Montrose House - Sutton Forest, New South Wales

We had an absolutely incredible experience at Montrose House for our wedding! From start to finish, Daniela had thought of everything. We were provided with a portal with information/guides and a Google Doc to include details and any questions (which were answered promptly), making planning so much easier. The tasting lunch we attended with our parents allowed us to experience the food, drinks, styling options and venue firsthand before the big day.

What really stood out was how Daniela and her team took care of every single detail. There was no need for any DIY on our part (we simply had to drop off our signage on the day). They set up everything perfectly and touched base with our vendors in the days prior, allowing us to fully enjoy our special day without any stress. The grounds were stunning, providing the perfect backdrop for our ceremony, garden party and reception.

Another highlight of the Montrose House package was the beautiful cottage accommodation provided. It was the perfect place for us to get ready, adding an extra level of convenience to the entire experience.

So many of our guests commented that it was the best wedding they had ever been to! We couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue, and we highly recommend Montrose House to anyone looking for a seamless, beautiful wedding experience.

We had our wedding at Montrose House in January 2024, and it was a magical day! The property is serene and is perfect for anyone wanting to get married in a country estate.

From the beginning Daniela and her team were very professional and communication was always timely whether over emails, text messages or phone calls. We had access to a wedding organisation website, personalised run-sheet and seating charts which helped us in choosing the right local vendors and a very smooth running of the day. Daniela and her team were also very accomodating about specific requirements for our Hindu ceremony.

Overall we had the most amazing day and everything flowed seamlessly- thanks Daniela and the Montrose House team!

We held our Nov-24 wedding at Montrose House and couldn’t have been happier with the support from Daniela and the whole team. Montrose House stood out immediately from other venues for its combination of: the classy heritage architecture and gardens; being a ‘complete package’ wedding venue; and, the experience of Daniela and the rest of the staff in wedding planning and execution. In the many months leading up to the wedding, we always felt like we had a full-time wedding planner available to recommend us other vendors, answer any questions and help us manage any hiccups, and the online platform and FAQs were exceptional. We also loved the ‘tasting day’ we did at the venue a few months before the wedding to help us choose our food and beverage menu. The venue was immaculate on the day, with all of our guests praising the attentiveness and helpfulness of the staff, the incredible food, and the styling of our outdoor ceremony, and reception. We couldn’t be happier with our wedding venue, and would highly recommend Montrose House to any couples looking for their dream wedding.

Absolutely love working at Montrose House. Might be biased as I also got married here.
Food is always 5 star, Daniela and her team are amazing and super helpful, as both a customer and a vendor.
The decor and setting is so unique and beautiful it really sets the scene for a beautiful Southern Highlands wedding!

I was at Montrose House for my brothers wedding this weekend past 5/3/22. What an amazing estate! Beautiful wedding photography is a breeze here. From the moment we arrived the day before to familiarise ourselves with the venue the staff were warm, inviting and friendly. The lady who was coordinating was very helpful with her guidance and reassuring in the planning of the event. Being onsite all day in the lead up meant it was relaxing for the bride-to-be with somewhere to 'chill out' with her bridesmaids and a parlour for hair and makeup. Beside the reception room there is the new addition/wet weather option undercover but open on one side. It also allowed people to step out during the reception.
Overall a wonderful option just shy of 1.5hrs south of Sydney for a wedding.
Highly recommend!

I cannot imagine getting married anywhere else, Montrose House and Daniela are incredible. Let's start with the venue. When my husband and I first saw Montrose House, we had all but booked another venue. Montrose House was the 6th venue that we visited and on our way there we were questioning whether or not it was worth going to have a look . We then drove up the driveway to Montrose House and were blown away. The ceremony space is absolute magic, with grand old pine trees, stunning gardens, beautiful antique french doors and Montrose House (built in 1861) set in the background. It is hard to describe how beatiful this area is. You then progress onto the lawn, with incredible willow trees and an antique greenhouse used as the garden bar, the (newly built) open barn which is perfect for cocktail hour and couples as a great back up in the event of wet weather, and finally the reception hall with long tables, fireplace and basket chandelier. So many of our guests commented on how stunning the venue was! PLUS - bonus there is also the Parlour and Mews cottage on site which was not only great to get ready/ sleep in pre and post wedding but was also the perfect area for a babysitter to hide out in if you have any tiny babies that need to be close to their Mums. Then there is Daniela who is one of those rare people you meet in your life, who has such an incredible energy, that whenever you meet with her or speak on the phone with her, you are left feeling completely at ease and even more excited about your wedding. I would be lying if I said that Daniela herself was not another reason that we chose Montrose House. I have waffled on but the main message to take away is that if you book Montrose House, you will have the most wonderful experience from start to finish. Thank you Daniela, and the whole Montrose House team for making our day incredible.
