Athol Hall in Mosman NSW 2088, open March–December.

We had our wedding at Athol Hall in February and could not have asked for a more perfect venue. From the moment we first visited, we knew it was the one for us. Athol Hall truly is a hidden gem. We held our ceremony on the lawn and our reception inside the Hall, and it was amazing from start to finish. The setting is stunning and created exactly the atmosphere we were hoping for, particularly with the amazing view of the city and harbour. During the planning process, we felt well supported throughout, and as we got closer to the wedding date and finalised the many small details, Lauren and the Athol Hall team were always proactive in reaching out whenever clarification was needed. Everything was handled professionally and exactly as expected. On the night itself, Bish and the team were fantastic and everything ran smoothly. Our guests absolutely loved the venue and we received so many glowing comments about it. We would love to attend future functions at Athol Hall and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stunning wedding or event venue.
