A tour through our stunning ‘Conservatory’

At Gabbinbar Homestead we have an array of different ceremony and reception locations to choose from across the estate. Step inside our historic homestead and you will find our most popular indoor reception venue, the ‘Conservatory’. The ‘Conservatory’ is our largest indoor event space and is commonly used for wedding receptions however, today we are seeing more and more Gabbinbar Homestead couples host their ceremony is this classic space as well.

As soon as you walk into the ‘Conservatory’ you will notice the abundance of natural light flowing through the glass ceiling which honestly is a photographer’s dream. Gabbinbar Homestead is renowned for being beautiful by day and spectacular by night. The ‘Conservatory’ is no exception – imagine fireworks erupting over the glass ceiling as you cut your wedding cake in front of your beloved guests…simply breathtaking. The glass ceiling combined with the soft honey coloured floorboards creates a simple backdrop so that you can style the room to your desire and create your own unique wedding. Suspend floral arrangements from the ceiling and leave your guests speechless as they walk into your reception. As you move towards the back of the room, the rich green tones of the garden surrounding the ‘Conservatory’ is showcased beautifully through the original floor-to-ceiling white French doors.

The ‘Conservatory’ is a flexible space which can accommodate banquet style seating as well as traditional round tables. We’ve even hosted a number of cocktail style wedding’s in our ‘Conservatory’ as well. Our team of talented Wedding Planners can help you create a seating plan which will comfortably accommodate your guests and they will be on-hand the morning of your wedding to set up the room accordingly.

Finally, if you’ve chosen to get ready in our ‘Brides Retreat’ we would recommend taking the short walk through the Gabbinbar Homestead to use the ‘Conservatory’ for your pre-ceremony photographs with your bridesmaids. This elegant room is the perfect location to capture special moments with your bridesmaids and the natural light will highlight the intricate details of your wedding dress beautifully.

The ‘Conservatory’ is just one of our beautiful reception venues here at Gabbinbar Homestead.

Or if you have a large guest list a clear-roofed marquee is also an option, the choice is yours.
