With a couple of the best wedding ceremony venues in Sydney, Pyrmont is a wonderful place where you can enjoy the shore life. It used to quite neglected, but after 1990 it went under renovation and turned into the most densely populated suburb of Australia. While Barangaroo is still under development, the area contains a charming landmark waterfront (Barangaroo Reserve) where you can enjoy the fresh breeze of the sea. If you’re looking for a wedding ceremony with a view of the Sydney Harbour, this is the right spot. Another place that you can also find at the shore is The Rocks, a historical area full of culture, food, and markets. Why not explore a beautiful district before or after the wedding ceremony?

Ideally, you should start searching for your ideal ceremony venue once you’ve decided on a date and set a budget. This should take place no later than 6 months in advance. However, we always recommend doing so at least one year before the date. You’ll have many more options to choose from and you won’t need to rush the decision-making process.

When you book an event space for your ceremony, you will receive access to everything that comes with it. This may include tables and chairs, lighting equipment and AV equipment as well as other amenities such as parking lots or outdoor seating areas. You might also have exclusive access to the space during your event time. However, always make sure to ask venue managers about everything that is included in the contract before signing, so that you are clear on what is included and what you will need to hire from other vendors.
