Most homestead wedding venues in Australia are self catering. This means you have the freedom to choose your own caterers and BYO drinks, and generally have exclusive use of the homestead and onsite facilities to create the wedding of your dreams. 

Most homesteads that specialise in wedding venue hire have a preferred supplier list that recommends vendors who have previously supplied services to weddings on the property. Whatever you will need to hire for your wedding will be available from the vendors on this list. Some homesteads supply all furniture, tableware, plates, glasses and sufficient bathroom amenities for weddings, while others supply very little. Homesteads with the most inclusions tend to be cheaper in the long run.
