“Our wedding ceremony was simply stunning. The grounds of Narryna provided an intimate atmosphere and yet very comfortably accommodated our rather large party of guests, photographers and musicians.

Narryna offers the convenience of an inner city venue, coupled with a tranquility, class and elegance that made our wedding ceremony just so beautiful and memorable”.
