Venue And Reception

What photos you see of a venue online can be impressive, but it is only after you visit it that you get a sense of how it really is. To add to that, you may be concerned about hidden costs or being passed between different coordinators as your wedding approaches. 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. Owner Rosi’s upbringing in Rabaul, Papua New Guinea, among colonial plantation homes, fine bone china and generous hospitality, also brought a personal warmth to the venue. 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. Because our venue extends across the full venue and grounds as an exclusive hire, you will not be sharing the property with another wedding or event. On top of our venue, travelling guests will find even more to explore in the village of Berry itself, from colonial streetscapes and acclaimed restaurants to the wide stretch of Seven Mile Beach. So, whether you are exploring ‘venue and reception’ or ‘reception wedding reception‘, you can find a setting shaped by history, personal guidance and privacy.

As part of our Meadow to Table Philosophy, the vegetables and salad leaves used for the menu are grown in the market garden at Jaspers Meadows, our sister property, then prepared by our in-house chefs using quality locally sourced ingredients. As part of the Colonial Garden Party Menu, a Jaspers Berry signature for nearly 20 years, that produce accompanies Shared Platters that shape the celebration around 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 ‘venue and reception’, ‘venue for wedding‘ or ‘reception wedding party‘, 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. Inside each room are air-conditioning, a bar fridge with refreshments, and tea- and coffee-making facilities, while the accommodation leads out to a central landscaped courtyard with a plunge pool. The following morning brings another opportunity for house guests to spend time together over a country breakfast. For extra rooms, you can also find Jaspers Meadows approximately 1 km away in O’Keeffe’s Lane. This setting sleeps up to 10 guests and includes features like a sandstone outdoor fireplace, plunge pool and meadow garden. When planning around changing weather conditions, you can rely on our venue to 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 ‘vow renewal ideas‘, ‘getting married in New South Wales‘ and beyond, midweek celebrations are also available and can sometimes offer shorter lead times than peak weekend dates.
