Ideas For Intimate Wedding

Finding a luxury wedding venue often means trying to work out if a place will really feel as genuine in person as it does in photographs, especially if you are choosing a place for its character. At Jaspers Berry, the details themselves have a story to tell. Since around 1850 the Magic Faraway Tree has grown on this property, while the Old School House has welcomed people through our doors since 1897, giving your celebration a heritage that no other wedding venue could replicate. We are the first venue of our kind on the NSW South Coast and the years of welcoming couples have influenced our approach to food and personal service that grows from real experience, not passing trends. And for an unforgettable wedding day, the entire venue and grounds are available for exclusive hire, so no other event shares the property while you are here. Additionally, for guests travelling from Sydney or Wollongong, the village of Berry offers more to explore, from colonial streetscapes and lauded restaurants to the sands of Seven Mile Beach. As you look into ‘ideas for intimate wedding’ or ‘wildwood Kangaroo Valley‘, know that our destination already has its own story before your celebration even begins.

Our Meadow to Table Philosophy includes vegetables and salad leaves grown in the market garden at Jaspers Meadows, our sister property, before they are prepared by our in-house chefs using quality locally sourced ingredients. That produce features in the Colonial Garden Party Menu, a Jaspers Berry signature for nearly 20 years, with Shared Platters making the celebration one of generosity and feasting. Beginning with arrival sandwiches and lemonades, the meal moves through long canapé service, the Vintage Gatsby Chocolate Bar, mains with return service, and closes with a late supper of ham, fruit cake, donuts, popcorn and port. Before the celebration begins, the Bridal Salon gives one side of the wedding party a dedicated space to prepare. The Gentlemen’s Club Lounge, meanwhile, offers the groom’s party its own room and personal steward service. You can also choose from 4 wedding packages shaped around different celebrations, from the Traditional Wedding Package for 65 to 200 guests to the Elopement Wedding Package for up to 8 guests. For those interested in ‘ideas for intimate wedding’, ‘small wedding places near me‘ or ‘small wedding reception ideas‘, you can also enjoy a Colonial High Tea experience with us if you book the Bridal Salon.

For close family members or members of the wedding party who would like to stay a little longer, our on-site Jaspers Berry Guest House offers 8 rooms for up to 18 guests. In every room, you will find air-conditioning, a bar fridge with refreshments, and tea- and coffee-making facilities, with a central landscaped courtyard featuring a plunge pool opening off the accommodation. The following morning brings another opportunity for house guests to spend time together over a country breakfast. And should you need additional rooms, Jaspers Meadows is approximately 1 km away in O’Keeffe’s Lane. The property sleeps up to 10 guests and features a sandstone outdoor fireplace, plunge pool and meadow garden. If you want to plan for changing weather conditions, our venue can operate across all 4 seasons. Within our precinct, The Orangery offers a fully air-conditioned interior and surrounding verandahs as an alternative when an outdoor ceremony or garden activity cannot proceed as planned. For added flexibility when you are exploring ‘worrowing Jervis Bay‘, ‘destination wedding destinations‘ and beyond, midweek celebrations are also available and can sometimes offer shorter lead times than peak weekend dates.
