your own suppliers, or we can connect you with trusted local vendors for marquees and stretch tents

January 2026

We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect wedding venue than Bonfire Station. We had our ceremony and reception here in November 2025, and we truly had the best day of our lives thanks to this stunning venue and the team. Bonfire has the most breathtaking views of the Cathedral Ranges, beautiful open spaces, convenient onsite accommodation, and a relaxed atmosphere that our guests loved. The lakeside ceremony location was gorgeous, and the fire later in the evening created a great space to socialise during the breaks from dancing the barn. Florine and the entire team were exceptional. Communication in the lead-up was seamless, and on the day the staff made sure everything ran smoothly and that we and our guests were extremely well looked after, allowing us to completely relax and enjoy the day. The food was outstanding. We chose the Texas BBQ package, and guests are still raving about both the quality and quantity of the food (second helpings, yes please)! We couldn’t recommend Bonfire Station enough for anyone wanting a stunning venue and a relaxed, unforgettable wedding day.

April 2026

Bonfire Station is a beautiful, scenic and relaxing place to get married. Reasons why I loved it: - There were many different locations to get photos. - Owner and Director, Flo, was on top of everything, she kept track of requests and payments, she made organising easy, and she was so genuine and lovely it was such a pleasure working with her. - Food/drinks and accommodation options made it easy and a lot less stressful when planning the wedding. - plenty of different food options with the ability to bring your own vendors if you wanted something extra - Ability to store cakes and flowers in their fridges made logistics easy - staff were lovely and accommodating - plenty of location options for the ceremony. We loved our time at Bonfire Station. Thank you for having us ❤️

April 2026

Flo & Rob were super helpful throughout the whole process. From asking us questions that we hadn’t even thought about to giving us ideas aswell. They made planning our wedding fun and easy and most importantly stress free. Their wood fire pizzas, chips and beer is to die for. Could not have asked for a better venue and staff.

Brendan K.

Bonfire Station

Thanks so much, Brendan & Katelyn! We’re so glad we could help make the whole experience feel fun and stress-free. We absolutely loved hosting you and hope to see you back at Bonfire Station. All the very best with what’s next!

Regional, no sound curfew venue

Hey there, We're looking for a regional venue in Victoria that will allow us to play music until late until the night, ideally staying from Friday until Monday, with a recovery day on the Sunday. BYO alcohol would be amazing, but not essential. Accommodation at the venue would be great too (ideally sleeping at least 14 with accommodation available in the surrounding area for 100 or so guests).

Bonfire Station

Hi, here are a few points that might help you decide if Bonfire Station could be the right fit for you:

  • Country Victoria: Bonfire Station is a wedding and events venue set on a 1,000-acre family farm of rolling pastures and bushland, located about 90 minutes north-east of Melbourne.

  • Exclusive weekend celebration: You can book the venue for your wedding weekend — arrive Friday and celebrate on Saturday (ceremony, reception and party). We open our beer garden on Sunday afternoons, so the space is shared with our regular guests. However, you’re very welcome to stay onsite or explore the region and enjoy an extra night before leaving Monday.

  • On-site accommodation: We have accommodation onsite for up to 50 guests. There are also plenty of nearby accommodation options, including the Big4 Holiday Park in Taggerty, just a couple of minutes’ drive away.

  • Music: From 11pm, guests who are not staying onsite are required to leave the property, and music must be turned down to ambient levels.

  • Bar: We are a licensed venue (no BYO allowed) with a fully stocker bar, serving our own beers and ciders, and we can tailor bar packages to suit your celebration.


Do not hesitate to get in touch if you have more questions. 

Kind regards
Florine - Bonfire Station
