Top Wedding Reception Venues in Sydney

There are so many decisions to make when it comes to planning a wedding – so we’re going to make it a little bit easier for you. Below is a list of some of our favourite Sydney Wedding Reception Venues. And because a site visit can sometimes make it difficult to envisage what the venue will look like fully styled, we’ve included some of our photos to give you the full picture.


Four Seasons

If grandeur is your style, then the opulence of the Four Seasons Ballroom is perfect for your wedding day. Need big? Did we mention it holds 1,000 guests canape style!  But don’t fear if your numbers are a little more conservative, the room can be split in two. And if your man knows his tech, he’s going to be super impressed with their 12 metre wide x 3.5 metre LED screen that can show 4K video!

If an overflowing abundance or greens and florals is your style, The Grounds of Alexandria is definitely for you.

Pier One

If you want to touch the sparkling water of the harbour and gaze up at the wonder of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, this is the venue for you! It is Iconic Sydney at it’s finest. Even better, if you’ve got guests travelling from interstate, they can stay right on site at the Pier One which is an Autograph Hotel. This is also one of our favourite hotels for Bridal Prep shots. Its big windows let in lots of lovely romantic light, and the larger floor plans give you and your girls plenty of space to get ready. We’ve shot at this Sydney wedding venue so many times, we have 2 albums in the foyer. Their wedding co-ordinator, Olive, is super hard working offering her couples late night and weekend appointments for venue inspections, to make life that little bit easier.
