werribee mansion weddings

If you're dreaming of a wedding that feels like a romantic escape to a European estate—without ever leaving Melbourne—then Werribee Mansion is your place. Surrounded by ten acres of formal English gardens, heritage buildings, and softly lit tree-lined paths, this historic landmark feels like it was made for love stories.

Ceremony & Reception Spaces

The Theatre

Built in the 1930s, this elegant space is pure old-Hollywood romance. Ornate six-metre ceilings, classic French doors, and a private garden make it perfect for refined, intimate dinners or a full-blown black-tie reception.

The Marquee

Five chandeliers. Silk drapes. Timber floors. A marble-topped bar. If you're going for glamour, this one delivers in spades. Plus, there's a private al fresco terrace for cocktails under the stars.

The Pavilion

Light-filled, modern, and surrounded by views of the polo fields. This space brings the outside in—floor-to-ceiling windows and a decked-out lawn perfect for sunset drinks and lawn games.

Getting Ready & Staying Over

With 91 luxurious rooms and a full spa on-site, everything you need is steps away. You can both get ready in separate suites (with plenty of natural light), sneak in a calming massage, and know that after the last dance, your bed is just upstairs.

A Photographer’s Flow

Prep in the suites – Big windows, plush textures, and those pre-ceremony butterflies.

First look or ceremony – Garden ceremony under the trees, or a first look by the mansion façade.

Portraits – Explore the ivy walls, grand staircases, and gardens as the light changes. It’s the kind of place where even in-between moments look like a movie.

Golden hour – The wide lawns and fields catch the sun beautifully. Make time to step out just before dinner.

Reception & dance – Whether you’re in the marquee, pavilion or theatre, each space offers its own kind of magic. Twinkling lights. Refined interiors. And dance floors that fill fast.

Werribee Mansion is more than a venue—it’s an experience. Historic and modern, grand and intimate, it gives you space to breathe, celebrate, and feel completely looked after. Whether you’re planning something lavish or low-key, this place wraps your day in luxury without losing that easy, heartfelt charm.

Bring your love, your people, and your dancing shoes—Werribee Mansion will take care of the rest.
