From intimate ceremonies to milestone celebrations - Ardbrae is the private estate made for marking the moments that matter most.
Ceremonies at Ardbrae
Your Day, Your Way
Ardbrae is a truly blank-canvas private estate. Nestled among the rolling hills of Red Hill on the Mornington Peninsula, this elegant property is yours to shape entirely - from the ceremony space to the reception setup, the food to the entertainment.
We work with your chosen suppliers - whether that's a favourite food truck, a marquee company, a private caterer, a florist, or a musician - to bring your exact vision to life. There are no imposed packages, no house caterers, and no compromises. Just your day, exactly as you imagined it.
And because the whole property is exclusively yours, the celebration doesn't have to start, or end, on the day itself.
Bring Your Own Suppliers
Build Your Dream Day
Ardbrae welcomes all your preferred suppliers. Whether you have a food truck in mind, a marquee company you love, or a caterer who knows your taste, bring them all. The property is set up to accommodate your full vision.

Extend the Celebration
The Night Before & The Morning After
Some of the most treasured memories happen before the big day even begins. Ardbrae is the perfect setting for a relaxed night-before gathering, a rehearsal dinner on the deck, welcome drinks in the garden, or simply an evening with your closest people as the anticipation builds.
And why rush away? Stay on after the ceremony and let the Peninsula work its magic. Slow mornings, countryside walks, a visit to Avani Wines directly across the road - the celebration continues for as long as you wish.
Full weekend bookings are available, giving you and your guests the run of the property from Friday through to Sunday.

Celebrations & Events
Every Occasion
What Will You Celebrate?
Milestone Birthdays
Mark the big ones in a setting worthy of the occasion. Ardbrae's lawns and gardens are made for long tables, fairy lights, and toasts that go late into the evening. Whether it's a 40th, 50th, or 70th, this is a place to celebrate in style.
Anniversaries
Reconnect and celebrate your story surrounded by the beauty of Red Hill. An intimate weekend at Ardbrae - just the two of you, or with the people who've shared your journey - makes for a deeply personal anniversary experience.
Engagements
Pop the question, then celebrate in style. Ardbrae is a magical setting for an engagement party with family and friends, surrounded by vineyard views and the rolling hills of the Mornington Peninsula.
Corporate Retreats
Step away from the office and into the countryside. Ardbrae offers a private, inspiring setting for team retreats, strategy days, and end-of-year celebrations - where great ideas and good company come together.
Private Gatherings
Sometimes the occasion doesn't need a label - just the right people, the right setting, and time to breathe. Ardbrae is perfect for intimate gatherings, family reunions, and weekends that simply need to be remembered.
Farewell & Welcome Events
Mark a new chapter - a retirement, a homecoming, a send-off - in a setting that feels as significant as the moment itself. Ardbrae provides the perfect private backdrop for life's transitions.
Why Ardbrae
The Ardbrae Difference
Exclusively Yours
When you book Ardbrae, the entire property is yours and yours alone. No shared spaces, no strangers, no interruptions - just your guests, your vision, and the Red Hill countryside as your backdrop.
Bring Your Own Suppliers
We work with your chosen suppliers - whether that's a favourite food truck, marquee company, a private caterer, a florist, or musician - to bring your exact vision to life.
Stay the Night
Why limit the celebration to a few hours? Ardbrae sleeps your closest people, so the evening can go as long as it needs to. Wake up together the next morning and let the Peninsula magic continue.
A Setting Like No Other
Nestled among the rolling hills of Red Hill, Ardbrae offers sweeping views, manicured gardens, and an atmosphere of quiet elegance that makes every occasion feel truly special.
