Eltham Wedding Venue – Where Nature Meets Convenience
If you are engaged and considering areas to celebrate your wedding, an Eltham wedding venue could be the ideal location.
For couples with family and friends in Melbourne’s northern and eastern suburbs, leafy Eltham is a lovely and romantic backdrop – so an Eltham wedding venue that is renowned for its style and service is a great find.
While it is still close enough to the heart of Melbourne for guests to travel easily, Eltham is a green wedge area that remains well-protected from the urban spread. Home to the artist colony Montsalvat, amongst other attractions, it has a rich history. Your go-to Eltham wedding venue, Ballara Receptions, is an extension of this, and is the perfect spot for fairytale weddings.

When planning an Eltham wedding, it can seem somewhat overwhelming as to where to get started. Thanks to the internet, you have a world of helpful resources at your fingertips, information that can help you plan everything from finding a local floral designer, hiring a photographer, and choosing other wedding services. Indeed, you can save yourself plenty of time and money by doing much of the groundwork online. Choosing vendors local to the area means they are familiar with the venue, and are less likely to get stuck in traffic or be late on the day!
