Wedding Reception Venues in Southern Barossa

Choosing the Right Wedding Reception Venue

Southern Barossa splits neatly for weddings. Lyndoch holds three catered venues for receptions of roughly 100 to 150, Rowland Flat has a boutique winery for about 50, and Altona offers a dry-hire estate that a couple takes over for the weekend.

Comparing the three wedding localities:

Lyndoch, for a ceremony and reception on one estate: 1837 Barossa has a marble gazebo and a covered plaza for 150.
Lyndoch, for a restaurant reception: Chateau Yaldara Riverside Restaurant takes up to 100, and The Lord Lyndoch seats 110 across its ground floor.
Rowland Flat, for a small wedding: St Hugo holds the ceremony in its glory-vine Courtyard, with pricing from $2,000 minimum spend.
Altona, for a weekend-long celebration: Rosado gives the couple the whole venue for 72 hours with on-site accommodation.
Rosado books one wedding each weekend and is dry hire, while the other four cater in-house.
