June 2023

NGA was an incredible venue - situated by the lake, it is stunning, and you can get some amazing photos there. The venue took care of everything so we did not have to stress on the day, which we appreciated. The events coordinator, Jaimi, was fantastic throughout the process and helped us every step of the way. She really brought our vision to life, and everything turned out just as we pictured. In terms of reception, we had ours in Gandel Hall and guests commented on how great the food was. If you're looking for a beautiful venue that takes a lot of stress out of wedding planning, then you really can't go wrong with the NGA. Would highly recommend.

We held both our ceremony and reception at the National Gallery. It was the perfect backdrop, such a gorgeous venue! The staff took excellent care of us - they were very quick to respond to emails and to propose solutions for anything that came up. The event ran seamlessly thanks to the team and the food was absolutely delicious.

Bree and her team could not be faulted, they are beyond amazing and we couldn't thank them enough for making our night perfect. From the first meetings to the set and the flow of the night Bree and the team were professional, organised and knowledgable. You definitely want Bree on your team.

February 2020

We had our wedding reception at the NGA. It’s a beautiful venue and our experience was just wonderful with Jasmyn and Natasha who coordinated the event for us. Jasmyn was our main contact following Natasha going on leave. The handover was smooth and Jasmyn took care of everything so well and so patiently from providing us with multiple revisions of the floor plan for Gandel Hall to coordinating with the vendors on the evening. We truly went into our reception stress free knowing everything was being looked after by a great team. And the food was just delicious with some great menus to choose from and customise. A wonderful venue choice for any special occasion.

July 2019

Jasmyn, Natasha, Haresh, and the wonderful events team at the NGA made the lead-up and day of our wedding in April 2019 perfect. The considered, comprehensive, and transparent consultation, communication, and planning support (including engaging with the other vendors) from early in the process, presentation of the already stunning venue, catering package, and attention to detail overall was amazing, with the high quality of service emphasised by many of our guests for good reason. The NGA made everything easy, looked after us, and can’t be recommended by us enough as an amazing wedding venue.
