October 2025

Our wedding has come and gone in the blink of an eye, but what remains are the unforgettable memories, our marriage, and our love for Leonards Hill Estate and El. If you are looking for a high-class wedding venue where you can create your dream day and receive unmatched support - don’t look any further! Our wedding planning journey came with every emotion, from indecisiveness to pure happiness, and El was there through it all. She wasn’t just the Venue Manager at Leonards Hill Estate - she became a friend. El was my biggest support. She was easy to talk to, reliable, flexible, open-minded, incredibly responsive, and always in our corner. Photos simply don’t do this venue justice. You need to stand at Leonards Hill Estate, breathe it in, and picture your day. Every time we visited, we knew „this is it, this is our venue.“ We are so grateful to El and her husband Keith for everything they did - big and small - to make our wedding truly ours. With El, it never felt like just a job to her or just a wedding. She was part of our wedding. She feels every wedding. She cares deeply, and you can see and feel it in everything she does. Not only do we love her - our guests did too. El gave her all to make everyone feel welcome. She checked in on me throughout the day, we laughed, we hugged, and her responsiveness and energy were next-level. El, Keith - we are so proud that Leonards Hill Estate was our venue of choice. Thank you for every message, every phone call, every hug, and every coffee. Leonards Hill Estate will forever be my number one recommended venue, and I hope from the bottom of my heart that it becomes yours too. Xx Mr&Mrs Nelson

Thank you so much for these beautiful words - they really mean everything to us! Having you both here at Leonards Hill Estate was such a privilege, and being part of your planning journey - through all the emotions and decisions - was honestly a highlight for me. You made it easy because you both knew what mattered to you, and seeing it all come together on the day was incredible. I'm so happy the venue felt right for you from those first visits. That feeling of just knowing - it's the best! And everything we did, big or small, was genuinely our pleasure because we could see how much it all meant to you both. Thank you for trusting us with your day, for all the chats, the laughs, and the hugs along the way. The team and I loved being part of it, and knowing your guests felt welcome too makes us so happy. Wishing you both all the happiness ahead, Sandy and Joel! With love, El & the LHE team x

THE BEST DAY EVER AT THE BEST VENUE! 👌 El, her husband, the bar staff and our vendors put together the most unforgettable wedding for us. My husband Kane and I were planning with El since the very first open day back in 2023! She has been so organised and professional from the get go! Her excitement and involvement in the lead up really helped settle any nerves preparing for our day. The accommodation was so lovely and it helped being on site, no worries of being too fashionably late! Our guests adored the natural surroundings and the 80 of them fit perfectly on the tables for reception too! I could write about our wedding all day! Thanks again and we can't wait to hopefully hold some other special occasions at Leonards Hill Estate in the future xxx The Murfetts (Rach & Kane)

Hello Rach and Kane! THE BEST DAY EVER - we are absolutely over the moon reading this! 🥰 Honestly, knowing you both had such an incredible day means everything to us. We've loved being part of your journey since that first open day in 2023, and seeing it all come together so perfectly has been such a joy. Thank you so much for your beautiful words and for trusting us with your special day. You two brought such amazing energy and love to the venue, and we're so grateful we got to be part of it all. We'd love nothing more than to see you back here for future celebrations! All our love and congratulations, El and the LHE Team x

We have an unbelievable wedding day at Leonard's Hill Estate. El and her team were very responsive and helpful. They really eased our stress and worry about the day. El and her team have created a beautiful venue that really suited the vibe we were hoping for, for our special day. We cannot recommend Leonard's Hill Estate enough

We're so glad to hear you guys had an amazing wedding day at Leonards Hill Estate! We are always trying our best to be super responsive and helpful, so it's great to know that it took some stress off your plate. We've put a lot of heart into making the venue beautiful, and hearing that it was exactly the vibe you were going for is just the best! Seriously, thanks a million for the awesome recommendation, Sam and James – it really means a lot to us!

November 2025

Best day ever. Best venue. Best owners. All round THE BEST in the business. From the very first time we visited, right until after our wedding, El has made our experience magical!! No question too big or small, so responsive and such a genuinely friendly person to deal with. El went above and beyond for us and made sure everything we wanted was done to perfection. We cannot thank El and the team at Leonards Hill Estate enough for our perfect day.

If you're looking for a stress free wedding venue look no further! Leonards Hill Estate is amazing in so many ways. The location is absolutely beautiful and we had lots of options for where to have the ceremony, which was super important as it was raining on our wedding day, but El had us sorted and we easily switched locations to be undercover. Choosing a package deal meant we were able to choose from a list of amazing vendors but it also took away so much wedding stress! No emailing a million people. El is an amazing venue manager she was a dream to work, she made the whole process super easy and just wanted our wedding to be amazing, which with her help it most definitely was! Super grateful for the whole Leonards Hill Estate team for bringing our dream wedding to life! Could not recommend more! Gemma and Hayden xx

Looking for a ceremony + reception location, with inclusions and prices listed in Victoria

Hi there, we are looking for info for a June 2025 wedding, with the ceremony and reception in the same location, prices and inclusions listed as I find most brochures do not include the prices. Ideally, we are looking for a cocktail style reception.

Leonards Hill Estate

Hi Suzie!

We can definitely help you with that :) We offer both ceremony and reception in the same location and have Cocktail style reception too! We can also send you a copy of our packages if you go on to our website www.leonardshillestate.com.au/weddings

3 Bridesmaids and No Groomsmen! HELP

My future Husband does not want groomsmen, but I want my 3 bridesmaids. How do we orgnaise photos and seating plan without making it look weird?

Leonards Hill Estate

Hello Madeleine!

That sounds great - it's good to be different :) A photographer is best to answer your question about the photos, but maybe you can have photos of just you and your future husband on some shots, and then you alone and your bridesmaids in another? 

With the seating plan, I would say to only have you and your future husband on a table by yourselves (if you like) or join everyone in a U-shape table setting, where you two will be at the top and your bridesmaids can sit next t you, as well as your family and friends, therefore, not making your bridesmaids a focus and it is more inclusive.

Hope that helps!
