Lauriston House
About
Overview & Vibe
Lauriston House is a heritage-listed 1880s mansion in Dundas Valley, north-west of Sydney's CBD — one of the city's most established exclusive-use wedding estates. The venue hosts one wedding at a time, so the entire house, ballroom and gardens belong to you and your guests for the night.
Setting & Style
Ceremonies unfold in manicured gardens beneath blooming flowers and a charming gazebo, with an outdoor terrace for vows or cocktail hour. Inside, the restored Victorian mansion carries celebrations through to a white ballroom dancefloor, with the in-house culinary team plating custom banquet menus. The mood is classic, romantic and generously old-school — pianists, fireworks and vintage-car arrivals are all part of the repertoire.
Ideal For
Couples who want a traditional garden-and-ballroom wedding with everything handled in-house — seated receptions to 200 guests or cocktail celebrations to 350, including same-sex weddings.
The Need-to-Knows
- Capacity: up to 200 seated or 350 cocktail-style, with exclusive use of the entire house and grounds.
- Ultimate Wedding Package: award-winning four-course banquet, unlimited beverage package, arrival cocktails with live pianist and the white ballroom dancefloor.
- Custom menus accommodate specific dietary requirements and preferences.
- Current promotion: $30 off per person for 2026/2027 weddings; optional extras from fireworks and gelato carts to photo booths.
Standout Feature
True exclusivity in a genuine Victorian mansion — no other event shares the estate, so the gardens, gazebo, ballroom and grand entrance are yours from first ceremony note to final dance.
