From the “I do” to that just-married walk back down the aisle, this is exactly the kind of joy we love seeing at the Homestead.
Congratulations, Payton + Alistair. 💍

That walk down the aisle feeling. 🤍
The front of Tuggeranong Homestead makes for a pretty special entrance, with the heritage Homestead, gardens and fountain framing the moment perfectly.
One of our favourite places to say “here comes the bride.” 🌿💍

✨ A night worth looking back on.
From the stirring sound of the bagpipes to the incredible food preparation behind the scenes, carefully paired wines and guests coming together, the inaugural Australian Deer Association ACT & Snowy Mountains Branch Black Tie Dinner was something truly special.
A huge thank you to Chef Chester Mok, Kosciuszko Wild Venison, Adam Digby, Dan and Robbyn from Australian Wine Archives, the Australian Deer Association ACT & Snowy Mountains Branch, and everyone behind the scenes who helped bring “Venison: Chapter by Chapter” to life at Tuggeranong Homestead.
Here’s a little look back at an unforgettable night. 🥂✨
Until the next chapter.
When the backdrop has this much character, you have to make the most of it.
One of our favourite things about weddings at Tuggeranong Homestead is the variety of backdrops right here on the property. From heritage buildings and rustic textures to open country views, there’s no shortage of beautiful spots to sneak away for your wedding portraits.
And Christine and Sal’s classic Rolls-Royce? The perfect finishing touch. 🤍
