If I could give Tatra more stars, I would!We were married here a week ago and couldn't be happier with the incredible venue and amazing staff.I had a million questions and requests in the lead up to our day - all were answered so promptly and the team were so helpful. The day itself was absolutely flawless, timing was perfect, our guests were blown away by the food, the staff were so polite and quick...I could go on.The venue itself is stunning and so well set up for all weather conditions, a million photo locations and the accommodation is a huge bonus.A shout out to Dearna, Bridget and Shelby for being so amazing!Thank you a million times over, we couldn't be happier!

Tatra Receptions is such a beautiful place and I'm so happy we had our wedding here. The preparation for our special day went by flawlessly. Tatra were very responsive and answered my multiple phone calls about every question I asked. The visits, the sampling dinner and all the pre-wedding events were wonderful.It rained on our wedding day so we were very grateful for a wet-weather option on site. Although we booked Tatra for a garden wedding, to have the back up option that still looked beautiful was a big relief for us.The food is fantastic, we had heaps of compliments on all meals and our favourite has to be the sticky date! The drinks package was great, plenty of opportunities for photos around the venue and everything ran to time.I rate them 4 stars because of two reasons:The night before my Sunday wedding, most of the accommodation was booked by my or my husbands family as many of us had travelled >2 hours or interstate. There was another wedding on the Saturday night. They had loud music but I thought they must of paid for an extended package to perhaps midnight to keep going. However, the music kept getting louder and louder til 2am in the morning! Turns out over 50 heavily intoxicated guests partied on loudly in the car park which is immediately infront of the accommodation and had large speakers (placed right next to the window of my aunties room), open alcohol, tables set up, and they were extremely rowdy and disturbing and wouldn't move off the grounds. Some of the guests were scared due to the drunkenness of some of the guests. There was no after hours number to contact Tatra, so my own family had to argue with the crowd at 1am to leave and police were called. As a result, no one got more than 5 hours sleep. Were we compensated at all? No. The venue apologised but that wasn't good enough. Absolutely appalling and if I knew they'd allow this sort of behaviour, I would of never recommended people to stay on site and insisted on an airbnb. Accommodation should of atleast been partially refunded because no one got a restful night sleep due to the selfishness of the Saturday guests and the venue. Perhaps security on site if guests are staying overnight might be an idea? Atleast to prevent anyone else experiencing this like me and my family did.The other issue I had was the MC. We didn't know who it was as it changes from day to day. It was a young woman. Which would of been fine, but she was so quiet no one could hear the announcements! My husband had to grab the mic or just yell and repeat what she said multiple times so guests knew what was going on. When we asked her to speak louder she refused and said she couldn't?? She had a microphone yet myself and my husbands voices were louder? In addition, there was no hype, no excitement in her voice, she just spoke as if she was reading off a list. Very disappointing! If I knew this, I would of outsourced a more lively MC ourselves.These were the only two faults of the venue, so from my personal experience, I'd recommend staying off site if you value rest, and outsource a loud speaking MC with some energy and excitement if that's what you want. But for a venue with wonderful food, gorgeous gardens, options for wet weather, stunning ball room, helpful admin staff, and to take the stress out of coordinating your wedding because they run it like a well oiled machine, Tatra was fantastic. 🙂

Apologies for the long awaited review, I thought I posted the review last year and realised now it never sent.My husband and I just celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary and we couldn't be more happier with the wonderful reception we have chosen. Two years prior to my husband proposing, I did my own research and knew Tatra was where I wanted to get married, and when we finally did a tour, my husband couldn't agree more. The venue is utterly beautiful and the food was great. The staff were amazing answering all of our questions (special thanks to Dearna and Emily) and our MC was fantastic (I'm so sorry I can't remember you're name, but you were utterly spectacular!). Thank you for taking care of us, hosting our day and accommodating to our cultural traditions. Our guests still talk about how it was the most amazing and beautiful wedding they've gone too. Changing the quote from Bride Wars, all I keep thinking when I see other venues is - 'It ain't October, and it ain't Tatra!". Beautiful venue, perfect for a fairytale, enchanting wedding. Thank you again for everything!

Tatra Receptions is my favourite wedding venue to perform in Melbourne's outer eastern suburbs because of its scenery, and it has 2 amazing grand pianos that are available to be played during the wedding ceremony and the cocktail hour!

Amazing venue with awesome leadership team in Andrew and Chloe. I've included some photos of the awesome photo locations that exist around Tatra - look at that heavenly light which is super rare in the Dandenongs!We've photographed/filmeds Western, Asian, European and Indian weddings at Tatra - it's a very versatile space, beautiful photo spots, both indoor and outdoor ceremony options, spacious interior space and friendly staff!

my Partner and I got married in March 2024 at Tatra. From the moment we arrived we fell in love with the venue. The grounds were stunning and the staff were amazing. Nothing was an issue, they were very helpful in accomodating anything we were after. The day ran smoothly and the food was delicious. If i could give 10 stars then I would. Highly Highly recommed.

We had our wedding at Tatra last week and everything about it was absolutely amazing and perfect. The venue was incredible. The staff were so helpful, lovely and very easy going. No matter what questions I had, they were very obliging and also very prompt with their responses, even during peak times. They also guided me throughout the entire process but also very calmly and patiently. Also very reasonably priced !! The on site bridal room was perfect for getting ready in.The food was amazing and the on site accomodation was super convenient !All of our guests also loved the venue.I could not recommend Tatra receptions more highly :)

Pure Timeless Elegance & Beauty!We were married at Tatra Receptions and it was absolute PERFECTION! 🤍✨Nothing was too much trouble, Andrew, Dearna and the team at Tatra truly made us feel like family, like anything was possible for our special day. The care they took to make sure every detail was taken care of was incredible. They even helped us to create the perfect timeline to ensure our guests had a seamless enjoyable experience but we also had time to connect with each other privately too.We are truly grateful to Tatra Receptions for making all of our dreams come true. Their gardens are something truly special unmatched by anything else in Victoria. It was the perfect location for all of our needs; to have the ceremony on site (with various options available), a gorgeously decorated grande ballroom (the pure essence of elegance) and not to mention accommodation on site for all of our guests.We truly give many thanks, from the bottom of our hearts, to Dearna, Andrew and Shelby. Most especially for all of their hard work on our behalf. We had many guests complementing the service they received, the beautiful grounds, the delicious and abundant food and appreciation of how well maintained not only the gardens were but the Event Place as a whole.Their hospitality was warm and we had so many options to choose from, you can really personalise your day the way you would like to here, it was truly a dream come true. We were able to hire a live pianist for cocktail hour, a violinist for the ceremony and in the gardens AND have a band in the reception, decorate how we wished to, make use of all the grounds privately for the WHOLE duration of our two days (including all unlimited use of the gardens, garden bar, chapel, grande ballroom, pre reception lounge and other outdoor spaces). There is also a gorgeous day room/bridal retreat large enough to fully spread out all your wedding day supplies and for you to get ready there if you wish to, I did not but it was a lovely place to get some silence for a moment in between all the busy-ness of the day.In conclusion, Tatra Receptions is a marvellous choice for Brides and Grooms desiring the WHOLE experience from start to finish for themselves and their guests. It is pure timeless elegance and fairytale magic. I would highly recommend a tour if you are considering a wedding in the Dandenong Ranges/Yarra Valley area.With much love,N & L

Tatra was such a beautiful place to hold our year 11 formal last year - the grounds and rooms are so gorgeous, the staff were all so friendly and helpful, and the organisational team at Tatra were more kind and accomodating than we ever could have hoped for! thank you so much for such an amazing night :)

We had our wedding at Tatra Receptions in Dec, 2023 and it was everything we imagined it would be! Andrew, Dearna and the staff were so helpful in making sure our day went smoothly as possible. It was forecasted for rain during the outside ceremony but we didn't want to make the call on moving it inside until as late as possible and they were so understanding and prepared to move things around if needed. Our wedding day & night went to a tee and it was all possible because the staff at Tatra made it so easy!

Tatra was the most amazing venue for our wedding just gone. From the moment we booked up until the day after our wedding it was everything we could’ve dreamed of, the atmosphere, the scenery, the food, the staff absolutely everything was perfect. Everyone was commenting on how amazing the entire day and night was 🥰The entire lead up Dearna in the office was incredible with the back and fourth emails, questions, answers and updates and on the day our coordinator Shelby was amazing we didn’t need to worry about a single thing. We knew everyone had it all under control and it was the best feeling 😊Would highly recommend Tatra any day, not only was the whole process extremely easy and fun their communication was great as well 😊

Every time I perform a wedding ceremony at Tatra receptions, I love working with their amazing staff who are always on point. There’s the added bonus of being amongst nature and an extremely well-maintained garden. Can’t wait to be back here for another wedding in the middle of March.

I got married here on the 11.11.23. From the moment we saw this venue, I knew this was the one. Other venues paled in comparison.We really wanted everything in one place, as some guests were travelling from interstate. We wanted accomodation close by, and to have both the ceremony and reception in one place, so our older guests didn't have to worry about going from one place to the next, and that's exactly what we got.Accomodation on site, rehearsal run through, bridal suite open early morning, platters and coffees, photobooth and neon sign all organised by the venue. Also, there's no need to go off site for photos. Tatra Receptions grounds are a dream.Our wedding wasn't just a one day thing, we celebrated over 3 days! The night before family and bridal party stayed at Tatras Accomodation, we had dinner out boys at one location and girls at another, then our big day the next day, and after we checked out - all guests that came stayed at Tatras Accommodation and a few others who wanted to keep celebrating came and had brunch with us, before all departing. It was perfect!We got signage stands supplied for our welcome sign and seating chart, complimentary food tasting, complimentary white seasoned flowers on each guest table and in the centre of the bridal table. This is a nice cost cut for the bride and groom. Also a complimentary wedding night stay in their honeymoon suite.Andrew, Debbie and the team were all so wonderful to deal with. They listened to what we wanted and delivered on the day. Dearna and Bianca our wedding day coordinators were lovely to deal with and very attentive. I recommend Tatra Receptions to anyone!The food is incredible, the gardens are majestic, they have the prettiest gazebo and cupola and the chapel is stunning! It's a bonus that the reception is also beautiful. It's the prettiest venue in all of the Dandenong Ranges and trust me, we saw them all haha.I am so happy we got the venue we wanted and so happy with how our day turned out. Even after the wedding, the team continued to be accommodating and wonderful. That's real service. Thank you, everyone, at Tatra.

Super impressed with our experience at Tatra. First of all, the owner and management are super flexible with lots of things, for example, scheduling times for our rehearsal outside those they usually offer, allowing us to come in for an additional food tasting for a dish we hadn't tried etc. We mostly spoke to Dearna throughout the planning process who was always super responsive and very helpful! The team set up my items on the day exactly as I had asked also. On the night, all of the staff members were wonderful and really lovely. Our on the day co-ordinator (whose name I unfortunately cannot recall - the day was such a blur!) was so wonderful. She kept me calm when I arrived to the venue later when expected, took it upon herself to problem solve the little things that weren't going quite to plan on the day, ensured we were kept in the loop all evening, tried to feed and water us as much as possible and so many other things that I probably didn't even notice! Honestly I don't think I could fault the venue at all on the day. Thanks so much!

Right from our first enquiry up until our wedding day, the staff at Tatra have been beyond exceptional, answering our questions, offering suggestions and advice, and helping out on our special day when it was needed. They were always so lovely to communicate whether it was through phone, email or in -person. Having great, professional people to work with made the process of organising a wedding so much easier especially when trying to plan a million things.The venue itself is just breathtaking with a vast amount of greenery that creates a mesmerising backdrop for photos. As soon as we got the tour to check out the venue, we pretty much knew then and there that this is our wedding venue to celebrate our special day. The reception space is so warm and welcoming with a large dance floor for guests to party on throughout the night. They also have beautiful fireplaces that can be lit which comes in handy especially for the unpredictable Melbourne weather.For all newly engaged couples, Tatra is the wedding venue of your dreams - you will not be disappointed and we couldn't of asked for a better venue to get married at. We are so grateful for the beautiful venue and service that Tatra provided and we can't thank you enough!

Communication was amazing no matter how many silly questions I had, the staff were always super friendly and helpful. The gardens are unlike anything we could have imagined and made us feel like we were in a fairytale.

Had an amazing wedding, great communication throughout the planning process. On the day itself it was raining, but with some effort from staff and some luck, we dried the seats for an outdoor ceremony. Food was loved by all and there were no issues, overall running smoothly throughout the entire night.However, the day before the wedding we were told that the music system was outdated and many of the speakers did not work. As we did not have a DJ or band playing, this was a slight issue, as sound quality of the music lacked.We would ask Tatra to invest in a better, updated sound system for future events.Ultimately, we recommend Tatra Receptions to anyone looking for a natural, beautiful venue for a wedding or other large event :)

Tatra was our wedding venue and we are SO HAPPY we chose it! We fell in love with it because of the various locations and backdrops within the one place: the ballroom, chapel, garden and many outdoor photoshoot options. On the day, we also had perfect weather which made the venue even more stunning! Our guests all complimented how beautiful it was and to be in Mt Dandenong. Tatra was always quick to respond and communicate with. The staff were so lovely and helpful on the day as well as prior to the day. It is also large enough for flexible big number of guests. Our guests also complimented the food and meals. It was also lovely having accommodation on site to stay overnight for ourselves as bride and groom, and for guests. Tatra is a great choice for wedding venue!

Two years prior to my husband proposing, I did my own research and... knew Tatra was where I wanted to get married, and when we finally did a tour, my husband couldn't agree more. The venue is utterly beautiful and the food was great. The staff were amazing answering all of our questions (special thanks to Dearna and Emily) and our MC was fantastic (I'm so sorry I can't remember you're name, but you were utterly spectacular!). Thank you for taking care of us, hosting our day and accommodating to our cultural traditions. Our guests still talk about how it was the most amazing and beautiful wedding they've gone too. Changing the quote from Bride Wars, all I keep thinking when I see other venues is - 'It ain't October, and it ain't Tatra!". Beautiful venue, perfect for a fairytale, enchanting wedding. Thank you again for everything!read more

Tatra Receptions is my favourite wedding venue to perform in Melbourne's outer eastern suburbs because of its scenery, and it has 2 amazing grand pianos that are available to be played during the wedding ceremony and the cocktail hour!

Great venue in the Ranges to host or attend an event. Recently attended two weddings at Tatra Receptions, and it was a great place with friendly staff and comfortable facilities.

Nothing was an issue, they were very helpful in accomodating anything we were after. The day ran smoothly and the food was delicious. If i could give 10... stars then I would. Highly Highly recommed.read more

We had our wedding at Tatra last week and everything about it was absolutely amazing and perfect. The venue was incredible. The staff were so helpful, lovely and very easy going. No matter what questions I had, they were very obliging and also very prompt with their responses, even during peak times. They also guided... me throughout the entire process but also very calmly and patiently. Also very reasonably priced !! The on site bridal room was perfect for getting ready in.The food was amazing and the on site accomodation was super convenient !All of our guests also loved the venue.I could not recommend Tatra receptions more highly :)read more

Pure Timeless Elegance & Beauty!We were married at Tatra Receptions and it was absolute PERFECTION! 🤍✨Nothing was too much trouble, Andrew, Dearna and the team at Tatra truly made us feel like family, like anything was possible for our special day. The care they took to make sure every detail was... taken care of was incredible. They even helped us to create the perfect timeline to ensure our guests had a seamless enjoyable experience but we also had time to connect with each other privately too.We are truly grateful to Tatra Receptions for making all of our dreams come true. Their gardens are something truly special unmatched by anything else in Victoria. It was the perfect location for all of our needs; to have the ceremony on site (with various options available), a gorgeously decorated grande ballroom (the pure essence of elegance) and not to mention accommodation on site for all of our guests.We truly give many thanks, from the bottom of our hearts, to Dearna, Andrew and Shelby. Most especially for all of their hard work on our behalf. We had many guests complementing the service they received, the beautiful grounds, the delicious and abundant food and appreciation of how well maintained not only the gardens were but the Event Place as a whole.Their hospitality was warm and we had so many options to choose from, you can really personalise your day the way you would like to here, it was truly a dream come true. We were able to hire a live pianist for cocktail hour, a violinist for the ceremony and in the gardens AND have a band in the reception, decorate how we wished to, make use of all the grounds privately for the WHOLE duration of our two days (including all unlimited use of the gardens, garden bar, chapel, grande ballroom, pre reception lounge and other outdoor spaces). There is also a gorgeous day room/bridal retreat large enough to fully spread out all your wedding day supplies and for you to get ready there if you wish to, I did not but it was a lovely place to get some silence for a moment in between all the busy-ness of the day.In conclusion, Tatra Receptions is a marvellous choice for Brides and Grooms desiring the WHOLE experience from start to finish for themselves and their guests. It is pure timeless elegance and fairytale magic. I would highly recommend a tour if you are considering a wedding in the Dandenong Ranges/Yarra Valley area.With much love,N & Lread more

Tatra was such a beautiful place to hold our year 11 formal last year - the grounds and rooms are so gorgeous, the staff were all so friendly and helpful, and the organisational team at Tatra were more kind and accomodating than we ever could have hoped for! thank you so much for such an amazing night :)

We had our wedding at Tatra Receptions in Dec, 2023 and it was everything we imagined it would be! Andrew, Dearna and the staff were so helpful in making sure our day went smoothly as possible. It was forecasted for rain during the outside ceremony but we didn't want to make the call on moving it inside until as late... as possible and they were so understanding and prepared to move things around if needed. Our wedding day & night went to a tee and it was all possible because the staff at Tatra made it so easy!read more

Tatra was the most amazing venue for our wedding just gone. From the moment we booked up until the day after our wedding it was everything we could’ve dreamed of, the atmosphere, the scenery, the food, the staff absolutely everything was perfect. Everyone was commenting on how amazing the entire day and night was... 🥰The entire lead up Dearna in the office was incredible with the back and fourth emails, questions, answers and updates and on the day our coordinator Shelby was amazing we didn’t need to worry about a single thing. We knew everyone had it all under control and it was the best feeling 😊Would highly recommend Tatra any day, not only was the whole process extremely easy and fun their communication was great as well 😊read more

Every time I perform a wedding ceremony at Tatra receptions, I love working with their amazing staff who are always on point. There’s the added bonus of being amongst nature and an extremely well-maintained garden. Can’t wait to be back here for another wedding in the middle of March.

I got married here on the 11.11.23. From the moment we saw this venue, I knew this was the one. Other venues paled in comparison.We really wanted everything in one place, as some guests were travelling from interstate. We wanted accomodation close by, and to have both the ceremony and reception in one place, so our... older guests didn't have to worry about going from one place to the next, and that's exactly what we got.Accomodation on site, rehearsal run through, bridal suite open early morning, platters and coffees, photobooth and neon sign all organised by the venue. Also, there's no need to go off site for photos. Tatra Receptions grounds are a dream.Our wedding wasn't just a one day thing, we celebrated over 3 days! The night before family and bridal party stayed at Tatras Accomodation, we had dinner out boys at one location and girls at another, then our big day the next day, and after we checked out - all guests that came stayed at Tatras Accommodation and a few others who wanted to keep celebrating came and had brunch with us, before all departing. It was perfect!We got signage stands supplied for our welcome sign and seating chart, complimentary food tasting, complimentary white seasoned flowers on each guest table and in the centre of the bridal table. This is a nice cost cut for the bride and groom. Also a complimentary wedding night stay in their honeymoon suite.Andrew, Debbie and the team were all so wonderful to deal with. They listened to what we wanted and delivered on the day. Dearna and Bianca our wedding day coordinators were lovely to deal with and very attentive. I recommend Tatra Receptions to anyone!The food is incredible, the gardens are majestic, they have the prettiest gazebo and cupola and the chapel is stunning! It's a bonus that the reception is also beautiful. It's the prettiest venue in all of the Dandenong Ranges and trust me, we saw them all haha.I am so happy we got the venue we wanted and so happy with how our day turned out. Even after the wedding, the team continued to be accommodating and wonderful. That's real service. Thank you, everyone, at Tatra.read more

Super impressed with our experience at Tatra. First of all, the owner and management are super flexible with lots of things, for example, scheduling times for our rehearsal outside those they usually offer, allowing us to come in for an additional food tasting for a dish we hadn't tried etc. We mostly spoke to Dearna... throughout the planning process who was always super responsive and very helpful! The team set up my items on the day exactly as I had asked also. On the night, all of the staff members were wonderful and really lovely. Our on the day co-ordinator (whose name I unfortunately cannot recall - the day was such a blur!) was so wonderful. She kept me calm when I arrived to the venue later when expected, took it upon herself to problem solve the little things that weren't going quite to plan on the day, ensured we were kept in the loop all evening, tried to feed and water us as much as possible and so many other things that I probably didn't even notice! Honestly I don't think I could fault the venue at all on the day. Thanks so much!read more

Right from our first enquiry up until our wedding day, the staff at Tatra have been beyond exceptional, answering our questions, offering suggestions and advice, and helping out on our special day when it was needed. They were always so lovely to communicate whether it was through phone, email or in -person. Having... great, professional people to work with made the process of organising a wedding so much easier especially when trying to plan a million things.The venue itself is just breathtaking with a vast amount of greenery that creates a mesmerising backdrop for photos. As soon as we got the tour to check out the venue, we pretty much knew then and there that this is our wedding venue to celebrate our special day. The reception space is so warm and welcoming with a large dance floor for guests to party on throughout the night. They also have beautiful fireplaces that can be lit which comes in handy especially for the unpredictable Melbourne weather.For all newly engaged couples, Tatra is the wedding venue of your dreams - you will not be disappointed and we couldn't of asked for a better venue to get married at. We are so grateful for the beautiful venue and service that Tatra provided and we can't thank you enough!read more

Tatra was our wedding venue and we are SO HAPPY we chose it! We fell in love with it because of the various locations and backdrops within the one place: the ballroom, chapel, garden and many outdoor photoshoot options. On the day, we also had perfect weather which made the venue even more stunning! Our guests all... complimented how beautiful it was and to be in Mt Dandenong. Tatra was always quick to respond and communicate with. The staff were so lovely and helpful on the day as well as prior to the day. It is also large enough for flexible big number of guests. Our guests also complimented the food and meals. It was also lovely having accommodation on site to stay overnight for ourselves as bride and groom, and for guests. Tatra is a great choice for wedding venue!read more
