Weddings at Mewburn Park

Mewburn Park Homestead is set on 20 acres of gardens, and surrounded by our family’s farm of 300 acres. With this, there is ample space on our grounds to have your wedding day all in the one location. From your ceremony, to cocktail hour and photos through to your reception - you will enjoy stunning backdrops.

Our aim here at Mewburn Park is to create a relaxed day & night for our couples and their family and friends. We are here to make your dream a reality and offer our advice and experience to help you create a wedding day that represents you both.

How it works?
Choose the venue hire package that suits you best. Then add the beverage package and choose one of our hand picked caterers for everything food. We let you choose your ceremony spot (almost) anywhere you like, helping you to create that dreamy wedding ceremony that is unique for you two.

Mewburn Park is a licensed venue for up to 130 guests. For a more intimate celebration we have a minimum of 50 adult guests. For an event over 130 people we can apply for an extension for our liquor license, please contact us for more information.

Ceremonies

Have your ceremony in front of one of Victoria’s oldest brick buildings, the Mewburn Park Stables, or in our lush Homestead Gardens. If the weather is not on our side, we have a plan B organised for you, the ‘Old Farmer’s Shed’ - with its beautiful herringbone brick floor and old wooden beams. Once your ceremony is completed, your guests enjoy roaming canapés and drinks from our pop-up bar, while you cruise the property with your wedding party taking photos.

Marquee Reception

Our 25x10m clear-view marquee is the perfect blank canvas for your wedding reception.

Surrounded by the Homestead Gardens, you and your guests will feel a world away from the everyday.
The clear-view marquee comes with all the extras such as our beautifully polished concrete floor, fans, electric ceiling heaters, 1000 fairy lights, dimmable festoon lights and our extensive outside deck. A not so sexy (but important) fact is that the toilets are just a few steps away from the marquee entrance. There is also ample power in the marquee for live music, DJs and any feature lighting that you wanted to install.

The clear-view marquee can seat up to 130 seated or cocktail style. Included in the venue hire is all our furniture; light toned woods and white classic chairs and a set of lounges in the smoking area.

We can cater for up to 160 guests seated/180 cocktail style on request.
