The Ivory Elsternwick

We had our wedding at The Ivory back in 2019 before the COVID pandemic. What a beautiful night. Everything was run smoothly and beautifully. Our guests still boast about our wedding until this day, which in fact is what reminded me to put up this google review! I did not feel stressed at all on the night. Everything that had been discussed and that we asked for, was executed perfectly on the night. Thank you to the team at The Ivory Elsternwick ❤️.

After 4 postponements (due to COVID), my now husband and I had our dream wedding at The Ivory in May 2022. We honestly could not fault a single thing. The whole planning process was so smooth, even whilst changing dates around several times, which is a credit to their fantastic events team. We couldn't recommend them highly enough. Thank you for a day we will never forget!

Was here for a wedding and the staff were amazing and the venue was nicely decorated. The food however was just okay.. nothing too flash...

We had our wedding in the Ivory in June 2022. What a great experience. Everything was flawless, the staff were amazing and the drinks kept flowing!Every single guest said it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to. For ourselves, we could not think of anything that could have gone better on the night. The venue looked amazing and we didn't have to do a single thing to it - one less thing to worry about!Thanks Danielle (sales), Jennifer (coordinator) and the rest of the team!

My husband and I scouted a few reception venues before we finally decided on The Ivory. The venue itself was elegant, simple and classic and was exactly what we were looking for! Shout out to our wedding coordinator, Katie, who helped us along the process of wedding planning as the days came closer and was so patient with us!

We had a great wedding at the Ivory. First, Jennifer, our coordinator was really helpful for our first planning meeting right up until the night itself - including being very accommodating with a number of changes that we needed due to recent restrictions. The venue itself is gorgeous, and the grand piano that the band keyboard player could play during canapés was a really nice touch as well. Also, we had nothing but huge compliments from all our guests on the food and wait staff, who were all so friendly and professional. We definitely recommend The Ivory for anyone thinking of a wedding venue.

My husband and I were lucky enough to get married at The Ivory in November 2021 just as Covid restrictions were easing after what was a difficult year.After our first visit to the venue we knew this was the one - it has the perfect mix between modern and romantic elegance and the beautiful courtyard was an added bonus as this meant we didn't have to have the ceremony at a different location to the reception.The Ivory has a generous main reception room with a large dancefloor along with ample space in the foyer allowing for our wonderful vendors such as the photobooth and ice cream cart to serve our guests. Although we opted for our own decor, it was lovely to see the venue hire had a lot of great inclusions as standard.We were also very happy with Jennifer as our co-ordinator who was very helpful and answered our millions of questions and provided comfort and flexibility in a time of uncertainty.Thanks to The Ivory and the team for making our day so memorable and ensuring things ran as smoothly as they did.

The venue needs an update. The same dusty center pieces. The food is in edible. I don't know who is in charge of food, but prison food would be better. No air flow and warm drinks.

We had our amazing wedding here in August 2022 - WOW!!! What a night. Our wedding is still being spoken about and what a fantastic night it was amongst family and friends. The process from start to the last minute of the wedding night was a dream. Communication was amazing so everyone was always on the same page, this made things stress free and the process fun. I can recommend this venue enough for your special night. Thank you Katie, the team and the Ivory.

My husband and I would love to say a big thank you for the team at The Ivory Elsternwick.... what a blast of a night not only for us, the bridal team but all the guests aswell.We couldn't have asked for a better night. Not knowing what to expect, but what a wonderful time and night it turned out to be.The venue itself is beautiful, the inclusions are great such as bridal table flowers if you want to save, or choose your own design like we did for the bridal table and keep the guests table flowers. Some things we loved was no hidden costs such as corkage fees or cake cutting fees. We had 200 guests and felt that space was perfect. Not too small but cosy and intimate while guests had plenty of space in the foyer to enjoy as well. Going to some other venues, we liked that the ivory looked new and not rundown like some others we visited. The bridal room was pretty and great size, even the toilets had plenty of amenities.Ceremony area is awesome and convenient.Jennifer did her best to help us and was always accommodating and flexible for changes, dietary requirements and all vendors and suppliers were organised so well, I did not have anyone asking me what's going on. She kept us updated and in the loop all the time, answered all questions obviously being our first time getting married, and suggested recommendations etc.We had a live band and it really brought the night alive. The lighting in the reception creates a lovely ambience aswell.We were lucky to not have to change our dates at all so all in all, everything worked out for us.Would definitely recommend to family and friends
