Wedding venues
Both venues share the same grounds, the same catering and the same team. The difference is atmosphere. One says "wow, this is stunning". The other says "wow, I feel at home".
Elegant and sophisticated
The centrepiece of The Orchard. Soaring ceilings, expansive open space and full-length opening windows that bring the grounds inside for a seamless indoor-outdoor flow from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception.
Warm and rustic
Named for the Penrith Panthers legend whose spirit shaped these grounds. Heritage timber and modern fireplaces create a space where guests relax the moment they walk in, with no need for elaborate styling.
Pavilion weddings
Get ready out of sight while your guests arrive, then make your entrance. The Pavilion's private bridal suite comes with every Pavilion wedding; the Woolshed has its own bridal preparation area.
Say your vows outdoors, then walk to the reception. Every spot is on the estate.
Wedding packages
Hire the venue and bring your own traditions, or hand the whole day to our team. Both options are available in The Pavilion and The Woolshed, weekdays and weekends.
Option 1
Exclusive use of your chosen venue for the day. Ideal for couples with specific cultural or religious requirements, or who want to bring in their own caterers and suppliers.
Option 2
Relax, celebrate and enjoy every moment. Our team takes care of every detail so you can focus on the people you love. 4-hour or full-day options.
Whichever venue you choose, your guests eat from the same kitchens. Menus are customisable, with vegan, gluten-free and children's options as standard.
All families, all love stories, all backgrounds
A personal partnership from first meeting to last dance, beautiful settings that need little embellishment, exceptional catering, flexible options for every culture and budget, and the authentic hospitality this place was built on.
“We chose the Woolshed because it felt like home from the moment we walked in.”
The Chen family
“The Orchard helped us create a celebration that felt effortless and beautiful.”
Priya and Marcus
“We felt the warmth, connection and meaning behind every detail.”
The Patakaian family
From first visit to the last dance, one wedding coordinator stays with you the whole way.
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.
