Garth and Natalie on their wedding day at Buckland Estate, Buckland

Buckland Estate
wedding photographer

Buckland Estate is a heritage property in the Avon Valley between Toodyay and Northam, about 100 km from the Perth CBD. The first part of the homestead went up in 1836, and today it is a BYO wedding venue with a barn, cottages, stables, a stone granary and a glamping village.

We have photographed weddings here in summer and in winter: Garth & Natalie in January and Lucy & Tim in June. It is the same property and two very different sets of pictures — red dirt and gold light in one, green grass and soft cloud in the other.

The homestead does a lot of the work. Stone walls, white verandah posts and wide steps make a ceremony backdrop on their own, and inside, rooms painted in deep colours and tall French doors give you beautiful window light for getting ready.

Then the land. White post-and-rail fences and a long tree-lined dirt drive run out from the buildings, and in the last hour of the day the paddocks behind them glow. Leave yourself twenty minutes out there at that point of the timeline.

It is a BYO venue, so you bring your own drinks and caterers, and the venue offers a choice of ceremony spots and indoor and outdoor reception spaces. Both of the receptions we photographed were in the wedding barn. All of its packages include accommodation for 20 people, with another 40 beds in the glamping village and BYO camping on top, so it is an easy place to turn into a whole weekend.

A real wedding here

Garth & Natalie

A kiss on the temple with the sun going down behind the paddock
Together on the long tree-lined drive in the last light
A kiss at the paddock fence in the golden light
The bride by the white fence, smiling into the evening
At the stone doorway of the homestead, bouquet in hand
The bride on the white sofa with her bouquet
Earrings on at the tall French doors
The long table set in the barn under iron chandeliers

And another one here

Lucy & Tim

A kiss by the white fence, her train spread across the grass
Foreheads together in the soft winter light
Smiling at each other, the homestead behind them
A kiss at the tall French doors, her train across the parquet
By the window in the dark red room
The kiss between the columns of white flowers
Laughing at the window, the room dark behind her
Her hand on his lapel, the ring catching the light
