Kind Words from Our Couples
Unforgettable Experience
For us, it's about so much more than hosting a wedding. Clifton Woolshed is family-run, and Bron and Jamie live just across the road, so from your first tour to your last dance you're looked after by the people who care most about this place.
Every wedding includes Clifton Wedding Coordination, valued at $2,200. We'll help you plan, point you to trusted local suppliers and run the day so you can simply enjoy it. If you'd like even more help, our Planning Plus and Wedding Concierge options take care of the finer details too.
Seeing the smiles, the laughter and the happy tears on your wedding day is why we love what we do. We can't wait to welcome you to Clifton Woolshed.
