Ninis was the perfect venue for our Wedding. The gorgeous venue, awesome staff and the most delicious food made our night everything we could have dreamed of and more. Bita and Mat were so easy to get along with and were so happy to work with our ideas and hopes and made our unorganised planning look easy. We cannot thank them enough for making our special day something we will never forget.

Brilliant. The hawthorn common is a great wedding venue for an intimate sit down wedding for 80-90. We had our whole wedding, including ceremony here and the space is just perfect. The set up a little arch on the deck and a little aisle with a few chairs - it was beautiful and worked so well. A really intimate space. As we walked back down the aisle we had asked the staff to start popping the bubbly - a magical moment! The food was incredible (our guests were raving about it for days!), the drinks were flawless and the staff were happy, friendly and so easy to work with - especially when we wanted to extend the dance floor for another hour! The flowers organised by their on site florist were so perfect. The deck worked so well for post ceremony canapés and of course the dance floor. Dancing out on the deck in the open air under the stairs gives a very different vibe to an indoors venue. However, we were very happy to know that we did have space for a dance floor if it rained. This space was perfect for us. The team at the hawthorn common were fabulous and I can't recommend them enough.

The flowers were done onsite by the owners family. From the moment we met Faye - we knew she would really capture the essence of our day. She was so warm and really engaged in the experience. The flowers were so beautiful and she really got it so perfectly right for our day. High recommended - such a beautiful soul who is really invested in making your day magical.
