The Brampton Venue will have a capacity of 130 guests total, including the wedding party and excluding vendors.

For January, February and March 2026 the Brampton Venue will be open for Friday bookings.

The afternoon before the wedding you and your vendors will have access to the venue to set-up, as well as to do a ceremony rehearsal if you wish to do so.

On the wedding day the venue will be open in the morning if you or your vendors need to do any final set-up. The venue closure for events is 11:30pm.

You will also have access to the venue the morning after your wedding to complete the pack down and collect personal items, while we take care of the cleaning and rubbish removal.

We are a semi dry-hire venue, meaning we take care of the functional elements required for a marquee wedding, leaving you to focus on curating other elements to make the day unique to you.

Our venue is the perfect space for you to set-up and style according to your wedding day vision, whether through DIY or with the help of a Wedding Stylist or Florist.

We are lucky enough to have some amazing local vendors in this space, and will happily connect you with these businesses who can help to bring your plans to life within your budget.

We’ve partnered exclusively with a selection of fantastic caterers, each with delicious menu options at a variety of price points.

All of these businesses come highly recommended by previous couples, and are happy to tailor their menus to suit your tastes and preferences.

All catering enquiries and bookings are to be made directly with your chosen catering company.

Get in touch if you would like to review sample menus and pricing from our partner caterers.

Baylys’ Farm is a BYO venue, meaning you can supply your own alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages for your event with no corkage fee. Our Brampton Venue will have a purpose built bar under the marquee’s awning.

All bar service at Baylys' Farm is to be managed by local bar maestros Kindred Spirits. In addition to Bar Staff, the Kindred Spirits team can provide a variety of bar services and inventory for your wedding and will ensure you and your guests stay well hydrated throughout the event.

As an operating farm it is important to us that we keep our farm roads in good condition, and we also want to make sure everyone gets home safely at the end of the night. Therefore we ask that you book bus transport for your guests to arrive and depart in via Clarks Coaches. We are able to provide recommendations on bus numbers and timings.

Please note, the wedding party and vendors are able to drive onto the venue and we can provide parking for these vehicles. Other guests may drive under special circumstances, please contact us if you would like more information on this.

While we do not have any onsite accommodation the property is a 10-minute drive from Paihia, which is the tourist and accommodation hub for the Bay of Islands.

A lot of our couples book the larger holiday homes for themselves and wedding party, while guests can choose from a huge variety of hotels, motels, holiday homes and campgrounds which are all available at different price points.
