Engagement Party Blue Mountains

An engagement party in the Mountains is often a preview of the wedding, with the couple testing a venue, a view or a vibe. It also gives both families a relaxed first meeting before the big day, often over a weekend when out-of-town guests can stay.

Options couples tend to look at:

• A clifftop terrace near the Three Sisters for cocktail parties of up to 300
• A Blackheath hotel bar with fireplaces, an oval bar and a covered terrace for up to 250 standing
• A Blackheath garden estate where the marquee sits beside a private lake, or a smaller homestead room with a fire courtyard
• A Springwood club with grazing stations from $35 per person for a simpler gathering
• A DJ from $2,750 or a 360 booth from $900 for the evening
• Marquee and furniture hire from $195 for a party in a family garden

A vintage car from $715 makes a memorable arrival for the couple. More venues are on the venues page.
