“Adam and I would like to thank you and everyone else at Valhalla for helping create the most magical day possible for us. Having our wedding at Valhalla was always the only option for us. From the first moment we went there we fell in love with the venue and its surrounds. The food served was absolutely amazing. It was such high quality. All our guests loved the range of foods brought out. We were able to get some magical photos on the property thanks to the beautiful grounds ... I can't express how happy and grateful I am to have had our wedding at Valhalla. So once again thank you so much!!!” Lauren

How would you describe your wedding venue to someone who hasn’t seen it?

Located on the exclusive Spruce Estate, where country meets the coast, Valhalla Restaurant Bar offers a mystic pine forest for couples to escape to for their photography, yet is only located 7 minutes drive from the famous Birubi Beach.

“From the moment we saw Valhalla we were in awe.... we knew this was our magical wedding venue and booked it on the spot. We wanted our wedding to be an experience for our guests and to reflect the laidback, chilled people we are. The Viking-inspired decor and the beautiful greenery made for a perfect setting for our happily ever after. We barely had any wedding decorations because we wanted the venue to speak for itself. Valhalla was so accommodating in customising our wedding and making sure all the details were perfect. They brought in our favourite drinks for the night and the food was amazing. Our guests still comment on the vibe our wedding had, everything was so smooth, casual but beautiful. We had the most amazing time and loved every minute of the experience. We wouldn’t change one moment... and loved our Viking experience. Thank you.” Emma

Couldn’t have picked a more beautiful spot to get married. Absolutely stunning location, delicious food, and spacious for our 70 guests to eat and relax as well as tear up the dance floor.

We had an amazing experience with Valhalla! The venue was a simple, natural and beautiful canvas for our wedding. We didn't have to decorate much to make it look amazing. The food was fabulous. And there was plenty to be had. People really enjoyed the variety of flavours. We were missing two salads, however, we have been fairly compensated. The staff were friendly and relaxed. They were also flexible. Valhalla had a quick easy wet weather option available that really put my mind to ease as I wanted an outdoor wedding in their treelined driveway. Having my ceremony and reception at the same venue was also very convenient for my friends and family who helped me setting up. The few suppliers I used worked well together and were familiar with the space which made the day run smoothly too. This was our favourite wedding so far! Thank you Valhalla.

We chose to marry at Valhalla because the venue is gorgeous with a beautiful tree lined driveway, rustic, warm interiors and great pizzas. Unfortunately, I'm sad to say the outcome of using this venue was subpar. Communication with the events manager was almost non-existent. Taking up to 3 weeks for responses via email & difficulty to reach them through phone or text. On the day, it was disappointing. Despite having paid specifically for 2 wait staff as part of our package & told our guests would be served separately they double booked without supplying enough staff, the wait for a drink was ridiculous, this is one example . We had to request to have things removed or to be done, which should have just been managed. There were a lot of things promised to us that were not upheld. This venue is beautiful but the service is not great.

My partner and I got married at Valhalla in August 2022. The atmosphere there is absolutely amazing, and combined with the breathtaking scenery it made the perfect venue for us. Our coordinators Indigo and Elissa were incredible, making the planning and set-up a really easy process. Elissa was there for our day and went above and beyond to help us make our dream wedding a reality. All of our guests commented on how much they loved the space, the food and how friendly the staff were. We will be recommending Valhalla to anyone searching for an amazing venue for any event.
