For life's sweetest moments
Whether you're planning a proposal, an elopement, an intimate wedding or a quiet anniversary, Back Paddock Botanical offers a unique backdrop to celebrate the moment.
Our west-facing lavender fields glow at sunset. Our timber pergola, draped with fairy lights, makes a beautiful backdrop for vows or a champagne clink.
It's a choose-your-own-adventure kind of venue: we simply provide the place, and you create the moment.

Full Wedding Hire
$2500 venue hire.
Host a celebration with up to 120 people, entirely your way.
- Private hire of the venue, for the wedding of your dreams.

- Additional guests can be approved, however the hire charge will change.
You’ll need to organise:
- Catering.
- Marquee hire.
- Tables, chairs, decor.

- Power is available around the outside of the shed. If you'd prefer vendors set-up elsewhere, they will need to be self-powered.
