We celebrated our daughter's Christening at the Pavilion, and it was so beautiful. Our guests couldn't stop talking about the venue, the food, the service. The park was a huge hit with the kids. Natalie was a dream to work with.

We hosted a Brunch for Good charity event with 100 guests. Natalie is a true professional and it all ran so smoothly with delicious food. The wait staff were amazing and service gold class. We are so lucky to have such a quality venue locally.

Organising an event for a large group of 50 people can be stressful, especially on short notice, but the team handled everything seamlessly. The Stables was the perfect space. Bakery Brothers created a stunning custom gluten-free cake with only a few days' notice.

We held my father's wake here in the Pavilion. The gardens and venue are stunning and the staff were friendly and helpful with all our needs.

We recently had our daughter's birthday here and it was the best experience. Everyone was beyond happy with their food and even all the parents were relaxed as the kids were happy playing. Highly recommend holding your next celebration here!

I attended my sister in law's wedding at the Orchard, in the Pavilion. The venue in itself was amazing. The caterers were so accommodating, friendly and on the ball. The food was so good and fresh. The bridal suite was modern and very comfortable. 5 out of 5.

Why The Orchard

Celebrate your outdoor eventat The Orchard

Outdoor events at The Orchard happen on the Alfresco, a vine-covered riverside terrace with the Nepean on one side and the citrus orchard on the other, and on the lawns beside it. Long tables, festoon lights and a bar in the open air.

Every outdoor booking includes a covered fallback space confirmed the week before, so the weather is never a reason to cancel. Outdoor events finish at 10pm.
