About

Overview & Vibe

A working farm from 1905 turned into two adjoining wedding properties, thirty minutes from the Perth CBD. The family bought Chapel Farm in 2000 and the neighbouring estate — formerly Jane Brook Estate, and before that Vignacourt Wine Cellars — in 2021, so a couple is choosing between two quite different venues under one name.

Setting & Style

Rustic and deliberately so: “A rustic barnyard constructed from 100 year old timbers, railway sleepers, hand crafted wrought iron, and old Swan Valley Rocks. Enchanted Gardens and hidden creeks. A century old Sugar Gum Tree, and stained glass windows from the 1800’s.” There is a natural lake, a waterfall, chapel ruins, flame trees, Japanese elms and farm animals, with the Perth Hills behind.

Ideal For

Couples wanting a farm wedding with everything on site — two reception options at very different scales, and a spread of on-site accommodation from themed boutique rooms to a three-bedroom shack.

The Need-to-Knows

Two reception spaces, two scales. The Courtyard at Chapel Farm seats 150; the Church Barn at the Estate seats 250.
The Courtyard is semi-outdoor by design — “protected from the elements while still being outside” — with a built-in Jarrah dance floor and complimentary fairy and festoon lighting.
The Church Barn offers fully and semi-enclosed options with air-conditioning, which matters in a Swan Valley summer.
Pricing is quoted on enquiry. The wedding guide and function pack are both released on request.
Accommodation cannot be inspected before booking, and the venue says so plainly — rooms are sold to the public as well as to wedding guests, and bookings are by email only.

Standout Feature

A 250-seat barn built from salvaged timbers and 1800s stained glass, on a farm with its own lake and waterfall.

Price Notes

Pricing is provided on enquiry. Both the wedding guide and the function pack are sent to you after you ask for them rather than published openly, so every figure has to be requested.
Enquiries are by email only. Weddings go to weddings@chapelfarm.com.au and accommodation to stay@chapelfarm.com.au, and the venue notes it does not take phone bookings.
Two properties trade under the one name, so check which one your quote covers. Chapel Farm dates from 1905 and was bought by the Walker family in 2000; the Estate next door — formerly Jane Brook Estate — was added in 2021. The Courtyard (150 guests) and the Church Barn (250) are on different properties.
Accommodation rooms cannot be viewed before booking. They are let to the public as well as to wedding guests, so the venue asks you to go by the photographs and descriptions — which also means your guests share the property with other visitors.
The seasonal menu is available to groups of 20 or more. No dishes, prices or dietary notes are published.
Thirty minutes from the Perth CBD by the venue's own reckoning — a rustic farm setting without a long drive for your guests.
Farm animals are part of the setting rather than incidental: the courtyard, lake, waterfall and cellar seating all look onto the animals, pastures and the Perth Hills. The venue's own wedding photographs include a couple posing with a goat.
