AMBIENCE

There's so much to love about Domaine Thomson as a wedding venue!

It's your own private vineyard set quite a way off the main road.

The lawn is set up perfectly as a ceremony space.

A permanent rustic arch is nestled in a lush French country garden. Framing the vine covered rolling hills down to Lake Dunstan and beyond.

You can choose to add bench seating for your guests and let nature be your decoration or add subtle floral touches for a next level ceremony space.

The outdoor areas - the lawn and outdoor tables under shade sails are also excellent spaces to mingle with canapes after your ceremony.

Live music and garden games, brilliant additions.

'The Gallery' in the Domaine Thomson Cellar Door converts into a luxuriously relaxed reception space.

Large round tables to allow for the conversation to flow all evening. The walls a mix of Surveyor Thomson's - the surveyor and artist Domaine Thomson is named for - art, and big picture windows, framing the phenomonal view right up until the sun goes down.

With 'The Library' offering a small quiet space away from the celebrations.
