Tatra Receptions

Make your wedding an unforgettable weekend getaway with complimentary accommodation for the wedding couple, as well as 28 onsite accommodation suites available, each sleeping between two and eight guests. Despite being a mere hour away from the hustle and bustle of Melbourne CBD, you’ll find Tatra Receptions to be a peaceful forest escape with spectacular views of the Dandenong Ranges. 

Choose from three equally idyllic ceremony locations: the rustic-chic timber chapel, garden gazebo, or wrought iron cupola framed by lush lawns and forest greenery. After exploring the grounds and discovering countless incredible photo opportunities, celebrate in Tatra Receptions’ spacious, chandelier-lit ballroom.  

With your personal wedding coordinator guiding your vendors, and leading Tatra Receptions’ skilled waitstaff, there is little left for you to do except revel in the excitement of your wedding day. Your guests will delight in the gourmet three-course meal prepared with the personalisation options of your choosing, plus the five-hour premium beverage featuring Yarra Valley wines. 

“The grounds are stunning! Great facilities, comfy accommodation, delicious food, and the staff were so friendly. Everyone really went above and beyond to accommodate the wedding party and guests. I cannot recommend Tatra Receptions highly enough.” – Aspen M.
