    We had our wedding on the 5th of January 2013 and were extremely impressed with the professionalism of the staff at Lauriston House. The venue was beautiful, the meals delicious, the staff friendly and accommodating in every aspect. Nothing was a problem, they accepted changes at the last minute and did everything in their power to make our night as special as possible.

    We were particularly impressed with Joe, Christine and Paul. They did not just meet our expectations but far exceeded them. We would definitely recommend Lauriston House to all of our family and friends.

    Dear Victoria,

    We have taken this opportunity to write to you with regard to our recent wedding (Sunday 21st August 2011) held at your function centre, Lauriston House at Dundas.

    We had done some research previously prior to booking Lauriston House. However, we have to say from the first appointment with Christina at Lauriston House, it was clear to the both of us, that this was where we wanted to have our wedding and reception.

    It was a totally seamless process with all your staff assisting in every way possible. Nothing was too much trouble, and in fact, we had nothing to worry about or to organise.

    The subsequent meetings with Joe & Paul a few weeks out from our wedding only made us more comfortable and relaxed about our big day.

    On the day itself, everything was perfect and we mean everything. The wedding and the subsequent reception were all done with ease and professionalism, and your team was just sensational. We were made to feel this was our home where our family and friends could enjoy the celebration.

    The reception after the wedding ceremony was perfect in every way. The settings, the food and the service was second to none. We have been in contact with our family and friends since the wedding and we asked them for their thoughts, and all have made the same comment, It was perfect, the food and service was fantastic.

    We asked our guests what would they have changed on the day and the answer from all of them was nothing - it was just fantastic.

    We want to give thanks to your staff in the kitchen. The food served on the night was amazing. Everybody made the comment that the food was just outstanding.

    We would like to make the following comments about your staff:

    Christina

    Christina was so warm and friendly. She took all of our worries and turned them into solutions and positives. Nothing was too much trouble. She assured us that whatever we needed, they could fix. We walked away from that first appointment with Christina and felt everything was in good hands.

    Joe

    The service was so professional and like Christina, nothing was a problem.
    The bar / wine service on the night was great. The wine was lovely and nobody was left waiting for anything. Our guests made the same comment on the wine service as the food. Excellent.

    Paul

    What a night of entertainment, we could not have asked for a better MC. He took care of everything - the Bride & Groom and our guests. He made the night flow and entertained us all. He was very professional and managed the night to perfection.

    In summing up, we would like to say a big thank you to you and your team who were simply amazing. We would like to say a big thank you for the special gift we received on the night - the accommodation package for the Shangri-La was simply fantastic. As we put this thank you together, the same words come to mind. Amazing, fantastic and professional. This is what you gave us on our wedding day. We thank you sincerely, as do all our family and guests who attended our wedding day at Lauriston House.


    Kind Regards



    Frank & Leanne Hurley

    I had my wedding at Lauriston House in March. It was definitely the most fanstastic day of my life. My family and friends are still raving about how much they enjoyed the whole day. If you are looking for an amazing expeerience and the wedding that youo have dreamed of since you weree a little girl, then this is definitely the place. And the staff were so helpful. They were able to fit around both mine and my husbands busy schedules and accommodate us as best they could. It was stress free and smooth running. All I had to worry about was turning up on the day.
    The food was delicious, and their dessert......wow.....I would have my weddding again just to taste that delicious chocolate mousse.
    Thankyou to all the staff who made my day so memorable.

    What can I say, I had my wedding reception 2 weeks ago at this amazing venue. The lead up to my wedding experience with Victoria and her team was expectational. Christina and Joe in the office were fantastic as was the MC on the evening.

    The crystal chandeliers and ambiance of the home is out of this world!

    The attention to detail on the night was more than I expected, it blew myself and new hubby away. The guests were treated as family, the service and food was exceptional. One thing that I was honoured with was that my cousin has now booked her wedding at Lauriston House for October 2012 and I am looking forward to experiencing it from a guest point of view.

    I would highly recommend this venue for anyone looking at getting married

    Very disappointing considering the number of "awards" they have. Head staff who sold us the wedding deal tried to overcharge us 1 person and 1 cocktail by taking it out of the deposit even though we were under the number of people we had paid for, and the additional cocktail was a remake as it was too sour.

    Took at -least- 1 month for them to send us the deposit. They said they had sent it and we receive it 1 week later. Postage within Sydney doesn't take 1 week! Not to mention, the amount written in the deposit was wrong as they just took money out without telling us till after. We had to wait -another- week for them to send us the rest of our deposit - this was after we were told they would call us on this day, then this day, and -finally they called us back when we demanded they give us back our money or we would consider further action. All this and they were not even apologetic and just giving us excuses on why it was so delayed!

    All this happened -after- the wedding - not to mention that on the actual wedding night..

    1. One of the entrees tasted horrible like creamy goo

    2. Chocolate fondant was more like hard chocolate cake (even after they had attempted it "5 times" as we were told - not sure if that was true) - how can a chef get this wrong after 5 attempts?

    3. They cut the first dance song half way through

    I am so glad I don't have to deal with these people anymore and certainly will NOT be recommending my friends to have any functions here.
