Couples' reviews

We worked with Stacie on our Nov 2025 wedding for styling and event co-ordination and this is why you should work with her for your wedding Styling - Creativity: as a recovering perfectionist I can find it really hard to trust people to deliver the exact vision I want but Stacie’s creativity and professionalism made it so easy to put all my trust in her to achieve the look we wanted for the day. I remember standing there on my wedding day looking around the venue and thinking this is EXACTLY how I wanted it to look like. - Flexible: she’s very adaptable whenever you change your mind or want to try a new concept and will dive head first and research it all for you so you don’t have to do any of the ground work, making the decision making so easy after all the pros and cons are presented to you - Organised: Stacie will keep you accountable with making those decisions you’ve been putting off with gentle reminders, she’s shown great organisation and attention to detail from her previous experiences and helps you to perfect the ideal look you want for your wedding while meeting deadlines for ordering any decor - Budget: I wanted to DIY some things and Stacie was very happy to let me do this and worked with the decor and signage that I made - Committed: Stacie delivered on all the items that we agreed on , and she absolutely hit the ball out of the park with her work on draping for the dancefloor and entry way. Event co ordination - she’s cool calm and collected! On the day she does not stress and makes you feel very relaxed. She’s perfected the fine line between making sure things run on time but also flexible to give you time to breathe and not feel like the day is so rigid. - I would highly recommend working with Stacie for event co ordination because it allows you to enjoy the day rather than stressing about directing people on where to go and what to do. Overall Stacie played a huge part in the success of our day and we felt she was always on our side , she has the perfect blend of creativity, professionalism and attention to detail and would highly recommend her work to future couples!

Don’t bother with other venues, just go with this one!! El is such a legend. She was answering my questions day or night , she was our personal cheerleader on the day and she is just an absolute ray of sunshine making every interaction with Leonards Hill Estate a dream. When visiting other venues , I don’t think we along with anyone more than we did with El and Keith who truly are down to earth, honest people who are very passionate about making your wedding dreams a reality. This is what you want in a venue team - people who are easy going enough so you can ask any silly question you have but also upbeat and positive enough to share the joy with on the day. Not to mention they are very honest and will tell you if they are not sure (and will get back to you with answers ASAP) but will definitely deliver on any promises made. They are a professional team to work with. And the venue Omg!! It’s the perfect mix between outdoorsy (we got married under the beautiful tree) and classy (the shed at night with the soft lighting is so dreamy)- I want to say modern australiana! Not to mention the abundance of kangaroos who roam around the property which just adds to the Australiana feel of the whole venue. It’s also very customisable and allows for couples to bring their own personal style without clashing with the exisiting buildings/interiors and gardens. Another huge plus point is that it’s in Daylesford which is a lovely place in Victoria for out of towners to spend a weekend in and it was very easy to find accom, brunch spots and things to do for our guests. All of our guests felt the wedding was so relaxed and intimate and this really comes down to the venue. There’s some parking spots too and easy access for buses to drop off your guest. I also loved that there are several customisable packages to suit couples of every budget and I felt their pricing was very reasonable given the high cost of everything these days- they also were happy for us to choose our own vendors and fully customise what we wanted and didn’t want according to our budget. The vendors they suggested were also a very important part of our success on the day- every vendor that was recommended felt like they had been intentionally chosen by El and we were very happy to work with these local and small businesses which made sure the money we spent on this wedding would also stay in the Daylesford community to support their local economy. Another huge plus point was having the homestead on site where we stayed with the bridal party- there was no rush to get to the venue after getting ready because we could simply walk across the courtyard and get the ceremony started. I could keep going on but if you want a wedding that - is based in a modern , Australian venue - Is customisable to suit your individual needs and style - Is Intentional and sustainable (they are solar powered too!) - Your money will go to a family run business and vendors in the Daylesford local economy - Will be remembered by all your guests - Has a team who is an absolute joy to work with I would highly recommend Leonards Hill Estate!!
