Best Sydney Wedding Locations Part Two: Centennial Park

To be a wedding photographer based in Sydney is truly a privilege, with so many beautiful locations to bring couples for their portraits. One of my favourite places of all is Centennial Park. Every time I visit the park I find something new and beautiful, whatever the season.
As well as many lovely spots for portraits Centennial also has some beautiful venues to host your wedding ceremony and reception, such as Centennial Homestead and the Superintendents Residence, each with their own unique vibe.
Each area of the park has a special character, from the grove of paperbark trees to exquisite woodlands, from ponds and bridges, to fig trees (full of bats!) and wild grasslands.
Centennial is a wonderful place to hold your wedding ceremony as the beauty of the park itself really needs no adornment or decoration but for an arbour and chairs.
In this blog post I’ll share some of the weddings I’ve photographed at Centennial Park and some of the beautiful portraits I’ve taken with couples there.
Centennial Park is rich in birdlife, you never know who will stop to pose for the camera.
Tara and AJ held their wedding ceremony and reception at the Superintendent’s Residence in Centennial Park. The couple wanted an easy going garden vibe and you can see how the location suited them perfectly. The space is wonderful for wedding photography, with lots of room to work with and capture different angles, helping to tell a more engaging story.

Jasmine and Chris got ready at the Ranger’s Residence in Centennial Park. Their beautiful ceremony was held at Saint Mary Immaculate Church in Waverley. The couple held their reception at Centennial Homestead so we took an hour to shoot portraits with their awesome bridal party before the party got started.
