About Riverlea Estate
Set on a picturesque 14-acre property in Warrandyte South, described as the gateway to the Yarra Valley, Riverlea Estate is a reimagined wedding and events venue that pairs a working winery with modern, state-of-the-art facilities just outside Melbourne.
Couples can choose from several ceremony settings across the grounds — The Green, a manicured garden lawn seating up to 80 guests; the adaptable Marquee Chapel for up to 140 seated; and The Arbour, an elevated outdoor spot overlooking the estate and vineyard for smaller ceremonies. The vineyard, first planted in 1982, provides a natural backdrop throughout.
Receptions are hosted in The Melva Room — named after the founders' late mother and featuring a lofted ceiling, Aurora chandelier and a skylight above the dance floor — seating up to 350 guests, while the homestead's Apple Blossom Room suits more intimate gatherings. Dedicated Bridal Suite and Grooms Homestead spaces give the wedding party a private place to prepare. Explore more wedding venues in Victoria.
