Melbourne’s Premier Wedding Venue

Skye was always a pleasure to talk to and was very helpful trying to make the venue work for what we needed. I was extremely happy with the service Skye provided.

Teearn was very helpful and informative through the process!

Taylor was very warm, welcoming and affable from the very moment we walked through the doors for our first meeting at Leonda with her. She was always diligent in responding to our emails, answering questions we had and negotiating specific requests. If I called her and chose not to leave a message, she would still return my call shortly after. We appreciate all her time and effort and continue to look forward to working with the Leonda team. Immediate family members and friends have also married at Leonda and have described the service and experience as exceptional! We are very grateful to Taylor and we wish her all the very best!

Fiona is ridiculously on top of things, so attentive, down to earth, not pushy and receptive to comments and ideas. She’s absolutely in the right job!

Melanie has great customer service, she really goes above and beyond to help.
Found her very contactable and quick to respond to any query we had. She made our selection process was quite easy with her knowledge, accessibility, suggestions/considerations and general personality. With Mel, its been a great introduction to Leonda which gives me confidence that the rest of our Leonda planning and execution of our wedding will follow a similar trend. Would happily recommend any of my friends to enquire with Mel regarding their own event

What is there not to like about Melanie?She was super friendly, welcomed us with warm smile, walked us around the venues (both fenix and leonda), very attentive to our needs, and was also very understanding to what we wanted.At the end of the day, while we went with another venue, it is not a reflection of the top notch service Melanie gave us. It was purely due to convenience of the other venue.Melanie, thank you for your warm welcome and keep doing what you’re doing 🙂

Melanie was kind, friendly and passionate in the delivery of her service right from the get go. Part of the reason we booked to have our wedding at Leonda was because of how lovely and enthusiastic she was.

Mel took the time to sit with us and asked us all our dreams for the wedding. She was so lovely and her personality was part of the reason we chose Leonda.

Always responded quickly and enthusiastically regardless of time she was contacted or how many times. Amazing person to have represent your company.

Very lovely and personable. Communication was amazing, not pushy, felt she had a genuine care. Unfortunately as amazing as the venue was, not in our price range. Would love if teearn was the events manager at our venue :cry

She is very responsive to communications and questions. It’s an absolute pleasure to deal with her and Leonda by the Yarra during this wedding planning journey and we are looking forward to what’s to come next!Celeste and Nick

From start to finish, Teearn was lovely to deal with and was always getting back to us quickly.
From the moment we contacted the Leonda, Teearn was prompt and enthusiastic in her correspondence. She was professional in upholding commitments, such as follow up emails. On the day of inspection, she warm and hospitable. My partner and I visited 8 venues over 2 days and we both agreed that Teearn was the most outstanding host.
Get very responsive and informative

Teearn was extremely attentive, responsive and friendly. Out of all wedding venues we had emailed and contacted I felt that Teearn was the best. She made me feel excited to come and see what you had to offer. Her customer service was outstanding and I would highly recommend (and we haven’t even had the wedding yet lol). When we came and viewed the venue she gave us all information we needed to know and answered all questions. She was great

Teearn was amazing! The venue just didn’t suit our numbers because of the minimum spend- but would have definitely booked because she was so helpful and kind. Best coordinator to work with for sure.

She was very welcoming as soon as we entered the reception, and always went out of her way to answer any questions we had.

Leonda by the Yarra is the best wedding venue. In the time that we have been dealing with the team nothing was too hard or too much trouble. The day went off like clock work and everything was perfect. Our wedding Coordinator Jemma Halls was a absolute pleasure to deal with. Will have no hesitation in recommending Leonda to any bride.

Leonda by the Yarra is a stunning venue. Nothing was too hard or painful when planning the finer details of our wedding with Jemma. She was totally accommodating to all of our requests and the night ran smoothly with Tayla there to help us. Highly recommend this venue. Such professionalism shown by all the staff and a beautiful high quality venue. The food is also amazing!

Leonda is hands down the most beautiful reception I have ever been to. So when we set a date for our wedding, I knew exactly where I wanted to get married! Kylie was our wedding planner, she was awesome, very very helpful. We had a big wedding in the ballroom and everything was set up and presented absolutely perfectly. Leonda’s time management is spot on. They made sure everything ran smoothly and as it was supposed to. The food was also very delicious with lots of yummy options to choose from, my favourite.. the Mushroom Gnocchi! I am yet to visit Leonda and thank everybody for their amazing service.

Beautiful venue! We were in the larger room and it’s very stunning with the big mirror wall. We held our ceremony in the adjacent bar which was also stunning. The Leonda staff are very professional and efficient. Very helpful and always happy to answer any questions!

We had our reception at the Ballroom at Leonda. Tom was the Operations Manager for our wedding and he was amazing, going above and beyond to make sure we had a great night – which we did! All of our guests mentioned how great the food and service was as well. Given it was a 43 degree day it cannot have been easy for the staff so thanks to everyone who was working the night of our wedding! We will recommend Leonda to everyone for their special day also 🙂

We had our ceremony in the Garden Room at Leona By the Yarra. The staff were friendly and so proffessional! They ensured our night ran smoothly and to schedule. They even gave me some bandaids for my battered feet. The food is incredible, its up there with the best food I’ve ever been served at a wedding. It’s right on the Yarra which is lovely and at night they uplight all the tress which just looks beautiful. No regrets having my wedding there.

The staff at Leonda by the Yarra were outstanding from the first time we saw the venue, right up until our reception. The organisation of our reception was simple, efficient and clear and fun thanks to their level of dedication and their experience in the industry. Since our wedding we have had many guests comment on the quality of the food (AMAZING!) and the wonderful and attentive service given to each table on the night. Big shout out to our Wedding Co-ordinator Jemma Halls for all of her work in the lead up, and to Tom who managed our reception on the night. Thanks so much for your hard work guys! Leonda by the Yarra exude elegance, class, and quality, and are the best choice in Melbourne wedding venues!

Leonda was fantastic on the big day. The event staff were all very professional and proactive. Venue looked great and food quality was outstanding! Pre-event coordination was could have been more active/facilitative. Overall, would recommend as wedding venue.

We loved our wedding reception at Leonda by the Yarra, the venue, the staff everything was perfect! The food is amazing and service is the best we have seen at a wedding yet. Highly recommend Leonda by the Yarra

WORDS cannot describe how happy I was we booked this reception. By far the best staff, food and atmosphere! Leonda helped make our night what it was – absolutely wonderful! Every staff member was an absolute joy! Can’t recommend this reception more highly! Thanks you, thank you, thank you!
