Step into history at Lords Estate by choosing our 1880's Heritage listed, private chapel and residence for your wedding ceremony. The historic St Andrews Church and vicarage, surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens, is now privately owned and run as a dedicated wedding venue, providing the perfect backdrop for a day you will always treasure. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, Lords Estate has packages and options that cater to all your needs.
Claire, the owner and manager of Lords Estate, and her family have lovingly restored the chapel and vicarage with one thought in mind, that you and your guests have the best possible day. During the chapel renovations she installed discrete, state-of-the-art audio visual and lighting equipment to make every word clear, every photo beautifully lit, and every song amazing. Wanting to look after her grooms while they wait nervously for their brides, Claire has even furnished the Vicarage with a dedicated whisky room, in addition to the dining and drawing rooms. Now your groomsmen can recline in antique leather as they make their final preparations, often with a side order of bacon and egg rolls form our caterers.
In 2024 Claire worked closely with heritage and landscape architects to complete an ambitious landscaping project that complements the historic buildings with beautiful new spaces for mingling and photography. These include a reclaimed brick dress circle in front of the chapel for even more group photo options, traditional hedging, a tree lined drive, a large cocktail terrace and upgraded garden lighting.
At Lords Estate, we pride ourselves on exceptional service, with dedicated staff assisting in every detail to create a seamless and memorable experience. With ample parking and pet-friendly policies, we welcome you to celebrate love in our stunning heritage venue.
Create lasting memories at Lords Estate – the perfect setting to make your own history together.

Our wedding at Lords Estate, under the expert guidance of Claire, was nothing short of magical. From the moment we set foot on the grounds, we knew we had stumbled upon a hidden gem in the city. Lords Estate exudes timeless elegance with its charming chapel, picturesque rose garden, and enchanting fountain, providing the perfect backdrop for our special day.
Claire, the mastermind behind this idyllic venue, is an absolute gem herself. Her passion for her craft shines through in every detail of Lords Estate. As an organizer, Claire's expertise is unparalleled. She seamlessly coordinated every aspect of our wedding, from arranging the catering to ensuring that every corner of the estate was immaculately presented.
The highlight of our wedding day was undoubtedly the exquisite lunch Claire orchestrated in the beautifully adorned dining room. The attention to detail was astounding, and the culinary delights served left all our guests in awe.
Beyond her organizational prowess, Claire's warmth and dedication made us feel truly valued as clients. She went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and preferences, ensuring that our wedding day was everything we had dreamed of and more.

I'm a wedding photographer from Dreams Photography and had the recent pleasure to photograph a wedding at Lord's Estate. The venue alone is stunning with options and locations unsurpassed in Sydney. Add to that the incredible staff and venue coordinators it's a "do not miss" location. I can't wait to post some images from this amazing wedding venue. JA

We are Gel and Mae, from Queensland. From the bottom of our hearts, we would like to thank Claire and her team at the Lord's Estate Chapel for making our wedding beautiful, stunning and amazing, just how we prayed for. If you are like us who didn't know where to start in your wedding planning, give her a call now. Claire was our main man in building our dream wedding, she recommended credible and the best suppliers who offered us professional and superb services as well. Claire was very kind that we can approach her anytime. Claire, thank you for always listening and making us feel that everything is under control. Lord's Estate is a non-denominational heritage chapel which was perfect for our intimate wedding! We had both the ceremony and reception here and every angle was pisturesque, our photographers had fun taking shots because of the magnificent location. We fell in love with the place the first time we saw it! The service was amazing as well, Claire and her team especially Ana, helped us with the music, waitstaff services, and they all made sure that we had a smooth, relaxed big day where we don't have to worry about anything but just be in the moment! Claire and her family are beautiful people. We will be forever grateful to them and the Lord's Estate Chapel is a special part of our love story.

We loved holding our Fresh Flows events at the beautiful Lord's Estate. It was just the perfect setting and ambience.
- Claire & Pete are very friendly. They are aware of the history of the building & it comes across when they take you around their space. They have great pride in owning the property.
- The chapel is quite enchanting & the lighting they’ve chosen accentuates the wonderful heritage it holds, especially with the stained glass windows, high wood-beamed ceilings & lime-washed walls.
- We have recommended this place to many of our family & friends. So much so, a friend held her wedding there last year! Different event but still so perfect. We highly recommend!
