Dreamy autumn wedding at scenic homestead.

Ali was so lovely to work with and made all the small details for our wedding easy to organise and arrange. The location and time of year we were married, made the homestead look incredibly beautiful with the autumn leaves. We had a bit of a windy day, but there are multiple areas to hid from the wind to then enjoy it all. Beautiful location and perfect for everything I dreamt about for our wedding.

Barunah Plains: Perfect Wedding Venue & Getaway

Barunah plains was the most perfect wedding venue for us. A beautiful canvas that allows you to bring in your own suppliers and decorations. Also the perfect getaway for you & all your guests. Ali was amazing to deal with through the whole process of planning the wedding. Especially during covid times she was flexible and worked with us offering reassurance and options for all the obstacles of restrictions. Could not recommend Barunah plains enough.

Wedding Bliss at The Homestead

The most perfect venue for the wedding of my dreams! Not only are the homestead and grounds spectacularly beautiful but thanks to the amazing Ali and her team there is an incredible aura around the place that really helps create a happy, loving and fun vibe for the bridal party staying at the homestead and all the guests. Thank you Ali for helping make our wedding weekend the most wonderful experience of our lives. I wish I could get married here every year!

Dream Venue: No Curfew, On-Site Accommodation

Seriously the most perfect wedding venue. Our top priorities for our wedding were to have an option for guests to stay (shearer's quarter's and glamping tents), and no curfew so the dance floor could go all night long. Our recovery day was by the pool next to the homestead and it was SO much fun. Our phones have been going off with messages from our wedding guests saying that was the best wedding they've been to...... And we'd have to thank the property and location for that!

Barunah Plains: Dreamy Wedding Venue!

Barunah Plains is dreamy! We chose it for our wedding because we knew we wouldn’t have to do much to set the scene, and boy did it deliver! We got married on a rainy March day and it felt like we were on an old English homestead. The sunny day BBQ by the pool the next day meant that everyone could fully appreciate the gorgeous grounds. We’re so happy we could have all of our closest friends stay with us all weekend. Barunah plains is an amazing venue, and Ali and Damian make everything so easy.

Barunah Plains: The Perfect Country Wedding Venue

Barunah Plains was the perfect backdrop to our perfect day. We celebrated over a full weekend with our nearest and dearest all staying on the property, both in their on-site accommodation and in additional glamping tents. We have had so many people comment on what an amazing time they had and how much the event inspired their future weddings. Ali and Damien were so wonderful and helped bring our dream wedding to life, even in the face of La Niña threatening our plans.

Barunah Plains: A Dream Wedding Venue!

We were lucky enough to have had our wedding at Barunah Plains in December 2020. The owners and their team have done an incredible amount of work to the property including the homestead, which is impeccably styled inside and out. The gardens and surrounding landscape is immaculate and maintains its country charm. It is the perfect setting for any event, particularly weddings with countless options for the location of the ceremony and reception as well as photos.
