There’s something undeniably special about a rustic wedding. Think rolling hills, historic buildings, open fields, weathered timber, native greenery and golden-hour sunsets. For couples looking to escape the traditional ballroom wedding and create something relaxed, romantic and completely their own, Western Australia is home to some incredible rustic wedding venues.
At Confetti + Co Events, we love venues that provide a beautiful backdrop while still giving couples the freedom to bring their own personality and styling vision to life. From historic estates to working farms and heritage properties, these are some of our favourite rustic wedding venues in WA.
Brookleigh Estate
Located in the Swan Valley, Brookleigh Estate is a beautiful option for couples who love the romance of an estate wedding but still want plenty of natural surroundings.
With French-inspired architecture, established gardens, open lawns and picturesque photography locations throughout the property, Brookleigh offers a unique combination of elegance and countryside charm.
The estate has several wedding spaces, including The Lake House, The Chateau, the Lakeside Gazebo, Jacaranda Garden, The Stables and the Equestrian Lawn. This variety makes it possible to create a wedding that feels completely personal to you.
For couples wanting a rustic-inspired celebration, we love the idea of embracing the estate’s natural surroundings with soft, organic florals, timber details, candlelight and plenty of greenery. You could take the styling in a romantic garden direction or lean further into a relaxed country aesthetic.
Brookleigh also hosts just one wedding per day, giving couples exclusive use of the designated wedding spaces for their celebration.

Buckland Estate
If you’re dreaming of a true country wedding, Buckland Estate is one of the WA venues that immediately comes to mind.
Located between Toodyay and Northam in the Avon Valley, Buckland Estate is a heritage property dating back to 1836. Surrounded by rolling hills, farmland, mature trees and historic buildings, it offers an incredible setting for a relaxed country celebration.
One of the things we love most about Buckland is its versatility. The property can be styled in so many different ways, from rustic and relaxed through to elegant, boho, vintage or glamorous.
The estate features a historic homestead, cottages, a wedding barn, stables and other heritage buildings, while the surrounding farmland provides plenty of opportunities for beautiful wedding photographs.
Buckland also offers accommodation onsite, including the homestead, cottages and glamping options, making it particularly appealing for couples who want to turn their wedding into a full weekend experience with family and friends.
Katrine Steading
For couples who love history, character and a little bit of countryside romance, Katrine Steading is a beautiful choice.
Set across 25 acres alongside the Avon River, Katrine Steading combines heritage charm with a naturally beautiful setting. The property dates back to the 1830s and was once a thriving rural community, complete with an inn, post office and shops.
Today, the restored property provides a distinctive backdrop for weddings and events, surrounded by lush landscapes and historic buildings.
We love Katrine for couples who want their wedding to feel intimate, relaxed and connected to its surroundings. Rather than relying on an overly decorated venue, the existing character of the property can become part of the overall styling.
Barton Park Events
For a rustic wedding with a genuine farm feel, Barton Park Events is another WA venue worth having on your list.
Located near York in the Avon Valley, Barton Park is a family-owned crop and livestock farm surrounded by rolling hills and native flora. It’s approximately a 90-minute drive from Perth, making it an appealing option for couples who want a destination-style country wedding without travelling too far from the city.
One of our favourite things about Barton Park is its flexibility. The property offers natural and landscaped spaces that can be transformed to suit different wedding styles, from relaxed outdoor celebrations to marquee weddings and rustic gatherings.
The venue’s bushland ceremony area, surrounded by towering salmon gums, provides a naturally beautiful ceremony backdrop. There is also the historic Old School House, Quellington Hall and the rustic Wed Shed, giving couples plenty of options when planning their day.
Bringing Your Rustic Wedding Vision to Life
The beauty of a rustic wedding is that it doesn’t have to look one particular way. Rustic can be romantic, modern, elegant, boho, minimal or completely relaxed.
At Confetti + Co Events, we love taking the natural character of a venue and building a wedding design around it. From the ceremony styling and florals to tablescapes, signage, lighting and the little details your guests remember, our goal is to create a celebration that feels cohesive and personal.
