The Forrester Ceremony Experience

For nearly a century, this remarkable building has stood as one of Sydney’s hidden gems. Now, we’re opening our doors in a new way.

​

Exchange your vows beneath soaring ceilings and elegant chandeliers. Wander through the historic floor to ceiling stone walls of the Kastle and the Krypt for unforgettable portraits. Celebrate your first look and first moments as newlyweds throughout our beautiful Estate Grounds.

​

Three distinctive spaces. One unforgettable beginning. 

​

The Forrester Ceremony Experience is designed for intimate weddings for groups up to 50 who want the freedom to create a wedding that reflects their OWN vision. Not every couple wants an all-inclusive experience.  This offers couples something different. ​With this experience, you bring the vendors you love:

​

 - Your favourite photographer.
-  Your preferred Justice of the Peace or officiant.
-  Your florist.
-  Your musician.
-  Your wedding team.

​

We’ll prepare the venue, beautifully style the space, handle the setup and teardown, and welcome your chosen professionals.

​

For 90 minutes, one of Cape Breton’s most distinctive heritage venues is exclusively yours. With the Forrester Ceremony Experience, you’ll enjoy exclusive access to three remarkable settings:

✨ The Upper Level Kastle Ceremony Space
✨ The Historic Lower Level Krypt
✨ The Estate Grounds

​
