Every Mt Duneed Estate wedding is uniquely tailored to meet your needs. We love working with our couples to create winery weddings with a difference. Choose to keep it simple or style any of our spaces to the extreme – we love it all!  We have a great list of preferred suppliers who know our venue well and are exceptional at what they do. 

Transparent Pricing

At Mt Duneed Estate we do not charge venue hire or have any hidden costs.  We try to make your wedding day as stress free and enjoyable for you as possible.  Our tailored wedding packages are simply one price per guest. This includes your style of menu (cocktail, sit down dinner, shared dinner or any other customised option you desire), five-hour beverage package, the exclusive use of our entire venue, napery, crockery, cutlery, glassware and security.  We do not charge to cut your wedding cake or to provide a knife for you to cut your cake.  When we say all inclusive, we mean it.

We welcome you to look through our venue where we can show you all of the amazing possibilities to create your dream wedding.  We like to take the time to step through absolutely everything so you are comfortable and informed of all the details.
