Kalinya Estate is an award-winning, 5-star wedding venue located an hour from Sydney. Luxurious and modern, this Estate combines its heritage bones with modern design, offering couples a beautiful place for their reception, while ceremonies can be held in the magical gardens. With capacity for 200 guests and on-site lodging, this venue is a must for any couples after a dreamy wedding experience.
Nestled on a five-acre property just over an hour out of Sydney sits Kalinya Estate, a luxurious, modern wedding venue that offers complete privacy. Lavishly restored and renovated, this Estate is an excellent find if you’re after an award-winning venue that feels a world away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Kalinya Estate offers couples a truly lovely reception space: The Carriage House, a function room with space for up to 150 seated guests or 200 cocktail-style. It has high ceilings, festoon lighting, an outdoor travertine terrace, and a timber dance floor. The best part? This stunning centre opens up onto the award-winning gardens. 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.
This beautiful Estate also offers a unique, boutique experience, and asks that their couples enjoy the luxurious, secluded Estate for at least two nights. This means you can take time to relax before or after your wedding, in either The Homestead (an immaculate venue with colonial architecture and craftsmanship), The Lodge (an 18th century French-rural chalet with exposed timber beams under elevated ceilings) or The Barn.
You’ll want to enjoy the breathtaking surroundings, exquisite 5-star accommodation, relaxed recovery breakfast, and native beauty of this tranquil area, too. And with a large swimming pool, romantic gazebo, state-of-the-art equipment, woodfire pizza oven, ornamental grape vine walkway, outdoor hot tub, and private fire pit, there’s plenty of reasons to love Kalinya Estate.

“We had our wedding there on the weekend and it is still just as beautiful (if not more) than when we first saw the place 18 months ago. Mandy and her team were amazing and made it an experience to remember. Everyone kept saying they didn’t know this place existed (we hope more people can share in this magical place). We hope to return one day in the future to relive our special day.” Emily
