LAUNCHING OUR “Let’s Runaway” - THE NEVER BEFORE RUNWAY STYLE CEREMONY

Step into a Dream: A European Estate Style Wedding Experience

Are you dreaming of a wedding that feels like stepping into a luxury European estate? Your dream is about to become a reality with our brand-new, one-of-a-kind runway-style ceremony.

This unique concept, which our stylist has been dreaming up, is finally here, offering a fresh, luxury and unprecedented approach to wedding ceremonies in Australia.

The NEVER BEFORE SEEN Runway…

Imagine a ceremony where guests are seated runway style, the soft glow of candlelight illuminates a lush floral aisle, stylish fabric draping adds a touch of elegance, creating a truly magical atmosphere. BUT THE TWIST IS you are both meeting IN THE MIDDLE at a stunning round stage centred in our beautiful arbour. But that's not all – our runway-style ceremony redefines tradition with a unique "let's do this together" entry.

THE NEW Ceremony Entry THATS SET TO BE A TREND SETTER…

Gone are the days of nervousness when walking down the aisle. With our reinvention of the ceremony entry, which is designed to be the ultimate symbol of unity.

We are setting a new trend where your bridal party is timed to walk down the aisle and meet in the middle at the same time. Our venue, with dual access, is perfectly suited for this concept, symbolizing that love is shared and each person is celebrated equally in partnership.

This untraditional wedding concept is designed to make your wedding day unlike anything you've seen before. Our planner and stylist have meticulously thought through every detail, where each partner will walk, photo ideas, seating map and even how your photographer will capture this unforgettable moment.where both partners walk towards each other simultaneously, creating a moment signifying that your love is a partnership, each step towards each other a symbol that you are IN THIS TOGETHER.

Think first look but in front of your guests - this is our way of creating an inclusive entry which is perfect for all couples, including same-sex weddings, allowing each partner to shine equally.

And yes, your bridal party all walk in at the same time too, and you can still have a family member give you away - making a grand statement that will surprise and delight your guests.

THE NEW TWILIGHT TIMELINE

We are also flipping the script on wedding timelines and offering TWILIGHT CEREMONIES! Where games and canapes are first and your bridal party can enjoy the daylight with guests, perhaps a champagne tower or gelato cart could make an appearance.

You could even have an OUTFIT change prior to moving into your ceremony under candlelight, stunning draped lighting and this will make for some gorgeous moody photos like something our of a movie scene.

Creating Dream Days

We are committed to creating dream days for our couples, offering a wedding experience that is as unique as your love story. Our runway-style ceremony is more than just a wedding; it's a statement of love, unity, and celebration and it will only be available to select couples that are wanting luxury and guest numbers to suit the deisgn.

The Once a Year Wedding: Luxury Alfresco Wedding for Stephanie & Matthew

Photos by Lisa Lent Photography

At Fernbank Farm, we take pride in offering a luxury alfresco wedding setup that is truly unparalleled. This exclusive experience is reserved for only one or two couples per year, ensuring that each celebration is as unique and magical as the love stories we honor.

Step into the enchanting world of Stephanie and Matthew’s dream wedding, a day where reality blurred into a fairy tale…

How the wedding flowed…

The Arbour Ceremony: A Promise in Paradise

The journey began in our exquisite arbour ceremony space. As Stephanie walked down the aisle, the gentle rustling of leaves and the soft whispers of the wind set the stage for their vows. The arbour, adorned with lush flowers and trailing vines, created a picturesque frame for their love and exchange of promises.

Somersby Pebble Trees: A Culinary Prelude

After the ceremony, guests were led through the winding lawns to the Somersby Pebble trees, where their family and friends played games, laughed, feasted on oysters, canapes and tasty couples cocktails.

The Lake Edge Marquee: Dining Under the Stars

As twilight descended, the party made its way to our gorgeous lake edge marquee. Draped in fairy lights and flower garlands, the marquee glowed against the night sky. Inside, tables were set with precision, each place setting a testament to our commitment to luxury and detail.

Dancing Under the Italian Crystal Chandelier: A Night to Remember

With dinner concluded, the celebration moved to our marquee area overlooking the waters of the lake. Here, under the grandeur of our Italian Crystal Chandelier, Stephanie and Matthew shared their first dance with cold spark fireworks and guests joined them on the dance floor, with a Tongan traditional dance and the joyous rhythm of their family band.

A Truly Bespoke Experience

At Fernbank Farm, we pride ourselves on creating wedding experiences that are as unique as the couples we celebrate. Our luxury alfresco setup is the pinnacle of bespoke elegance, offered only once or twice a year to ensure every detail is perfect.

Brides Review:

The most beautiful and stunning place you could ever dream of having your wedding!

My partner and I are over the moon with the experience we had at Fernbank Farm.

From the moment we booked, Esther was extremely reliable and professional in all her dealings with us and made us feel so at ease with the organisation and lead-up to the big day.

I absolutely HATE planning and organising things and Esther went above and beyond to cater for exactly what we wanted, taking away so much stress on the big day. Nothing was too much to ask of her and I honestly don’t know how to thank her enough for making our wedding day more than we could’ve dreamed of.

With so much included in our package, it left very little for us to have to organise on our own.

We stayed on site the night before and night of our wedding and the accommodation and facilities exceeded our expectations.

The old heritage house was so beautiful to stay in!

With its natural beauty, touched up with beautiful and elegant stylings by Esther the venue was absolutely perfect!

Our guests had the most amazing time and raved about the venue and how impressed they were afterwards.

I would hands down recommend Fernbank Farm to anyone out there searching for the perfect venue, it will not disappoint.

Ashley & Daves Wedding - Couple Feedback - Covid & Flooding

Ashely & Dave:

“We have nothing but positive feedback to share on the way you guys helped us and dealt with the whole Covid situation.

You were always available to talk over possible options that we had with the changing restrictions, you had endless options for indoor and outdoor weddings, solutions to the restrictions on people, the restrictions on dancing (with pool games, etc) and you just made us feel a lot less stressed about whether or not our wedding would be the day we wanted.

Talking to you guys about our plans each time the restrictions changed made us confident that no matter what the restrictions were on the day, you guys would make sure we had the best wedding ever - and we really did! We also loved that we were able to come out and visit the venue to check out new styling options etc. And the back up wet weather option was beautiful too so we weren't worried about the weather at all (other than those floods that threatened to put an end to our wedding the week before).

On the floods, you always kept us updated on developments with power restoration and opening roads and we always trusted that you guys had every interest in making our wedding day happen.

It honestly felt like you would move heaven and Earth to make our wedding day happen as best you could with the Covid restrictions.” <3

Fernbank Style is always in the ATTENTION TO detail...

One of the things Fernbank staff pride ourselves in is our attention to detail…this is after all one of the most momentous of life occasions.

We want our couples to look back on their day with glowing eyes and the fondest of memories so every touch is important to us.

If you want a wedding designed specifically for you with beautiful details that shine in your photos then we are the venue for you ;)

Marie-Claire & Jakes Magical Day

Date: 28th January 2018

It all began on a beautiful Summers day, the horses were adorned in their custom bridals and the flowers were hanging from our rustic chandelier under the Fig Tree. 

The Lake Edge was set with our long marquees, flowers hanging from the rafters and fairly lights strung on the beams making for what will be a magical evening!

The Bride was happily dressing in our Heritage House Bridal Suite and everything was coming into place....

It all sounds too good to be true and its almost as if I'm about to talk about a great wedding catastrophe but nope...the day was a perfect day...one we at Fernbank were very glad to be a part of.

Prudence & Jack Swing into Marriage

Date: 17th February 2018

A stunning (and very hot) sunny day greeted Jack and Prudence for their wedding at Fernbank Farm. Their two very dapper little boys led the procession in chino's & suspenders with Prue's bridesmaids in elegant black fish tale cocktail dresses.

There were garlands of greenery by the brides sister which looked amazing and a cute little idea by the bride for a menu display on one of our vintage mirrors.

The birds were out amoungst the cute vintage props placed around the property and it was just such a pretty day that went off without a hitch ;)

Sophie & Corey's Treat filled Wedding

Date: 21st January 2017

Over a year has passed since Sophie & Corey were married at Fernbank Farm and sometimes photos slip through the cracks only to appear in your inbox to the most amazing reception.

I spent most of this morning perusing through some of the most stunning photos of Sophie & Corey with almost a little tear of joy in the eye and just had to share!

This event had so many moving parts and wonderful elements firstly with the bride was picked up by our beautiful Landau carriage with her father in traditional kilt and escorted to The Fig Tree.

Elegant flowers hung from the branches by The Botanical Workshop and Bagpipes Matthew from All Seasons Bag Pipes welcomed the Bridal Party to the ceremony.

Sophie & Corey then broke from tradition to cut their cake prior to the reception serving a quaint high tea during the break between ceremony and reception which wasn’t the only treat for guests.

Six piece band Vibe Wedding Band filled the venue with classic songs which was only interrupted by speeches and the fun jingle of the ice cream van arriving to serve guests a cheeky ice cream for a second dessert.

You will agree that the photos are another visual treat by the very talented and sought after Lauren Campbell which are featured through this little blog.

Gemma & Marks "Tropical Paradise"

Date: 2nd December 2017

I want to talk about a "Wise Bride" - what I mean by this is a woman who understands there are just certain elements out of ones control and there is no point worrying about those elements. Gemma was exactly that, "wise", on what was one of our wettest weddings for 2017. 

With the forecast looming gloom and doom right before the ceremony we pushed through and crossed fingers, toes and anything that goes, in the hopes that the rain would hold off long enough for Gemma & Mark to have their ceremony in our Arbour. 

Guests arrived and grabbed a brolly, quickly took their seats to save their butts from getting sloshy (if it rained) and Mark and his groomsman awaited with sprinkles coming and going teasing us into a state of "should we stay or should we go"... "i dunno!"

The decision came down to the bride, as she glanced at the sky casually saying "yes, lets move everyone" and pops back inside with the girls to grab a glass of bubbles to calm the nerves and save the hair whilst we moved all the guests to a safe, dry ceremony space. 

Low and behold the music starts, the bridesmaids' travel down the stairs handing over their brollys at the start of the isle and the beautiful Bride enters The Pavillion just in time. THE HEAVENS OPEN and the rain commenced in a what could be described as a musical shower to open the first lines of the ceremony "WELCOME EVERYONE, to Gemma & Marks Wedding" ...pssshhh...sssss...splish...splash...THAT WAS LUCKY!

Fitting for a tropical wedding where the day is hot and the afternoon is wet and steamy the wedding was drenched in an array of beautiful tropical inspired flowers by Justine Rose. Orchids, Lily Leaves, Palms and a mix of white florals and greenery draped through the Marquee in the most divine fashion.

Tim took the bridal party into our shed for what could be described as a new age "Old Sydney Town" style shoot and wow what photos...too many great ones to share (but heres one below)...the champagne was poured under the pouring rain, lots of laughs and muddy shoes (and paws from the puppies) guests stomped their way through to canapé's in the dance marquee, the rain cleared and there we have it a stunning, rain glistening day and a happy couple celebrating their love :)

Congratulations Mark & Gemma, it was a pleasure to share in your tropical day and we wish you all the best with your marriage ;)

Kaysha & James - "A pop of colour"

Date: 18th November 2017

As a wedding stylist, brides come to me with so many ideas or sometimes none at all. It can be perplexing, daunting finding your wedding style and one can get lost in the "pinterest sea" for days without food or sleep only to be left feeling confused and a little off course...

That is where I (your personal stylist) come in...I can't help you with the "pinterest dilema" (its sometimes super fun to waste hours looking at beautiful wedding ideas) but what I can suggest (after years of styling weddings) is the same advice I gave to the lovely Kaysha when she was working out her look for her and James's wedding...

Add a "feature colour" or what I call a "pop". Its massively on trend to do all whites, neutrals and greenery but everything is already wonderful and green at Fernbank. Whilst our gardens feature certain flowers like Jacaranda's, Roses & Lily's they don't bloom throughout the entire year

so...

When I get photos sent to me from weddings the ones that seemingly make the most impact are the ones that have a little accent of colour. It helps draw the eye to focal areas and gives everything a little more contrast, it doesn't have to be a lot of colour, just a subtle glimpse to make things "pop".

I simply loved the highlights of colour in Kaysha's bouquet, on the tables and matching lippy, its pretty, warming and a nice little highlight to a wonderful day.

You can see more of this cute couples day in our Video's Gallery, including a very sweet speech by the groom :)

Sammy & Chris Marry at Fernbank Farm

Date: 28the October 2017

Sam & Chris can only be described as "the sweetest bottle of bubbles" - their kind, excitable and warm personalities were an absolute pleasure to meet and be a part of such a special memory.

The day starts off with the normal Hair & Make Up for the girls and the boys have been fishing for the last day in our lake catching Bass & Perch galore. Before the ceremony starts Sam is picked up by two gentle giants Leo and Lola in our Landau Carriage and escorted to The Fig Tree where Chris nervously (but excitedly) awaits. A little hicupp with a rude driver beeping his horn and speeding past the horses doesn't stop the special moment with Tina our driver shaking her head ( or possibly giving the bird)  and calmly collecting Sam's steads for the journey.

There are tears of joy & many sweet moments enjoyed under the grand canopy of the Morton Bay Fig Tree and hip hip hooray Sam & Chris are now man and wife.

The rest of the well weathered day was spent playing games by the lake and eating scrumptious food supplied by Eden Catering in the Majestic Marquee. The dance floor was awoken at around 8pm with a gorgeous couples dance choreographed by My First Dance Co and the night concluded under the twinkles of sparklers.

What a wonderful day and what a beautiful couple inside and out! Thank you to all the vendors and efforts of staff for making the event so enjoyable :)
