Oatlands Estate is the venue long known as Oatlands House, a heritage Georgian mansion on Bettington Road at Oatlands, minutes from Parramatta. Lieutenant Percy Simpson built the original house in the 1830s; James Brindley Bettington bought it in 1840 and added the two-storey wings, and the family held it until 1926. It became a reception centre in 1958, and the Navarra family bought it in 2012. The grounds hold a rose garden, a vineyard, a sandstone water feature, a gazebo and two grand ballrooms.
We photographed a wedding here in 2019 and have filmed three more since, all under the venue’s earlier name, Oatlands House. The house’s curved front, columns and wraparound verandah carry the formal frames; the garden paths, the vineyard and the water feature take the couple away from the crowd without leaving the property.
