VINES AND VIBES: OUR TOP PICKS FOR SAYING “I DO” IN STYLE

If you're planning a Melbourne wedding and don’t know where to start, we’ve got you. These two sister venues are absolute standouts — whether you're dreaming of a glam ballroom bash or a romantic vineyard moment, they’re both so Married By A Teddy-approved.

1. VOGUE BALLROOM

Location: Burwood East, VIC
Vibe: Grand, glamorous, and ready to party

OLD-WORLD GLAMOUR, MELBOURNE-STYLE MAGIC

Located in Burwood East, Vogue Ballroom is a Melbourne wedding and reception venue all about luxury and spectacle. From its glittering chandeliers and dramatic staircase to its state-of-the-art sound system, this venue is for the lovers who want to turn heads — and then dance till dawn.

WHY IT’S PERFECT FOR A MARRIED BY A TEDDY CEREMONY:

  • All-weather elegance — no Plan B needed

  • Grand entrances made for drama

  • Glamorous backdrops for your ceremony and your selfies

  • Spacious enough for sequins, traditions, flash mobs... or all three

  • It’s all indoors, so no weather worries — just pure elegance

  • Great for themed or high-fashion weddings (yes, they’ve done everything from Gatsby to Bollywood chic here)

  • Incredible lighting and sound for those big entrance moments

  • A total blank canvas with glamour built-in


TEDDY’S TIP:
Want your ceremony to feel like a movie premiere? This is your red carpet.
Want to make a grand entrance? This place was literally designed for it.


2. VINES OF THE YARRA VALLEY

Location: Coldstream, VIC
Vibe: Elegant countryside with a dash of Tuscan dreamscape

WHERE RUSTIC ELEGANCE MEETS VINEYARD CHIC

Floor-to-ceiling windows with rolling vineyards in the background. A stunning Yarra Valley wedding venue fit for a ceremony under the gum trees or inside their light-filled chapel. Then roll into a reception with premium wine, fine dining, and maybe even a kangaroo spotting. It’s luxe meets laid-back, and we are so here for it.

WHY IT’S PERFECT FOR A MARRIED BY A TEDDY CEREMONY

  • Flexible spaces: intimate elopement or 150-guest gala? Sorted.

  • Stunning indoor and outdoor ceremony options

  • Natural light, epic views, and dreamy photography spots

  • A relaxed but refined vibe that lets love take centre stage

  • Perfect for romantics and adventurers alike

  • Nature lovers? You’re surrounded by it

  • Flexibility for intimate elopements or big guest-list bonanzas

  • A ceremony spot that looks like a movie set (yes, really)


TEDDY’S TAKE:
If you want golden hour magic, this venue serves sunset backdrops like nobody's business. But time your ceremony just before the golden hour for the chef’s kiss lighting.
