September 2022

From the start of our wedding planning we looked at lots of different venues (online) and what the offered, but nothing stood out to us like Bridgewater did. We were already in love with the place, with all the pictures on your website and social media, however when we came for a viewing we both fell deeper in love with the place and just knew that it was the right place for us to have our wedding. 

I know I have sent you hundreds of emails each with lots of questions and you have never failed to answer each and every question, I really appreciate that. Tracey you made wedding planning so much easier and slightly less stressful. I am so glad you guys offer the decorations package as part of the package because that just makes it so much easier and you guys definitely know what you're doing. 

Thank you for catering to all our needs and wants, the day went off perfectly without any issues. Thank you for also keeping the umbrellas out and ready for guests to use as this was handy when the weather changed.

Since I couldn't have all my family at the wedding we live streamed the ceremony and everyone said the venue was absolutely stunning, they even enjoyed listening to the birds chirping in the background during the ceremony. 

Thank you very much Justin, Tracey and the team at Bridgewater for making our day perfect. We have no regrets and it was all thanks to you!

September 2022

We really wanted to thank you, Justin and the team at Bridgewater for the amazing service and day at Bridgewater Estate for our special day.

We wrote our review on Google but seriously we could have gone on and on with our thank yous and how amazing everything was. All of our guests were raving about what an amazing place the venue was and everyone loved the food. Also thank you so much for the amazing venue decorations - you really helped ease the stress of the wedding and the end result was everything we hoped it would be (and more!!).

Our wedding couldn't have been better. The most wonderful venue and supportive staff. Zero regrets. Bridgewater was totally perfect.

February 2022

Just wanted to thank Justin & Tracey and the team at Bridgewater Country Estate for creating the most beautiful wedding day for us! Everything was perfect and they were so amazing to deal with, it’s the little things that matter and they do this so well. An highly recommended as a brilliant and beautiful wedding venue.

January 2022

Justin and Tracey were awesome to deal with, they were reply so speedily in the lead up to the big day. On the day they went above and beyond for us! The venue staff were amazing and attentive. The venue has a natural amphitheatre which draws your attention to the beautifully maintained gardens and arch-ways. The whole experience was knitted together by their incredible food! It is a day I will happily relive in my memories for the rest of my life. Cannot recommend it enough to people looking for a venue.

P.S the fact that you can pay for them to deal with ALL the decorations. And that they clean it all up for you at the end; is worth its weight in gold! It really takes the stress off the big day.

January 2022

From the first viewing we had at Bridgewater, we knew that it was the perfect venue for our big day.

All communication we had with Tracey was prompt, clear, and - most importantly for us due to having to postpone twice - genuine and empathetic. Nothing was too much of a hassle for them, and not having to worry about looking after any of the admin on the day (setting up tables, ordering napkins, creating centrepieces) was a win for us.

We had so many comments from guests who were blown away by how beautiful the venue is and how great the food was. I just wish I hadn't been such a ball of emotion that I could have eaten more of the amazing ham!
Tracey & Justin did a stellar job of running the day - including dealing with last minute transport issues on my behalf to keep me calm. Everything ran like clockwork, and the team that they had on did an outstanding job.

If you're considering Bridgewater as your wedding venue, all we can say is DO IT. You won't regret it.

January 2022

Highly recommend Bridgewater Estate for your wedding. Everything you need in 1 venue. 4 options for your ceremony location, wet weather option, reception on site. Unlimited photo opportunities also with the pond & jetty, bush & garden settings.

May 2021

We spent a few weeks scouting locations for our wedding and though there were some nice places, once we came across Bridgewater, met with Justin and walked around the grounds we knew without a shadow of a doubt that it not only ticked all the boxes, but it really re-energized us and gave us some palpable excited momentum moving forwards, and we were instantly really excited to share this beautiful location with our friends and family on our special day.

Justin was so flexible and accommodating with our ideas and plans that nothing seemed hard or like anything was going to be in anyway a challenge or difficult, and this included working on the menu with us to cater for people with all sorts of dietary needs. The food was amazing and a real highlight of the reception for us and our guests.

In the planning of the day Justin listened to us and offered advice and suggestions as per his expertise, but really let us run with the ball and we ended up with exactly the wedding WE wanted and the day just went over so well that if it went any easier we might have fallen asleep!

Aside from being blessed by having such a beautiful location surrounding us on the day itself, our photos look stunning; we scrubbed up ok, but Bridgewater made us look really gooood - it was easy to soar like Eagles when surrounded by such a majestic landscape!

All our guests were stunned by the location and now several weeks later we are still getting feedback from them gushing about how beautiful the place is.

Bridgewater is truly a magical place to get married and we have no doubt Justin and his crew will meet and exceed your expectations for your special day.

We felt that Justin was passionate truly cared about our wedding and wanted to make sure it was the perfect day for us.  We chose the buffet and the food was amazing! and all the staff were friendly.

It was a history-making day for ACCCA and for the Bridgewater Country Estate as they had never hosted a Car Club of any sort prior to us on Sunday.  How cool is that!

And a HUGE thanks to Justin Button and his staff at the Bridgewater Country Estate for accommodating our every whim without hesitation.  A more approachable host/proprietor of any such facility you would be hard pressed to find.

30th January 2020

First of all, Craig and myself would like to thank you so very much for making our day such a success. I know a lot of people adored the venue, it was absolutely beautiful.The day ran smoothly and according to plan.  We had a lot of compliments on the food, so I know that everything was very popular, and you were right about the curry.

Also big thanks to the chef in regards to the cheese stack, that was really well received and people raved about the blue cheese. I'm super pleased we chose it, and you executed our vision perfectly.

I'm so glad we chose Bridgewater as our venue, everything was done well, with elegance, was easy, and I think the venue offers a point of difference rather than the standard vineyard wedding. The shaded bar area was also hugely beneficial due to the heat.  
You have been brilliant to work with during the planning process and I'm extremely grateful for everything.

WEDDING VIDEOGRPHER FEEDBACK

As a wedding videographer and having worked at many venues over a number of years, Bridgewater is still one of my favourites. I had the pleasure of working there again recently. The service is impeccable and food is delicious. Staff are friendly and very helpful. The grounds and gardens are perfectly kept and there are so many great spots for photography. I would highly recommend this venue!

CORPORATE FUNCTION

Bridgewater is a beautiful venue and it works really well for corporate planning days! I am a professional facilitator and coach, I worked with a Senior Leadership team of a Technology Business at Bridgewater for a day of business strategy and planning.  The quiet surrounds, being outside, and tasty catering meant that we were able to achieve all our objectives and more.  I was really impressed with the organisation and attention to detail of the venue organisers.  I would recommend Bridgewater to those wanting to have a successful external event!

90TH BIRTHDAY PARTY
