A family-run 100-acre vineyard estate at Bawley Point on the NSW South Coast, with a modern-industrial reception venue, bush and lake ceremony sites and two nights on site for every wedding.
Bawley Vale Estate is a family-run, 100-acre vineyard and wedding venue at Bawley Point on the NSW South Coast, between Ulladulla and Batemans Bay and about three hours south of Sydney. Owners Chris and Marg Watt have looked after the estate since 2015, working with coordinator Jackie. The property takes in vineyards, fruit orchards and tranquil lakes wrapped in bush, with goats, alpacas and a resident goose and duck, and the ocean a few minutes down the road.
Weddings have the whole estate exclusively. Ceremonies take place against a bush or lake backdrop, canapes and drinks follow on The Lawns, and the reception moves into a modern-industrial venue with sky-high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass, huge barn doors, exposed beams, blackbutt timber and brick. Every outdoor ceremony has a wet-weather alternative inside, and the reception space, cellar room and main ceremony lawn are all step-free.
Every wedding includes two nights on site in a self-contained two-bedroom studio, so the morning after is as unhurried as the day itself. Venue hire covers estate furniture and decor and guest parking, while drinks packages and catering are quoted separately, with a panel of preferred caterers to recommend from. Couples can bring their own band or DJ, and well-behaved dogs are welcome at outdoor ceremonies. Compare it with the other NSW wedding venues.
Specific inclusions and pricing depend on the season, day and package. Send an enquiry below for an indicative quote.

We're still finalising our partnership with Bawley Vale Estate, so we can't forward leads to them just yet. Sending now would mean your enquiry doesn't actually reach the venue.
