Unusual Wedding Ideas

Couples searching for a venue on the NSW South Coast can only see so much from pictures and an inviting venue on the internet might not be as welcoming or cosy in person. And then there is the question of who will be guiding you and if it will be the same people throughout or a rotation of coordinators you have never met before. At Jaspers Berry, the unique charm you experience at our luxury wedding venue has been shaped over generations, beginning with the Magic Faraway Tree dating to around 1850 and the Old School House built in 1897. The personal character of the venue draws from owner Rosi’s upbringing in Rabaul, Papua New Guinea, where fine bone china, colonial plantation homes and generous hospitality left an impression she carried into every room. Rosi and her trusted colleague, Sue, will guide you personally from your first enquiry through to your unforgettable wedding day. In addition, you can book an exclusive hire of the entire venue and grounds, ensuring your guests can freely enjoy the property without worrying about other events nearby. Beyond the grounds, the village of Berry welcomes you with colonial streetscapes, acclaimed restaurants and nearby Seven Mile Beach. Whether you are researching ‘unusual wedding ideas’ or ‘wedding ideas‘, you can expect personal guidance shaped around your priorities.

At Jaspers Berry, every tradition and family expectation you hold dear has a place in your celebration. From the sacred fire beneath a Mandap and a Poruwa ceremony to Chinese tea ceremonies, Persian banquets and Afro-Caribbean celebrations, we collaborate with you so every tradition is woven naturally into the shape of your day rather than fitting these around a strict format. Shared Platters are served ‘en famille’ and bring feasting, conversation and generosity to every table. Our Meadow to Table Philosophy brings together quality locally sourced ingredients and the vegetables and salad leaves our sister property, Jaspers Meadows grows in its own market garden. You can also supply your own beverages with no corkage fee, giving those interested in ‘unusual wedding ideas’ the freedom to choose the wines, beers and spirits. Separate preparation spaces allow both sides of the wedding party to get ready on-site, with the Bridal Salon offering Hollywood Regency rooms, good lighting, full-length mirrors and a porcelain bath. On the other side, the Gentlemen’s Club Lounge gives the groom’s party their own space with personal steward service. We also offer wedding packages for different celebration sizes and formats, so when you are searching for ‘wedding reception ideas‘ or ‘wedding party ideas‘, you can find an option that suits your celebration.

Midweek dates are available for couples who want greater flexibility around when they celebrate.

Once you are ready to explore your options, you can contact us by calling 1800 817 402 or emailing info@jaspersberry.com.au and we will personally show you around Jaspers Berry. Your first conversation with us is where we lay out everything included in your package, so you can see how the venue and accommodation work within your plans. As you shape the rest of the day, it is also worth allowing for external costs such as photography and videography, stationery, hair and makeup, entertainment and your wedding cake. A change in weather still leaves you with The Orangery and surrounding verandahs as a considered alternative, with full air-conditioning available for comfort.
