Plan a Multicultural Wedding Across Gardens, Chapel and Ballroom

Couples planning a wedding that honours more than one culture often find that a standard venue package leaves little room for their traditions. Larger guest lists, extended ceremony customs and family expectations all need space and time that a fixed schedule may not allow. 

Multi-Cultural Wedding Venues Melbourne couples consider need flexibility in the ceremony setting, the guest capacity and the way the day is run. A venue that supports traditional ceremony elements, offers more than one setting and gives the couple the whole property lets families plan around their customs instead of around the venue's timetable. 

Ceremony Settings for Different Traditions 

Ballara Receptions offers a chapel with stained-glass windows, English-style gardens, a lakeside gazebo, a jetty and a courtyard, so couples can match the setting to the ceremony. The team can help incorporate traditional elements such as a Mandap, Agni or Laja for a Hindu ceremony, and the ballroom holds up to 160 guests. Menus can be plated, shared or cocktail style.
