Choosing the Right Wedding Reception Venue

Barton gives couples three quite different reception settings: a fine-dining restaurant on Lake Burley Griffin, a hotel ballroom on National Circuit and a club ballroom with silver service on the same street. Guest numbers run from about 20 at the Press Club up to 500 seated at Hotel Realm.

How the three Barton venues compare for a wedding:

  • The Boat House can host the ceremony on its lawns above the water, then a seated dinner or a cocktail garden party.
  • Its East End and West End rooms combined seat 140 to 160, with plated private dining menus from $118 per person.
  • Hotel Realm's National Ballroom seats 500 for a banquet dinner, with a terrace looking towards Parliament House.
  • The National Press Club of Australia seats up to 230 in its ballroom for a multi-course dinner and caters weddings from about 20.
