Your ceremony at Sergeants’ Mess Sydney
At Sergeants’ Mess, couples have the option to wed in a beautiful ceremony on the manicured grounds, or in the modern, stunning main dining room.
The outdoor ceremony garden is surrounded by a mix of natural bush and manicured foliage, and looks out directly over Sydney Harbour. Your guests will watch you exchange your wedding vows with sweeping views in the background — perfect for breathtaking wedding photographs.
There is space for couples to bring in a decorated arch for their ceremony if they wish, although with the natural beauty of the area on full display, you may opt not to. Conveniently, the ceremony space is situated right next to the reception venue, so your guests can easily and quickly make their way to the wedding festivities after the ceremony is over.
Alternatively, you might choose to marry under the large tree to the left of the view of Sydney Harbour, in order to have a mix of natural foliage and harbour backdrops in your weddings photos.
If wet weather strikes on your wedding day, Sergeants’ Mess has a lovely wet weather option for couples inside the venue space. It’s elevated and boasts pristine Sydney Harbour views, so your guests can still enjoy the natural beauty of the space while safely away from the elements.
Your reception at Sergeants’ Mess Sydney
Sergeants’ Mess offers couples two impressive, romantic wedding reception venues to choose from for their wedding day. Both are surrounded by native bushland and are safe from the elements. And each offers breathtaking views of Sydney Harbour, contemporary, stylish design, and world-class catering by a team of highly experienced chefs.
The modern main dining room at Sargeants’ Mess wedding venue is chic, with pillars and chandeliers hanging overhead, a large dancefloor, and a wall of windows overlooking Watsons Bay and Rose Bay — it’s quite the vantage point. Your wedding here might start with a ceremony in the garden followed by a plated three-course meal made from locally-sourced ingredients served in the main dining room.
Then, you and up to 250 of your nearest and dearest can dance into the wee hours on the large, central dancefloor. If your loved ones wish to further enjoy the delightful view, a timber deck with ambient lighting wraps around the room, offering prime viewing of Sydney Harbour. Of course, you can always choose to have your reception out on the deck itself.
The deck is an alfresco reception option — perfect for warm, summer evening weddings or moody winter receptions. It’s a stylish, undercover area, with room for up to 250 guests, and it boasts unbeatable views of Neilsen Park and Rose Bay.
Your wedding reception on the deck will see your guests mingle around the gorgeous space cocktail-style — perfect for couples looking for a contemporary, outdoor wedding without the fear of bad weather. At a standing cocktail reception, trays of mouthwatering, fresh canapés can be brought around the deck so your guests can sip on their delicious beverages and choose the fare they’d like — including those with specific dietary requirements.
Whether you’d prefer something more traditional and romantic or modern and trendy, the team at Sergeants’ Mess wedding venue can work with you to create your dream wedding reception.

Did a very good job hosting a large number of guests for a traditional hindu wedding. They are able to accommodate traditional ceremonies and were quite flexible in our requests (within the limits of being in a national park). Food was delicious, staff are very responsive and helpful and the views are beautiful.

The team at Sergeants were wonderful. They worked really well with us over email and answered our questions promptly, despite us being overseas in America. They were on the ball with all our special requests and need. […] The food was delicious.
