OVERVIEW

Couples love Pier One Sydney Harbour for its desirable waterfront location and diverse function spaces both inside and out. Whether you’re after an indoor wedding reception looking out through floor-to-ceiling glass windows onto Sydney Harbour or Walsh Bay, or an alfresco ceremony in the marquee wedding venue under the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Pier One has everything you hoped for.

There are lots of choices for your wedding flow at this scenic Sydney wedding venue. You might start the day with a unique outdoor wedding ceremony where the rippling waters meet the pier, with views of the Harbour Bridge behind you. Then welcome your guests into the Bridge Marquee, where they can sip on crisp glasses of champagne and gaze up at the looming Sydney Harbour Bridge. Later on, you could create the ultimate disco atmosphere as the sunset blazes into the Dawes Point Room. The Water Room is argueably Sydney's best waterfront venue, with panoramic views of the harbour, Luna Park , Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House. Opening windows and doors flow out to the pier and harbour for pre and post celebations. 

Across the sprawling Pier One Sydney Harbour pontoon, there are limitless possibilities for wedding photography. Possible backdrops include the beautiful waterfront jetty, beneath the majestic Sydney Harbour Bridge, or some newlyweds decide to charter a private boat cruise around the harbour for spellbinding shots on the water.

Beautiful hotel and Walsh Bay Suite room. We had a great time and the staff were really friendly and accommodating while we prepared for our wedding and the day after. Eugene was especially fantastic along with Hatty and Phil. The servers at the Gantry who would deliver our food were so friendly and the food was great! Doreen was also really helpful from the front desk. Overall, we had a great time which is also why we decided to extend our stay for one more night. We would go back there again!

Not only does Pier One have amazing views, the staff was so accommodating, food was awesome and my two night stay had the best service. I experienced a very smooth wedding planning experience with Rosie, who was responsive and meticulous. My guests raved about the food and views both at the ceremony (Bridge Marquee) and reception (Water).

This venue was a clear winner for our wedding ceremony and reception as it has a direct view of the picturesque Sydney Harbour bridge. We held the ceremony on the Pier and reception space to accommodate 80 guests was in the marquee. The events manager at Pier One ensured our wedding specifications were met, service staff, bar tender and security were professional and friendly. Food sampling was complimentary and organised in a timely manner. Communication between event space and vendors was clear and prompt. Our guests could not stop raving about the quality of the food at dinner time and accommodations for BYO was perfect as it was a must when we were looking around for suitable venues. Our guests loved the location of the venue and the event ran smoothly.
