Choosing the Right Wedding Reception Venue

Baulkham Hills couples can go grand or intimate. Cropley House on Watkins Road is a 1920s house on five acres with chandeliered ballrooms, while Il Lago, the lakeside Italian place in Norwest run by one family since 2004, is the intimate alternative.

Comparing the two receptions:

  • Cropley House ballrooms: the Victoria and Elizabeth rooms each seat 250 at a banquet under crystal chandeliers.
  • Ceremony and reception in one place: vows can be said in Cropley's rose garden under its gazebo, or on a platform beneath the estate's oak, for 60 and 100 guests.
  • Il Lago for a smaller wedding: up to 80 guests with the whole restaurant reserved and a custom menu.
  • Il Lago's water: the dining room and alfresco terrace look straight over the lake.
  • Il Lago pricing: from $49 per person once the group reaches 12.

Cropley House suits a formal reception of close to 200 seated; Il Lago suits an intimate lunch or dinner with close family.
