There is something wonderfully romantic about getting married in a Victorian mansion overlooking Victoria's Inner Harbour.
Pendray Inn & Tea House began as the family home of William and Amelia Pendray, who moved into the completed Queen Anne-style mansion in 1897. More than a century later, its historic rooms, gardens and unmistakable character create an intimate setting for weddings and celebrations.
Couples can choose from indoor spaces including the elegant Drawing Room and Pendray Tea House, or take the ceremony outside into the gardens and amphitheatre during Victoria's warmer months.
That gives the day a beautiful sense of movement.
Vows can happen surrounded by greenery before guests step inside for food, conversation and celebration among the home's period details. The Inn's planning and catering teams can also help bring the different pieces of the day together.
And outside the doors is Victoria itself.
The Inner Harbour is only moments away, along with some of the city's best-known landmarks, giving couples plenty of opportunities to step out for photographs before returning to the celebration.
Accommodation at the Inn means the wedding can linger a little longer too, with the historic atmosphere continuing even after the final guests have said goodnight.
For couples who love gardens, heritage architecture and weddings that feel intimate rather than enormous, Pendray Inn & Tea House offers something beautifully timeless.
A Victorian home.
A garden ceremony.
