WooHoo, we finally decided on the Watermark restaurant as the reception venue for our wedding. Watermark came up as an option after talking about potential venue locations with my ex-colleague, Caroline, over lunch one day late last year. Thank you Mossy!
Watermark is located right on Balmoral Beach with a jetty and some boats docked in the nearby waters. We love it because it is enclosed by floor-to-ceiling windows, with uninterrupted views of the beach - absolutely gorgeous. It’s being renovated in June (which I suppose in some ways is a little bit of a gamble on our part, for all we know, they could potentially turn the venue into something ultra modern, which is not the ambience we’d like for our wedding), but….. we were assured that the romantic and cosy atmosphere of the restaurant will be retained - let’s hope so!
Jenni, the events coordinator at the Watermark restaurant is also very lovely and helpful and we look forward to working with her!
TIP for future husband/wife-to-be’s: We also like The Wharf Restaurant as a reception venue. It has a really great wedding package with very reasonable meal/beverage inclusions and the view is absolutely stunning - again, it has the floor-to-ceiling windows we adore. However, due to its commitment to the Sydney Theatre Company, availabilities are few and far between but check it out, it may just be the perfect venue for you and your partner.
