Wow! My wedding at the Fitzroy Inn at Mittagong was an absolute fairytale! Carol, the wedding coordinator, was not only caring, kind, and incredibly helpful but also made sure every detail was perfect. The rooms and social areas through out the building were not just lovely but truly enchanting, adding a touch of warmth to the whole experience we especially loved the pool table and fire places! Booking out the rooms allowed us to create unforgettable memories unwinding with our loved ones in a cozy setting. The chef and I catering team were outstanding! Their friendliness and attention to detail made our dining experience exceptional. They truly went above and beyond to cater to our every need. And let's not forget the grounds and gardens - they were breathtakingly exquisite, providing the perfect backdrop for our special day. My heart is full of gratitude for the unforgettable moments we shared at the Fitzroy Inn. It was a day filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you to the entire team for making our wedding day truly magical!

Fitzroy Inn was such an amazing venue! Having the opportunity to have everything on site - ceremony, cocktail hour, reception and after party was the best thing! With the onsite accomodation too we were able to have the bridal party and both sets of parents stay with us. Highlight of the night was definitely the dungeon after party - all our guests have said they wanted to just keep dancing!

We recently had our ceremony and stayed at Fitzroy Inn and had the most special time. We mostly worked with Cathy and she was hard working and very competent, she made sure the whole day went off without a hitch! The accommodation was beautiful and comfortable. Perfect for our whole family to stay. Thank you all so much for such a perfect weekend! Anne & Ben ❤

Beautiful venue. It has everything from a ceremony space, reception marquee, cocktail lawn and accommodation for guests including brand new villas. Invoicing was confusing and we had to prompt a lot of the communication.

We first saw the Fitzroy Inn online and instantly felt drawn to it. This feeling continued during emailing with them and when we finally met them and saw the venue in person we knew we'd been right to trust our gut. The venue is stunning, with beautiful gardens, so much history in the buildings and the staff were so welcoming and friendly! Cathy went above and beyond for us, answering all our many many questions and was very accommodating in finalising our numbers about four times (thanks Covid!). A lot of venues had rigid time frames etc, but the Fitzroy Inn was happy to tailor our experience exactly as we wanted. Everything ran smoothly on the day (Cathy is a boss event planner), there are multiple stunning ceremony/reception locations, wet weather alternatives and accommodation on site.

What's a rough itinerary for a wedding long weekend?

Hi! We're planning a two day wedding weekend and would love ideas for how the weekend could go, including any pre or post celebrations.

Fitzroy Inn Southern Highlands

Hi there, we specialise in creating 'Wedding Weekends'. The itinerary is based on your personal preferences and activities - for example, we have included activities such as golf, yoga on our lawns, Italian cooking classes, cocktail making etc.. We also work closely with local businesses so can offer wedding pre dinner parties, recovery lunches also.

Email Leanne at info@fitzroyinn.com.au for more details and to book a wedding tour.

Eloping

Hi, we are looking to elope. Most packages we’ve seen for venues come with a celebrant and photographer. We’d like my partners brother to perform the ceremony but as he isn’t a registered celebrant we had looked at doing the legal bits during the week at the registry office. We also don’t require a photographer as we already have one from previous events we’d like to use again. Most elopement packages come with both of these things as a must have inclusion. Any suggestions??

Fitzroy Inn Southern Highlands

Hi Emma,

 

 We tailor each quote to each couple here at Fitzroy Inn, so you are only paying for what you actually need! You can have a package as simple as a venue hire fee only.

Send me through some more details of what you require, and I can send you a detailed quote - date, number of guests if any, champagne and canapes required for post ceremony? and anything else.

Kind Regards,

Leanne.

Ph: 0492 592 197

Is it possible to have an all inclusive wedding reception for 100 people for $15,000 or less

Ideally want a cocktail style reception with a DJ for entertainment. Do not want a rustic style wedding venue.

Fitzroy Inn Southern Highlands

Good morning!

Yes of course, we work with couples to tailor each package to the individual wedding. The pricing depends on day of the week you get married, for example a mid week or Sunday wedding will be your most budget friendly, and then of course with food options, we offer canape/ cocktail style also, which is cheaper than the traditional alternate drop. With beverage packages, we offer BYO options, three, five and six hour beverage packages.

We have a great list of music/ DJ options.

The Fitzroy Inn is a stunning and stylish country venue, offering an upmarket and unique setting for a Southern Highlands wedding. 

If you would like to have a wedding tour, please email info@fitzroyinn.com.au and we would love to welcome you both!
