Why Bunnyconnellen: A Tucked-Away Treasure for Unforgettable ‘I Do’s’

There’s something magical about a place that feels both miles away from reality and yet somehow, just down the road. That’s the charm of Bunnyconnellen—a tucked-away treasure nestled in rolling hills, where olive groves sway in the breeze and time slows to a gentle, love-soaked rhythm.

For couples craving more than cookie-cutter weddings and Pinterest déjà vu, Bunnyconnellen offers an experience that’s intimate, whimsical, and wildly memorable. It’s the kind of venue where barefoot flower girls chase butterflies, candlelit toasts echo through old farm buildings, and your “just married” kiss feels like it’s happening at the edge of the world.

But don’t be fooled by its rural calm—this isn’t your typical barn bash. Bunnyconnellen is a countryside venue with layers. Classy, rustic, and beautifully curated by a young couple who live and breathe hospitality, the space blends heritage charm with thoughtful design. The cellar door, once a humble structure, now hosts fine-dining receptions under vintage beams and fairy lights. The homestead whispers old-world romance. And every corner—from the weathered truck and bicycle for two to the rowboat resting quietly on the dam—offers a photo opportunity that feels plucked from a storybook.

It’s these little touches that elevate Bunnyconnellen from “nice venue” to “oh, this place is perfect.” You’re not just booking a space—you’re stepping into a narrative, one where your love story takes centre stage in the most cinematic of settings.

And while it may feel like a secret garden lost to the world, it’s surprisingly accessible—just close enough to town to be easy, yet far enough off the beaten track that your guests will feel like they’ve travelled somewhere special. No traffic noise, no city skyline—just beautiful trees, a vineyard, paddocks, and the peaceful echo of your vows drifting into the sunset.

Whether you’re a little bit boho with a side of glam, or classic lovers with a taste for the rustic luxe life, Bunnyconnellen holds space for your vision. It’s versatile, soulful, and run with the kind of care that makes wedding planning feel a little less like chaos and a lot more like magic.

So if you’re searching for a place that feels different, personal, and deeply romantic, Bunnyconnellen is ready to open its gates and invite you in.

Because unforgettable ‘I do’s’ deserve more than just a venue. They deserve a moment, a memory, and a tucked-away treasure that feels like it was made just for you.

Excitingly, this space is currently undergoing some changes and will soon be available as a second indoor ceremony area and function space for up to 160 guests - we can’t wait to share the changes with you!

Imagine this is your backdrop as you enter for you Imagine this is your backdrop as you enter for your wedding reception dinner…as the setting sun kisses the hilltops behind you, you dine by candlelight under the open sky at a table adorned with ruffles, bows, rich florals and linens surrounded by your favourite people after saying “yes” to spending the rest of your life with that special person seated next to you. Your evening is full of laughter, raised glasses, heartfelt speeches and cherished moments, followed by a night of dancing under the stars.

Ready to make this dream your reality? We’re here for it.
