Amazing venue! Everything was so organised and seamless from start to finish. Ashley was an amazing event coordinator and was so easy to communicate with. She was so helpful and made it really easy for us to stay on track. Our event host Stella was also very lovely! Unfortunately I was sick on our wedding day but the team was super accomodating and even made me a couple of saltwater gargles 😂. The venue and ambience was stunning and speaks for itself + there were also great spots for pics! Thank you to everyone at Leonda for hosting the wedding of our dreams!!

The wedding reception was truly exceptional from start to finish! Our journey began with Zoe, who warmly showed us the venue and set the tone for what would be an unforgettable day. Maria's meticulous organisation beforehand ensured every detail was flawlessly executed. On the day, Chris and the attentive staff were phenomenal hosts, ensuring everything ran seamlessly. The menu tasting night was not only enjoyable but also instrumental in helping us select our perfect menu. The food surpassed all expectations with its delicious flavors. The garden room was absolutely stunning, intimate yet glamorous with its floor-to-ceiling glass and elegant garden views. The staff's dedication made the entire planning process effortless and stress-free. I wish we could relive it all over again – it truly was the perfect reception!

Leonda by the Yarra exceeded every expectation as our wedding venue. From the moment we began planning, their team (special mention to Alex our co-ordinator) was incredibly supportive, offering invaluable guidance that made the entire process smooth and stress-free. On the night, the service was truly exceptional—professional, attentive, and warm. We felt completely taken care of, and every detail was flawlessly executed. The beautiful riverside setting added a magical touch, and our guests took note of the incredible atmosphere. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect experience!

From the day my (now) husband and I walked into Leonda by the Yarra we knew this was going to be where we got married. We were looking for a small intimate space and the garden room looked to be the perfect size for our wedding. I made a simple online enquiry about the space and was warmly greeted by Melanie who was super enthusiastic about showing all Leonda had to offer. Melanie took great care in responding to the questions I had with regards to the Venue. On the first meeting we had, Melanie went through all the inclusions that Leonda had to offer, she really understood our culture and what we would value most on our wedding day. What stood out the most during our meeting was the offering of the Leonda's dedicated team. She was not wrong, our Wedding day coordinator Ashley Price went above and beyond with helping us get ready for the perfect wedding. There was no enquiry/request too big or small that Ashley would do her best to accommodate. Our guest felt immediately welcomed as they entered the space. The room was roaring with happy guest and loud conversations. The team took special care of the Bridal to make sure the day was seamless. One of the greatest days of our lives, thank you Leonda and Team :)

The best food and service in Melbourne! Don’t listen to anyone who’s had bad food here they’re obviously disgruntled people unhappy with their lives! Have attended many events here including our own wedding and have had the best food here for a single foot stepped wrong on service, food or water experience! Will make all your dreams come true and more! Have not had better comments on the food for our taste testing night and wedding night! Cooked eat steak to perfection 80+ steaks!!!
