Intro to Ottimo House Sydney
The historic Denham Court Estate is one of Sydney’s most beautiful and natural regions, which is why it’s the perfect location for couples planning a country escape. Located just 40 minutes from the CBD, this estate is home to Ottimo House, a light-filled venue that blends lush greenery with country architecture. With a stunning photography backdrop in every direction, Ottimo House is ideal for dreamy weddings immersed in the wilderness.
The Scene at Ottimo House Sydney
As you leave the Sydney CBD in your rearview mirror, say goodbye to the city lights and cramped streets and hello to wide open spaces and country air. Sitting on 500 acres of untouched countryside is Ottimo House, your destination and the setting of the best day of your life. Set on the historic manicured gardens of Denham Court Estate, Ottimo House is shadowed by towering eucalyptus trees and rolling hills. This peaceful venue is perfect for couples seeking an exclusive and serene atmosphere.
Meandering paths and expansive lawns wrap around the impressive building, the architecture composed of rustic and modern elements. There are three grand rooms within the house, and each strikes a different tone. Depending on the theme of your wedding, you’ll discover a room to suit your needs. The Mahogany Room invites the outside in, with exposed timber beams and floors, hanging logs, and an elevated bridal table. A balance is struck with three large modern chandeliers, ceiling drapes, and a white chiffon bridal table backdrop.
Boasting a more industrial rustic aesthetic is the Rosewood Room. This space also showcases exposed timber beams, but instead of floorboards, you’ll discover burnished concrete floors that introduce a chic feel. The four crystal chandeliers overhead emphasise this step towards modern glamour. The Rosewood Room also boasts an arrival area where Ottimo House staff can serve your guests drinks before the ceremony begins.
The Marquee looks like it’s been plucked right from a wedding Pinterest board. This all-white space features a peaked ceiling, a unique glass wall, and plenty of natural light. Boasting a garden-party aesthetic, the Marquee allows guests to move through to an outdoor decking to enjoy drinks and canapes in the country air.
As you head into the reception, the Ottimo House staff begin the dinner service. An executive chef creates personalised menus that reflect your choices and desires. Whether that’s adhering to culturally-specific dishes or excluding specific allergens, your wedding day dining experience will feature generous serving sizes and perfectly matched beverages.
Ottimo House Sydney Wedding Ceremonies
You have your choice of ceremony spaces at Ottimo House, each capitalising on a slice of the estate’s grand outdoor areas. The Gazebo Lawn looks elegant when dressed with white folding chairs, florals draped from the gazebo roof, and a long white aisle runner cutting across the lush green grass. The Scenic Garden feels more relaxed and incorporates rustic elements, your arbour standing before the small lake. The Amphitheatre is an enclosed area with timber bench seats and a great country aesthetic.
