Adelaide Hills Wedding Reception Venue at Inglewood Inn
Our lower-level Function Room blends the old with the new, giving you panoramic Adelaide Hills wedding reception views without losing the venue’s historic charm. Original stone walls from 1857 meet a modern glass extension that looks out across the gardens, elm trees, and Para River. By day, the view changes with the seasons; by night, the floodlit grounds and the warm glow of fairy lights create an inviting, atmospheric backdrop for your celebration.
Every wedding feels different here because the space adapts to your style — rustic and relaxed, modern industrial, or timelessly elegant. Whatever your vision, our team makes sure your reception feels unmistakably yours.

Sit-Down or Cocktail - Your Choice
Whether you’re planning a wedding reception in the Adelaide Hills for 100 seated guests or a relaxed cocktail celebration, our menus ensure no one leaves hungry.
Sit-down receptions
Begin with canapés on the lawns, followed by a three-course menu where guests can choose their dishes. Shared platters or plated service are both available, designed to match the vibe you’re after.
Cocktail receptions
Perfect for mingling and dancing, cocktail receptions feature substantial canapés and roaming plates so everyone is well-fed while keeping the atmosphere relaxed and social.
Style It Your Way
Couples love how flexible the Function Room is. With neutral tones, high ceilings, and a mix of heritage and modern finishes, it’s a backdrop that works for any look. Think long timber tables with greenery, soft draping and candles for a romantic glow, or bold florals and dramatic lighting for something more striking. Our events team works closely with you and your chosen suppliers to make sure every detail feels like “you.”
We work closely with trusted local creatives — check out our vendors we love for florists, stylists, and more.
