The soft afternoon light dances playfully with the lush foliage of a peaceful citrus orchard as a bride and groom stroll hand-in-hand among the hanging vines and whispering trees. They pause and silently reflect on new beginnings as the sweet, orange-scented breeze ripples through her delicate dress. They embrace there in the landscaped gardens before returning to clinking glasses and robust congratulations as their family and friends celebrate together under the 'Grand Marquee'. These are not the musings of a Hollywood scriptwriter, but well within your reach at Sydney's most unique function centre, Burnham Grove. Less than one hour's drive from Sydney, Wollongong, and the Southern Highlands, and just minutes from the centre of Camden, experience the best at this heritage wedding reception venue. You will fall in love with the completely private setting the moment you drive through the wrought iron gates and up the rose-lined driveway, but the affair will only deepen as you discover the acres of architect-designed gardens, fountains, ponds, and of course, the magnificent citrus orchard, that all make Burnham Grove the perfect venue for your garden wedding. But Burnham Grove truly creates its reputation as a premium outdoor wedding venue when guests cast their eyes on the opulent silk-lined 'Grand Marquee', complete with stunning chandeliers and catering comfortably for up to 130 people.  And while you bask in the 19th-century grandeur of it all, you won't go without the contemporary conveniences you'd expect from any five-star function centre, including modern bathroom facilities and plenty of off-street security parking. Burnham Grove also prides itself on its flexibility and, when its booking schedule allows, is happy to offer its grounds for wedding ceremony or reception only, or can even accommodate couples simply looking for a breathtaking backdrop for wedding photography that will keep your memories vivid for decades to come. And to keep the experience astounding you long after your guests go home, don't forget to ask the friendly staff about Burnham Grove's exclusive honeymoon package that will introduce you to the wonders of the south of France. Yet Burnham Grove is not exclusively a wedding reception venue, and welcomes many types of celebrations and festivities into its grounds. Built in the late 1880s, an extensive 1984 renovation brought the house and grounds back to their former glory, and it remains an impressive location for any type of corporate function, private celebration or lavish 21st birthday party. Burnham Grove is an ideal Outdoor & Garden Wedding Rural & Heritage Venue near Camden, situated in Macarthur, midway between Sydney & The Southern Highlands, and is perfect for a country wedding close to home.
