Why have a Wedding at bilston Creek FARM?

Nestled in the heart of Metchosin, Bilston Creek Farm feels like stepping into a dream — a place where rolling lavender fields, century-old apple trees, and a charming farmyard make this historic wedding venue shine. Bilston began hosting weddings in 2019, after years of restoration work on the property.

1. A stunning natural backdrop.
From wildflower meadows to forest edges and seaside breezes, Bilston offers a variety of backdrops for romantic portraits and ceremonies that want to celebrate in an old-world and charming way. The lavender fields, in particular, are vibrant and iconic — soft purples against golden tones of peak summer create a soft and fragrant experience.

2. Historic charm with modern comforts.
Founded in the 1800s, the farm has been beautifully restored with respect for its roots. Couples can exchange vows beside the orchard, dine under twinkle lights, and celebrate in the open-air barn — all while enjoying thoughtfully designed modern amenities.

3. Space for connection and quality time.
Bilston encourages slow, intentional celebrations. With its private setting, cozy accommodations, getting ready space, and warm, welcoming energy, it’s ideal for weddings and elopements that feel personal and relaxed and private, especially with the bell tent accommodation onsite and full venue available for rent.

4. Locally rooted luxury.

5. Endless photo opportunities.
Every season at Bilston has its charm — spring blossoms, summer lavender, autumn harvest tones, and even cozy winter light. From the nearby beach, to the lavender fields, and the charming old country barn yard there are so many options to animate the space.
