Weddings at the Merchant Shearing shed.

The Merchant Shearing shed provides a beautiful rustic setting for your wedding while the couple will also be benefited from lots of options and inclusions. You could either say ‘I do’ under the lush garden or in our decorated receptions. With its natural beauty, the barn remains as one of the most sought-after options for wedding ceremony, especially during summer as the big tree offers shade for the guests to sit under. After the wedding ceremony, the bar station on the side will also offer refreshment to the wedding party and guests. Depending on your wedding size, your wedding reception can be held inside the garden café, the Barn.

The Merchant Shearing Shed Reviews: (4.3)

Julia: During the planning phase, we appreciated being able to visit Shearing Shed and were always greeted by the personnel with a grin. On the day, the entire team did a wonderful job of keeping things organized, making sure everyone had enough food and drink, and keeping an eye on us. We are very grateful to you and the team for making our day amazing! Since Merchant Shearing Shed will always hold a particular place in our hearts, we can’t wait to keep going there. Additionally, the location offered the ideal photographic backdrop from every perspective!

Alexandria: This was a beautiful location for our wedding that met all of our criteria: close proximity to Melbourne, a laid-back, calm country ambiance, an outdoor ceremony and reception (with practical indoor backup plans in case of rain), affordability, and ease of planning. You really have a lot of options in constructing your perfect day, which is why we chose the tree-lined driveway for the ceremony and long table dining in the orchard for the reception. There is also a large shed, a smaller interior room, and other venues available. The entire planning process was made very simple by Anna, who guided us through the event, took care of the style, and provided us with a huge selection of props and decorations. Having arranged for all of these aspects was fantastic. Highly recommended venue.

Ellen: The entire Merchant Shearing shed team is to thank for the most amazing day of our lives. Jane and Lukas gave us a list of suggested vendors, which we used to plan and organize our wonderful day. Jane responded to all of our emails so quickly and patiently addressed all of our stupid inquiries. Everything we wanted to have happen on our wedding day was there for us to choose, and it all turned out so beautifully. All night long, Jane and Lukas were there to make sure everything went according to plan.

Wedding Photography at The Merchant Shearing Shed.

As a Melbourne city wedding photographer, I love capturing natural and candid wedding photography at the Merchant Shearing shed. The wild life animals, the grassland, the wooden gate as well as old barn houses provided a rustic yet romantic backdrop for wedding couples, especially during the golden hours we can capture some most stunning sunset wedding photography.
