Receive your guests on the grounds of this elegant Georgian mansion, one of the nation's most important historic houses set within Parramatta Park with sweeping views of Parramatta River.
Old Government House is a UNESCO World Heritage-listed site and the oldest surviving public building in Australia. Located in the peaceful grounds of Parramatta Park, this elegant building was once home to the first ten colonial governors. Today, the grand Georgian exterior provides a stunning backdrop for wedding photos and small ceremonies.
The impressive portico at the front of the house makes an ideal location for photos, while the newly landscaped sandstone courtyard at the back of the building provides an intimate atmosphere rich with history. Give your guests a grand welcome at this World Heritage listed mansion in the heart of Parramatta.
