Sweven Estate

Located an hour away from Sydney’s CBD, Sweven Estate is a high-end, architecturally designed luxury retreat with magnificent surrounds. A private and secluded property, this plush homestead is perfect for DIY weddings of any theme or style, and features everything you could possibly need for your dream wedding. This includes breathtaking country views, manicured gardens, a luxurious lodge with space for up to 24 people, a large water feature, plenty of scenic photo locations, and plenty of room for a marquee under the stars.

While Sweven Estate is largely a DIY wedding venue, with room for couples to hire a marquee, bring in their own caterers, and design their wedding as they wish, this property can offer a truly spectacular culinary experience. For smaller weddings, the property’s head chef can provide tasty meals and canapes. Planning an intimate occasion? You might like to work with Sweven Estate’s experienced chefs to create a bespoke menu that meets your dietary needs, wedding theme, and palette preferences.

Your wedding at Sweven Estate might take place in a number of dreamy ceremony sites on the grounds, while your reception can either kick off in a marquee or - for more intimate weddings - in the exquisite homestead. This luxurious retreat has been standing tall since 2012, and was designed by the renowned Timothy Moon Architects. The lodge’s design is tree-house like, and offers a plush entertaining area with a fireplace, many verandas, timber and stone pavilions, and an Asian-style moat. 

Couples are invited to stay in this magnificent lodge in the days leading up to and after their wedding. There is room for up to 13 lucky bridal party members to stay the night, too. You’ll all be privy to gorgeous countryside views, an open plan kitchen, an infinity pool, and dining room that leads into an outdoor BBQ area - it will make for one relaxing, stress-free escape from the city.

“We celebrated our engagement party with a small group of friends at Sweven and they organised a private chef and gourmet menu.  The food was delicious and the service impeccable. Definitely an experience to remember.  Would be an amazing location for a destination wedding. Thank you Miranda for your help."
