Settings

Gardens, bush and river.

Leafy gardens

Beecroft to Cherrybrook

Established gardens suit ceremonies and long lunches, with shade from mature trees.

Bushland

Around Berowra

Bush settings bring natural beauty and uneven ground, so plan flooring and paths.

The Hawkesbury

Brooklyn and Berowra Waters

Riverside gatherings trade on the water view, with access that needs planning.

Seasons

Hornsby Shire through the year.

  1. Summer

    Warm and humid, with storms. Keep a covered option and check fire ratings.

  2. Autumn

    Mild, settled weather under the trees. A favourite time for garden events.

  3. Winter

    Cool, damp evenings in the bush. Heaters and enclosed marquees help.

  4. Spring

    Flowering gardens and the start of the fire season. Plan flames carefully.

Local planning

Slopes, trees and fire season.

  1. Steep access

    Many homes have steep or winding driveways. Share photos so the right vehicle and crew size are sent.

  2. Bushfire season

    Bushland blocks face tighter rules on fire danger days. Swap real candles for LED ones if the rating is high.

  3. Rural north

    Properties around Galston and Arcadia can be a long way from mains power at the event spot. Include power needs in the brief.

  4. Waterfront access

    Brooklyn and Berowra Waters sit on the river, where access can be limited. Ask how pieces will reach a waterside setting.
