The hall costs $2500 (including a $500 refundable bond) for a 3-day hire, and has the benefit of allowing you to BYO, choose your own caterer, and self-style or bring in your choice of stylist.Albion Farm Gardens do have furniture and styling items for hire, selected specifically to compliment the hall space.

Albion Farm Gardens offers you exclusive use of the gardens for your wedding photographs. There are many locations in the garden that your photographer can use as a beautiful backdrop for your wedding photos. Our most popular locations are the Wisteria Walk, the Boston Ivy Rotunda, the Muse and the Boat House Garden near the Ornamental Lake.
If you prefer to see the more architectural elements of the garden you will love a winter wedding. The stunning shapes of the garden are on display at this time of year with raw timbers and stone walls exposed. There are parts of our garden that are still lush and green in winter, you may even find special trees in bloom.
We have available an electric golf buggy with a driver so you are taken personally to all the best photographic locations. Every season has its own garden wedding advantages. Spring has the most flower, while Autumn & early Winter start to bring in those golden hues. Never forget about Winter. The days are usually sunny and the gardens are still full of life.
Music creates an intimate, warm and memorable touch that adds greatly to any special event. Whether you are planning an indoor or outdoor wedding ceremony, live music is key to creating the right atmosphere for your wedding. Gabi specialises in light classical, modern and Celtic wedding violin music and is known for her passionate and romantic violin sound.

Albion Farm Gardens are a magical secret garden of dreams come to life! I do not believe a more beautiful place exists. Kate is an absolute angel to work with, she goes above and beyond to ensure your day at the gardens is as special as possible. The gardens are cared for and manicured to perfection. It is truly one of my favourite places in the world! Thank you Kate for helping our dreams come to life!

You could add this location to the list of the wonders of the world - it is simply a magical place, and Kate and her family are a pure joy! The gardens are simply stunning and there were endless locations on the grounds to explore and capture beautiful moments. The wedding went off without a hitch, in large part due to Kate and her absolutely tremendous help and support. She made our day just spectacular and I would recommend this location to anyone wanting a truly fantastic experience

There is nothing else quite like Albion Farm in this area for a wedding. Having accommodation, ceremony, photos + reception onsite make for a stress-free day without having to waste time driving around. The gardens are meticulously kept and a photographer's dream. Couldn't recommend this spot strongly enough!

Albion Farm is one of the most amazing places I've ever been. The gardens and surrounding grounds are extremely beautiful, verging on haunting, but captivating. I spent a good few hours wandering the grounds, taking the sights and wonders that filled every corner of the property with some really friendly and very approachable people that live there, who were the ones who developed and continually maintain such an inspirational place. Every angle has been thought of by using sculptures, plants, trees, gardens, ponds, and pathways to convey an immortal place that can bring people in droves to enjoy

It was such a joy to get married at Albion Farm Gardens this month. The barn, farm and gardens are just beautiful. Even better, Kate, her family and the team made the whole experience a pleasure. We were overwhelmed by their warmth and generosity – they made us feel more like friends than clients. Kate is incredibly organised, with plenty of good advice to help things run smoothly. She worked so hard to make our wedding day beautiful. At every stage she did more than we had expected or anticipated.

What words can we use to say how amazing our wedding day was at Albion Farm Gardens! Kate and her team (shout out to Yolanda) are exceptional! We got married in the air-conditioned barn this January for our Summer wedding and had our photos in the Gardens, it was simply beautiful! Every single guest was blown away at how fantastic our Ceremony was in such an amazing setting. The Barn and Gardens speak for themselves and are just stunning! However, it is Kate and her team’s professionalism and exceptionalism that I cannot rate highly enough. Every single element was taken care of from pre- to

After visiting many other wedding venues Albion Gardens was by far the most beautiful and well setup for weddings. Kate and her team were amazing. Even the slightest detail was taken care of and everything went without a hitch. Can't thank you enough for all your hard work in making our wedding such a perfect day for us and our family and guests.

Kate and her team at the gardens are sensational. Kate's attention to detail and absolute drive to give the best experience she possibly could has endeared her to me forever. She was both professional and personable and probably one of the most genuinely caring people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. The gardens are incredibly well maintained through obvious hard work and all of our guests had many, many great compliments to give about the beautiful scenery and the smoothness of the day.
I was completely trusting of Kate's opinions, ideas and experience and was not disappointed in return

We couldn’t rate Albion Farm Gardens more highly. The gardens speak for themselves as a stunning back drop to our beautiful day. We really had a sense of exclusivity, and as if the place was our own. Our guests were made to feel so welcome and comfortable, including my Grandparents who were whisked away in a golf buggy to enjoy the refreshments in the gardens! Everything about Albion Farm Gardens is magical, and from the moment you arrive, you get a sense of being somewhere very unique and special. The ceremony in the barn was spectacular and everything we hoped it would be. No detail was missed
