Dalmore Farm

If you’ve always envisioned a breathtaking country wedding for yourself, complete with rolling hills, rocky vistas, old oak trees, and burbling creeks, then Dalmore Farm will be a dream come true. This historic, farm wedding venue is set on more than 250 acres of diverse land, offering complete tranquillity on your wedding day. More than that, it allows for some incredibly beautiful sights - both natural and man-made. 

While the velvety Blackwood River Valley hills are certainly stars of the show, the newly-restored old buildings and historical sites are positively stunning, too. In particular, the Shearing Shed is divine, with owners Danny and Emilie completely making over this space for their own wedding. 

The beautifully renovated Shearing Shed provides “modern convenience without losing antiquated charm”. Complete with hardwood floors, festoon lighting, cream-white walls with wooden features, and a series of bespoke ceiling fans - it’s a great fit for rustic weddings, country themes, and elegant occasions alike. Ceremonies, on the other hand, are either held in the flowery canopy of the pear orchard or in the back paddock - below majestic gum trees and surrounded by granite boulders. 

Situated just 15 minutes from Bridgetown, WA, this BYO wedding venue is the perfect place to say ‘I do’ and take in a beautiful Australian landscape.

What you’ll love about working with Dalmore Farm for your South West WA wedding:

• Flexible, BYO wedding venue. Dalmore Farm allows couples to bring in their own choice of caterers and drinks. However, they’re also more than happy to point you in the direction of their preferred caterers if you need some ideas.
• Quiet country setting. This historic property is absolutely breathtaking, and boasts rolling hills as far as the eye can see, majestic oak trees, babbling creeks, and rocky vistas.
• Beautiful on-site accommodation. Couples can indulge in plush, on-site accommodation at Dalmore Farm, with the lovely farm estate and historic, renovated Workman’s Cottage available for guests. Glamping packages are also available for up to 40 additional guests.

About

Hi! We are Danny and Emilie Abbiss. Dalmore has been our home for over twenty years and it has been an honour to care for this very special place. We live here on the farm with our 3 boys, 2 dogs, 2 cats, 9 horses, 2 goats, 2 pigs... It's a long list! As we have built our family, with all of its two and four-legged members, over the years, we have felt a strong pull to share Dalmore with others. We would absolutely love to show you around and we invite you to create your own Dalmore dreams.

Emilie and Danny Abbiss
