Imagine holding a wedding at Sylvan Glen Estate in the Southern Highlands of NSW - the homestead is the base for your close family and friends to stay and the party goes with a swing in our beautiful function rooms overlooking the golf course.

A wedding is too big a celebration to hold over just one day. A wedding at Sylvan Glen Estate can be spread over the whole weekend, enjoying your special time in relaxation, without time limits and other brides queuing up behind you waiting for the room.

With the homestead your own, prepare on Friday with an intimate dinner with family and friends, then after the big day, invite your guests back on Sunday for a delicious brunch and catch up on all yesterday's events.

Garden Ceremonies

Say your I do’s in our beautiful gardens, just steps from the bridal suite and guest accommodation.

The Sylvan Glen Estate reception centre caters for up to 140 people seated with chill out spaces and cosy bar area in a rustic luxe style, leading out on to an outdoor area for canapés and games.

Wedding Accommodation

For our wedding couples there is a lavish bridal suite with queen four post bed, Italian linen and air conditioning, with a rustic and spacious separate wing we call 'The Salon' - hidden away, it's perfect for hair and make up and bridal preparations.

Booking the whole house will ensure that you have privacy and exclusive use of this exquisite property for you and your guests.

Exclusivity can be yours

A romantic bridal suite

A place to get ready

A room for the groom

Sometimes the hair and makeup takes a LONG time. So we made a room to amuse the groom. The Groom’s Room at Sylvan Glen is set up just for the boys (or anyone, at the Groom’s discretion!).

Play a round of golf, then settle in and enjoy the x-box, pool table and arcade games. You’ve got everything you need to get suited-up, too. You’re welcome.

If the groom needs a place to crash on wedding-eve, let us know, we’ve got you covered.

Very civilised drinks in the garden

Yes it’s all quite posh. After the ceremony, your guests will be ushered over to the garden by the pond, where they’ll enjoy Champagne served from our Tiffany blue retro Champervan, and pluck delicious canapés from silver platters.

They’ll play boules and garden chess and watch the sun go down over the trees in the distance. The best part about all this is it gives you a guilt-free hour or two for awesome photos around the property, knowing your guests are having a brilliant time.

A wedding they’ll talk about

Your guests will talk about your wedding reception for years to come—guaranteed. Invite up to 140 of your closest pals to enjoy the serviced bar, dance floor and chill-out spaces in our function room.

An interesting thing about Sylvan Glen is that you can bring your own alcohol. Yep! You’ll save loads and it’ll be set up and served by our professional bar staff so no one will ever know. We supply all the non-alcoholic drinks.

You’re welcome to have a band or DJ and a photobooth, and you’re free to choose from hundreds of decorations with our own wedding guru, Donna.

Sylvan Glen has a relaxed atmosphere and never fails to host the most fun, romantic and happy wedding celebrations. Have a look at what our brides and grooms have to say.

Room for your nearest and dearest to stay

Why have a wedding in the Southern Highlands without inviting your family and friends to party the whole weekend with you? There are plenty of comfy beds in our heritage guesthouse, with 15 lovingly decorated, private ensuite rooms. The guesthouse also features plenty of rooms to catch-up or cosy-up in front of the fire.

For the rest of your guests, there’s lots of really nice accommodation in Bundanoon. It’s a short 10 minutes away and we’ll happily lead the group songs as we cart everyone back and forth in the Sylvan Glen bus.
