WOW!! Thank you so much Yude and Noel for this absolutely incredible review - reading this has honestly made our day (maybe our whole week!!) 🌟 Knowing that you felt so supported and cared for throughout the whole process means the world to us.

It was such a special day and we're so thrilled you chose to celebrate at Leonards Hill Estate. We LOVE that you and your guests felt that relaxed, intimate vibe - that's exactly what we're going for! And yes, the kangaroos definitely add that special Australiana touch 🦘 We're beyond grateful you trusted us with your special day and that every detail came together to create those dreamy moments you'll remember forever.

Thank you so much for these beautiful words - they really mean everything to us! Having you both here at Leonards Hill Estate was such a privilege, and being part of your planning journey - through all the emotions and decisions - was honestly a highlight for me. You made it easy because you both knew what mattered to you, and seeing it all come together on the day was incredible. I'm so happy the venue felt right for you from those first visits. That feeling of just knowing - it's the best! And everything we did, big or small, was genuinely our pleasure because we could see how much it all meant to you both. Thank you for trusting us with your day, for all the chats, the laughs, and the hugs along the way. The team and I loved being part of it, and knowing your guests felt welcome too makes us so happy. Wishing you both all the happiness ahead, Sandy and Joel! With love, El & the LHE team x

Hi there, we are looking for info for a June 2025 wedding, with the ceremony and reception in the same location, prices and inclusions listed as I find most brochures do not include the prices. Ideally, we are looking for a cocktail style reception.
Leonards Hill Estate

We can definitely help you with that :) We offer both ceremony and reception in the same location and have Cocktail style reception too! We can also send you a copy of our packages if you go on to our website www.leonardshillestate.com.au/weddings

3 Bridesmaids and No Groomsmen! HELP
My future Husband does not want groomsmen, but I want my 3 bridesmaids. How do we orgnaise photos and seating plan without making it look weird?
Leonards Hill Estate
Hello Madeleine!
That sounds great - it's good to be different :) A photographer is best to answer your question about the photos, but maybe you can have photos of just you and your future husband on some shots, and then you alone and your bridesmaids in another?
With the seating plan, I would say to only have you and your future husband on a table by yourselves (if you like) or join everyone in a U-shape table setting, where you two will be at the top and your bridesmaids can sit next t you, as well as your family and friends, therefore, not making your bridesmaids a focus and it is more inclusive.
Hope that helps!
