Where do we start?! Winehouse fulfilled every single one of our wedding dreams. From the very beginning we knew we had hit the jack pot. Sam was nothing short of incredible. She organised almost everything for our day including flowers, music, transport, cake, stationary, table decor and the helicopter, nothing was a bother. Her communication was spot on, she was so flexible with all of our requests and the day came together exactly how we had pictured, because of her. Kathi was our right hand lady in the day, she went above and beyond and made my husband and I feel completely at ease. The food and alcohol was amazing, every guest commented on how delicious it was. The service was also incredible. The space is just stunning, taking our guests breath away. If you’re considering getting married at Winehouse, look no further because it was absolutely amazing! If we could give more than 5 stars we would. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts x

I can't thank Sam, Louise & the team enough for our once-in-a-lifetime day. Planning a wedding overseas (from AU) should be stressful, but Sam totally got our vision & pulled everything together like a dream. It was so seamless & I had full confidence every step of the way. She also gave me a list of recommended suppliers - all of which I used (who were all also wonderful). On the day everything ran like clockwork - all we had to do was sit back and enjoy ourselves. Everyone has been telling us its the best wedding they've been to (& the best food) - I couldn't be more grateful to you & your wonderful team!

We chose Winehouse for the stunning backdrop and sprawling gardens. What we got was so much more than we could have expected. We were told repeatedly that it was the best wedding our guests had attended. The outdoor setting was so sophisticated, the food was out of this world and the service was flawless. Sam was with us every step of the way from 18 months before the big day. She is a wealth of knowledge and her attention to detail and support is unmatched. Ella was the show-runner on the day and (as far as we knew!) everything ran without a hitch! Our day was absolutely perfect from start to finish because of the Winehouse team. Thank you for the best day of our lives!!!!

Absolute dream team at the Winehouse. Sam is so thorough through the organising process and her staff are friendly and so efficient. From start to finish we felt like they had everything under control. Our event went off with out a single hitch and they delivered on every detail. The gardens and property are so beautiful especially as a back drop for photos. I cant recommend the winehouse enough!!

Sam and her team at the winehouse ensured we had the most magical day. From booking the venue till the big day everything ran smoothly and we had the most perfect day i wish we could do it all over again. We had the lovely Ella as our on the day coordinator and she smashed it out of the park with how organised she is and her attention to detail for everything. I couldn't recommend them more as a venue and for planning!
