Kalinya Estate

Kalinya Estate is a stunning, 5-star wedding venue just an hour from Sydney CBD, at the gateway to the Southern Highlands. This private Estate combines its heritage bones with modern design and elegant sprawling gardens, offering couples a beautiful, unique setting for a full two-day wedding experience. Ceremonies, photography and videography can be held across the 6 acres of award-winning gardens, followed by the ultimate garden party spaces. These enchanting gardens are the perfect place to say ‘I do’, with multiple beautiful locations on the manicured grounds for you to choose from - you’ll be spoiled for choice. For the second part of the year's wedding day, move your celebrations to the grand, fully equipped Carriage House for stunning indoor receptions. 

The Carriage House has high ceilings, french basket crystal chandeliers, an outdoor travertine terrace, and a timber dancefloor. The best part? This stunning reception space can be opened entirely onto the award-winning gardens. It dusk and into the evenings, the enchanting gardens become filled with twinkling fairy lights, festoons and uplights into the feature trees.

What are three things couples love about working with you?

• We host only one wedding over the course of days, not one brief event, so our couples and their guests are special to us and receive our full attention.
• The premises are immaculate and offer guests an array of experiences and entertainment options to enhance their stay. 
• Couples can create a unique and entirely private wedding experience by utilising a variety of spaces and never having to leave the Estate.

"My new husband and I were recently married at Kalinya Estate. Our entire experience with Mandy and Bec was faultless. While looking for our venue we visited a few other places that just didn't feel right and often the services provided were a one size fits all approach, with no leeway for what we wanted for our day. As soon as we met Mandy the first thing she asked was 'what do you want your day to look like?' and she did absolutely everything to assist us with a bespoke day that was absolutely perfect for us. From the beautiful manicured gardens, to the grand lodgings, the plethora of activities and... OH THE PIANO BAR! This place is all of the elegance without any pretentiousness. Future celebrations are looking great at Kalinya!"  Nicole
