Reviews for Sophia
The Small Things Co
Sophia Prahran Arcade is a dream location for weddings. As a wedding stylist, it’s always inspiring to work in such a character-filled and versatile space. What makes the experience even better is the incredible team behind the venue. The staff at Sophia are warm, professional, and genuinely passionate about what they do. From the very first planning stages through to event day, they are organised, responsive, and collaborative, always going above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly. They understand the demands of wedding days and are a true pleasure to work alongside, making our job as stylists so much easier. It’s always a seamless, supportive experience, and one we genuinely look forward to every time. We absolutely love working at Sophia and couldn’t recommend the venue, and the team, more highly to couples and fellow creatives alike.

I cannot praise and recommend Sophia at The Prahran Arcade and Atlantic Group staff highly enough. We recently had our wedding reception at Sophia and it was undoubtedly the best night of our lives. The food was absolutely impeccable (so often wedding food is so basic, this was anything BUT basic...still dreaming about the yellow fin tuna entree), and the service was brilliant. No one ever had an empty glass, the gimlets were flowing, and everyone was so kind, helpful, warm and welcoming. I specifically want to leave praise for our Events Manager Emma Jolly who made it impossible for me to feel stressed. She put me at complete ease responding to my 1 million emails, was so attentive and organised, and made our day so much more incredibly special. She even left a beautiful bottle of champagne for us to take at the end of the night. I could not recommend her more, she was a dream. I wish we could do it all over again :(

We were so fortunate to have our wedding reception at Sophia at The Prahran Arcade. It is a stunning venue and the whole Atlantic Group team were wonderful to deal with. A special shout out to Cigdem, Emma and Kelsie who handled all our questions and stepped us through the details throughout the process! The food and drinks were amazing and capped off the best night of our lives!

We were lucky enough to have our wedding at Sophia at The Prahran Arcade. The attention to the detail from the team is second to none. Mel was the perfect liaison between us and the venue team and dealt with our hundreds of questions with such a friendly and comforting attitude. All of our guests were stunned by the venue and we have received countless comments on how the evening ran. Popi on the night was amazing and we are so grateful for her help! She made us feel so well looked after. Thank you team!
