Reviews for Metropolis Events
Jenny Pho
The best wedding/events venue in Melbourne! We had the most amazing experience - I couldn't recommend more. The venue is absolutely stunning; the pictures say it all. Our wedding planner, Natasha, was incredible! We couldn't have planned this wedding without her. Natasha and the entire team were so accommodating, thoughtful and attentive. They went above and beyond at every point along the journey in helping us have the wedding of our dreams. From the moment we first viewed the venue, to the various stages of planning and the actual wedding itself - the team shared in our excitement and did everything they could to make the whole experience so special. Metropolis is the best!

Metropolis is undoubtedly one of the most stunning venues in Melbourne, and it’s hard not to have an unforgettable night here. Weddings these days can cost a fair bit, so be prepared to spend, but in return, you’ll have a celebration that not only you’ll cherish forever, but that will leave your guests talking about it for a long time. My experience with Metropolis started off a little rocky, as they were undergoing a restructure at the time. I was getting different information from various parts of the team, and due to a busy period, responses were a bit slower than expected. However, in the end, they came through and honoured everything they had promised. My only feedback would be around communication and clarity—there were a few instances where we were given conflicting information or told different things by different people. We were fortunate to have Natasha as our Event Coordinator. She was fantastic, handling all our requests and ensuring everything ran smoothly. Despite the stress that comes with coordinating such a big event, Natasha was easy to work with and a pleasure to deal with. We really appreciated her efforts in bringing everything together. But the real standout of the night was the team at Metropolis. They truly made the event seamless, and I can honestly say the night wouldn’t have been the same without their exceptional service. Honestly they pushed my review from 4 stars to 5 stars. Alex, the Beverage Manager, was an absolute legend. He’s one of the nicest guys you’ll meet, and he and his team provided first-class service all night long. They were respectful and attentive to every guest, and their professionalism made a big impression. Tess, the Bridal Attendant, was lovely and made sure that everything the bridal party needed was taken care of. There was a small hiccup on the day, but Tess went above and beyond to make sure it was sorted quickly. From the moment we arrived, she was there for us, providing exceptional service. Lyn , the Venue Manager, also did an outstanding job on the night. She kept everything running smoothly, ensuring that everything went off without a hitch. Overall, Metropolis provided a truly memorable experience, and while there were a few communication bumps early on, the service and attention to detail on the day more than made up for it. Highly recommend!

We recently had our wedding reception at Metropolis, and we can't thank Natasha Rowe, our event planner, and the entire team enough for their exceptional work. From start to finish, the service was flawless. The team ensured that my husband and all of our guests were comfortable and well taken care of throughout the night. Natasha's professionalism and clear communication made the planning process completely stress-free. She was always prompt with her responses and provided fantastic suggestions that helped the evening flow seamlessly. A special mention to Toff Rush from Technical Events at Metropolis—his communication was outstanding. He understood exactly what was important to us, and the sound and lighting were perfect, adding that extra touch to our special night. The food was incredible, and our guests couldn't stop raving about it. A huge thank you to the wait staff, especially those attending to the bridal party table. They were so accommodating, professional, and attentive, always making sure we had enough drinks and everything we needed. We highly recommend Metropolis Events to any couple searching for a wedding venue!

We recently had the pleasure of having our wedding at Metropolis, and we can't speak highly enough about the experience. The venue itself is stunning, offering a blend of elegance and modernity that made our event truly memorable. What truly stood out, however, was the exceptional service provided by Natasha, our liaison. She was incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process, answering every question promptly and ensuring that all our needs were met. Her attention to detail and dedication made everything run smoothly and allowed us to focus on enjoying the event. I highly recommend Metropolis for anyone looking for a top-notch venue with outstanding support. The view alone was breathtaking!!
