We had our Reception using the beautiful courtyard and the chapel. It was a beautiful day/night & thank you to Alison & her incredible team. Alison goes above and beyond to make sure the day/night goes smoothly and without any flaws. Could not have asked for anything more. Alison’s dedication, creativity and tireless efforts have truly taken our Wedding to new heights! Everyone had a good time and commented on how beautiful the venue is, the friendly staff, beautiful decorations and wonderful food. Thank you Alison and the team for making our day/night run seamlessly and ensuring our guests had the best time celebrating with us. We highly recommend this beautiful venue Darling St Chapel to anyone who would like to have a gorgeous and well organised Wedding. Thank you so much Alison from the bottom of our hearts.

My husband and I were married here a few weeks ago and it was absolutely magical! Ali the coordinator is fantastic and so organised that it really took the weight off and reduced stress on the day. Our celebrant Michelle is lovely and was so flexible with helping sort out some issues with paperwork before the wedding and she ran the ceremony beautifully. Robbie the DJ was great- he made sure to play all our song requests and kept the other song choices within the theme. The other staff at the chapel were also lovely and very helpful. The chapel itself is gorgeous and so well setup and decorated, and the food was delicious! We can’t thank all of you enough! Nish and I, as well as our families and friends all had such a wonderful and memorable time.

We had such a beautiful day thanks to Alison and her team! I barely had to lift a finger as Alison took care of everything and looked after us through the whole process and the day itself. All the staff were friendly and hospitable, and the food was all delicious. Our family and friends all commented how good it was! I highly recommend this beautiful venue if you want a stress free and memorable wedding!
