I recently photographed Aimee & Gary’s beautiful wedding at Peterson House. It’s such a classic Hunter Valley location for a reason. The day was perfect, right down to the stunning floral arrangements by House of Hydrangeas.

Why Peterson House is a Classic Hunter Valley Venue

You can't talk about Hunter Valley weddings without mentioning Peterson House. It’s famous for that beautiful sandstone chapel sitting right among the vineyards. It’s a stunning backdrop for a ceremony. It's right in the heart of Pokolbin so it's easy for guests to get to.

Peterson House Wedding Photo Locations

For a photographer, this place is a gift. You get so much variety in one spot. We don't have to waste time driving to different locations.

• The Chapel - The sandstone and big windows look amazing in photos. We got some beautiful shots of A & G just outside the chapel doors.
• The Vineyards - It's the Hunter Valley so you need vineyard photos. Peterson House has rows and rows of them. They are perfect for those sunset shots.
• The Main Building - The restaurant and cellar door have a great rustic and elegant feel. The long verandah is also perfect for relaxed portraits.
• The Marquee - The long marquee makes for some lovely reception shots

Your Ceremony and Reception in One Place

One of the best things about Peterson House is that you can have your whole day here. The ceremony and reception are on the same property.

Guests can go from the chapel to the reception at Restaurant Cuvée or the on-site marquee. It makes the day flow so easily. And of course, the famous Peterson House sparkling wine is right there.

Planning Your Peterson House Wedding?

If you're planning your own Peterson House wedding, you'll want a Hunter Valley wedding photographer who knows these grounds well. Knowing where the sun will set and how to use the light around the chapel is key.

Aimee & Gary’s wedding was a beautiful day. If you’re getting married at Peterson House and like this style, I'd love to chat.
