Historic Building Wedding Venues

A venue may photograph well, but images cannot convey the warmth and character of a place when you experience it for yourself. In addition, it is understandable to wonder whether costs might change or if you might speak with someone different each time you call as your wedding day draws near. At Jaspers Berry, our luxury wedding venue has a character shaped by its history, from the Old School House built in 1897 to the Magic Faraway Tree dating to around 1850. The warmth you feel at the venue also traces back to owner Rosi, who spent her childhood in Rabaul, Papua New Guinea, where colonial plantation homes, fine bone china and generous hospitality shaped her sense of welcome. Rosi and her trusted colleague, Sue, guide you personally from your first enquiry through to your unforgettable wedding day, with no handoffs or change of contact as your plans progress. Every corner of our venue and grounds is open for an exclusive hire, with no other wedding or event taking place while you celebrate. Besides our venue, the village of Berry offers an even greater experience for travelling guests, with colonial streetscapes to wander, acclaimed restaurants to enjoy and access to Seven Mile Beach. So, whether you are exploring ‘historic building wedding venues’ or ‘hire a house for a wedding‘, you can find a setting shaped by history, personal guidance and privacy.

For multicultural weddings, we welcome Mandap ceremonies, Poruwa ceremonies, Chinese tea ceremonies, Persian banquets, Afro-Caribbean celebrations and more, with a respectful approach to the traditions and family expectations that matter to you. And something that no other venue has appeared to have formalised here on the NSW South Coast: we also accommodate events on auspicious dates. Beyond this flexibility, 2 dedicated preparation spaces offer both sides of the wedding party a peaceful place to prepare and unwind. The Bridal Salon offers sumptuous Hollywood Regency rooms with features like a private boudoir dressing room and a makeup or hair station for your own artists. Meanwhile, the Gentlemen’s Club Lounge gives the groom’s party their own space, with personal steward service and curiosities, including a 1950s Whisky Cabinet, Oxford Canoe, Vintage Boys Planes, Chesterfields and Tartans. Then comes the Colonial Garden Party, a signature menu of our wedding packages for nearly 20 years, where people can enjoy feasting on Shared Platters of delicious food. Those exploring ‘historic building wedding venues’ will also be pleased to know that our Meadow to Table Philosophy adds vegetables and salad leaves grown at Jaspers Meadows, our sister property, to meals prepared by our in-house chefs. So, whether you are interested in ‘historic mansion wedding venues‘ or ‘cattai wedding venue‘, count on us to provide amenities and additions that feel truly incorporated into the celebration.

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. Each room includes air-conditioning, a bar fridge with refreshments, and tea- and coffee-making facilities, with the accommodation opening onto a central landscaped courtyard with a plunge pool. Over a country breakfast the following morning, house guests can enjoy more time together. And for additional rooms, Jaspers Meadows is approximately 1 km away in O’Keeffe’s Lane. A sandstone outdoor fireplace, plunge pool and meadow garden are among the features of this setting, which sleeps up to 10 guests. When planning around changing weather conditions, you can rely on our venue to operate across all 4 seasons. As part of our precinct, The Orangery has a fully air-conditioned interior and surrounding verandahs that provide an alternative when an outdoor ceremony or garden activity cannot go ahead as planned. For added flexibility when you are exploring ‘wedding venues New South Wales‘, ‘wedding ceremony outdoor venues‘ and beyond, midweek celebrations are also available and can sometimes offer shorter lead times than peak weekend dates.
