Excellent value for money! There was no venue hire fee so you only need to meet their food and beverage minimum. They are transparent with their prices and you can work out how much your wedding would cost via their online Events brochure. With 32 people for our small wedding, the total was approx. $5,800 for food, beverages and venue. The food, service and the views were absolutely amazing. Absolutely recommended for budget conscious brides!

Eureka89 was absolutely amazing!!!! I would highly highly recommend them as a wedding venue. From the start of the planning process, they were so flexible and easy to communicate with. We had Laura at the start but she left and we had Chiara - both of them were amazing. The transition between the two coordinators was seamless. The food is sensational there and the staff were incredibles. The view from the eureka is amazing. We had such a great day weather wise but I have been there when it’s super cloudy too and it’s still amazing. We are so happy we chose the Eureka89 as our venue. So many of our guests have told that loved the food and that it was easily one of the best weddings they have been too.

Lara, the venue manager, has been the best throughout our wedding planning from the first point of contact on email and zoom, up till our meet ups during menu tasting and rehearsal. Considering we are not located in Melbourne, much of our correspondence was on emails and she was very prompt in replying and accommodating to our needs. The whole wedding went seamlessly well, and needless to say Lara and her team has provided tip-top service to us, and reduce our stress from the wedding planning. We definitely recommend Eureka 89 as a wedding venue, with superb view of Melbourne as well as great service!
