We loved our wedding day at Tuggeranong Homestead, it was the perfect location and had everything we wanted. The staff were very lovely and the food was great (even accommodating for some extensive allergies amongst our guests). Loved that we had access to the venue all day, made getting ready very easy and stress free! Would highly recommend.

Tuggeranong Homestead is everything we dreamed of and more. It was the perfect location for our wedding. From our first visit, we knew that is where we going to get married. Gerry and Ann, were beautiful to work with and so accomodating. I would not change a thing, not even three years later. Tuggeranong Homestead will always hold a special place in our hearts.
Angelina G.
From the moment we met Gerry and Anne, we felt welcome and confident in the venue that we had chosen for our special day. Their explanation of the property, catering and event options was fantastic. As the day approached, the on going communication from Anne was fantastic, specifically given the Covid situation. The flexibility they showed to be able to confirm final numbers as close as possible to the day was very reassuring and put our minds at ease. On the day, Anne managed everything which helped the day run smoothly. The way that they accommodated our guests dietary requirements was first class, which meant we didn't need to stress over the catering details. All of our guests that attended spoke highly about how beautiful the property was, the ceremony reception and the quality of the catering. Could not have chosen a better venue to celebrate our special day.
Andrew T.
Wonderful experience. Owners Gerry and Ann were extremely helpful prior, during and after our wedding. The service was brilliant, food was delicious and everyone enjoyed the day/night relaxing. This venue would be great even to eat/drink on a Sunday afternoon.
