WEDDINGS - YOUR SPECIAL DAY
Affordable Midweek Weddings · Hunter Farm · Pokolbin
A beautiful Hunter Valley wedding. More affordable than you might imagine.
Your wedding day should be one of the most memorable days of your life. But creating those memories doesn't have to mean spending more than you need to.
At Hunter Farm, choosing to celebrate your wedding midweek can make a significant difference to the overall cost, without compromising on the vineyard setting, wonderful food and warm hospitality that make a Hunter Valley wedding so special.
Perhaps you're saving for your first home, planning your future together, celebrating a new chapter in life, or simply prefer a more relaxed occasion surrounded by the people who matter most. Whatever your circumstances, you may be surprised at what's possible.

Your Wedding · Your Priorities
More of what matters. Less of what doesn't.
A wonderful wedding isn't measured by how much you spend. It's about the people you bring together, the promises you make and the memories you take home.

Your wedding, your way.
Not everyone dreams of a formal, elaborate reception. Some couples want a relaxed celebration with close friends and family. Others want a larger gathering, but with a more considered approach to the cost.
At Hunter Farm, we can explore flexible dining options, including a shared celebration around good food and wine, and reception arrangements suited to your guest numbers.
Our existing dining layout may provide an affordable starting point, with other arrangements available to discuss. Katie can explain what works best for the occasion you have in mind.

A Little Easier for Your Guests
Come for the wedding. Stay for the memories.
For guests travelling from Sydney, Newcastle, the Central Coast or further afield, a midweek wedding can be an opportunity to enjoy a short Hunter Valley getaway.
Many guests may only need one night's accommodation rather than a full weekend away. Our onsite accommodation offers the convenience of staying close to the celebration, with midweek rates that can be considerably more affordable than weekend stays.
And for local friends and family, there's no need to book accommodation at all.
Accommodation rates and availability depend on your chosen dates. Katie can discuss suitable options for your guests.

Frequently Asked Questions
A few things you might be wondering.
Are midweek weddings more affordable in the Hunter Valley?
They certainly can be. Choosing a Monday to Thursday date may make a significant difference to your overall wedding costs. The actual saving depends on your date, guest numbers, menu and arrangements. Katie can explain the possibilities for your celebration.
Will a midweek wedding feel different from a weekend wedding?
You'll still have the beautiful Hunter Farm setting, warm hospitality and the chance to celebrate with your favourite people. The arrangements can be tailored to the style of wedding you want, with Katie explaining the options for your preferred date.
Can we have a small or intimate wedding?
Yes, we're happy to discuss smaller celebrations as well as larger gatherings. Tell Katie roughly how many guests you're considering and she can suggest suitable options.
Will our guests need to stay for several nights?
Not necessarily. Many travelling guests may choose to stay for just one night, and local guests may not need accommodation at all. Staying longer is entirely up to them.
Can we choose our own style of food and reception?
We offer flexibility in how your celebration is arranged. Katie can discuss dining styles, menus, seating arrangements and any additional costs associated with particular choices.
What if we're planning a second wedding or a more relaxed celebration?
You're very welcome. Whether it's a new chapter, a smaller family gathering or a relaxed celebration without all the formalities, we'd love to hear what you have in mind.
Do we need to know our exact budget before contacting Katie?
No. An approximate guest number, a preferred day or month and a sense of what matters most to you are enough to begin the conversation.
Let's Talk About Your Wedding
You might be surprised at what's possible.
Every couple is different, and so is every wedding. That's why we prefer to start with a conversation rather than ask you to fit into a fixed package.
Tell Katie a little about your plans, your preferred dates and approximately how many people you'd like to invite. She can help you explore what an affordable midweek wedding at Hunter Farm could look like for you.
No need to have every detail worked out. Just start with a conversation.
