Wow wow wow! We had our wedding at Darlington Estate at the end of August, and the entire experience leading up to, and on the day, was amazing. Meg (wedding coordinator) from our first meeting was exceptionally well organised, explained everything to us in detail, and gave suggestions to make…

Darlington Estate
A rustic Perth Hills winery venue in the bushland at Darlington, hosting one exclusive-use wedding a day for up to 120 seated or 150 cocktail guests.
About Darlington Estate
Darlington Estate sits in the heart of the Perth Hills, surrounded by bushland and valley views, and has hosted weddings for over 30 years. It specialises in cosy, intimate weddings and hosts only one wedding a day, so couples have exclusive use of the estate for eight hours. Ceremony, pre-dinner drinks, reception and accommodation are all in one place, with wet weather ceremony areas for rainy days.
Ceremonies take place on the Side Terrace, with tiered levels and a panoramic bushland backdrop, or in the Gazebo wrapped in evergreen climbing ivy, which also suits pre-dinner drinks. The Conservatory holds small winter ceremonies of up to 30 seated. Receptions are held in a fully enclosed room of recycled jarrah beams, recycled brick floors and floor-to-ceiling windows, with fairy lights inside and over an outdoor courtyard dance floor.
Receptions seat up to 120 guests, or 150 for a cocktail reception, and the wedding menu is the same as the estate's award-winning a la carte menu. A fully licensed bar, chefs and wait staff run the night, and a dedicated wedding planner is assigned in the lead-up as a complimentary service. Darlington House, a four-bedroom house sleeping eight, is reserved for wedding couples and their bridal party. Compare it with the other Western Australian wedding venues.

Absolutely heaven Wedding Venue!! Ceremony & Reception on 08.11.24, the scenery, food, reception area are all phenomenal, the venue is so beautiful we didn’t even need to add decorations. We had 40 people for an intimate wedding and wouldn’t change anything. Thank you

My husband and I found Darlington after touring another venue that had left us feeling deflated - my husband enquired with Darlington so that we could save the day. From the moment we arrived we were…
