Thank you so much to Victoria, Chris and Hera for the wedding of my dreams! As soon as I saw the venue, I knew it was the one and immediately booked and paid my deposit that day! 2 years of planning, changing the plans, constant messages back and forth, and I couldn't believe the perfection! The food was to die for, everything was organised so I didn't have to worry about a thing, and the added inclusions are something you cannot find anywhere else! We will 100% be coming back to renew our vows every few years....MAKE SURE TO BOOK LAURISTON HOUSE AS YOUR EVENT VENUE!! Thabk you again! I'm still in shock from how perfect and dreamy my wedding was!

Victoria and Hera were an absolute pleasure to deal with throughout our whole wedding planning journey. They were both very prompt with replies and provided a high level of communication. The venue is absolutely stunning, our guests raved about how good the food was and the whole night flowed beautifully. It was exactly what we were looking for in a venue and we would highly recommend them for any occasion.

Victoria and the team were essential in making our wedding the incredible event it was. From the moment we stepped into that beautiful single venue, we were greeted like family. All of our guests raved about the food (pork roast and lamb) and how great it was to have no other weddings around us. It meant we could have as much noisy Taiko drumming as we wanted. Lauriston helped coordinate our vendors for us, including fireworks that made our entrance spectacular and providing a free getaway car. Even when things went awry, Victoria went out of her way to make sure the day went off perfect. We used our own MC, but the House DJ played everything we requested even when the songs were weird JPOP tracks. The venue also includes centerpieces and chairs, and free ceremony. For value plus a stress free, fun wedding, Lauriston was utterly perfect.

We were married at Lauriston house over the weekend and to say the experience was magical would be a massive understatement! The team go above and beyond with every aspect of planning, they are supportive and happy to answer all of those little questions that pop into a couples brain. Being an all in one venue meant I had very little extra work to do and I could leave it in the hands of the professionals. We had a high number of special dietary guests who were all well catered for including the bride! Many of our guests have told us it’s the best wedding they have ever been to and we cannot disagree! Thank you so much Lauriston house team for making our special day so spectacular.

My wedding was PERFECT! I want to say a BIG THANKYOU to all the staff for creating the most magical day. A big thankyou to my event planner Chris , she went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. I booked all vendors through Lauriston House and it made my life soo much easier. (great prices) The big perk about this venue is its a one function venue. My wedding ran through seamlessly from ceremony right through to leaving. ANOTHER perk is most of the styling is done. they included a white dancefloor and a beautiful white mirrored bridal table . let me tell you NO venue provided this, it was all an extra cost. Lauriston included it in my package FREE OF CHARGE. HIGHLY recommended ! Thankyou so much you guys are the best !@ xo J + C 17/6/23
