Kind words

  • Britney Beamish

    “The Grove Gippsland ticked every box for our wedding day! Not only did we get a picture-perfect venue to tie the knot but we received exceptional service from the Event Coordinator Sarah and the team at The Grove who executed the day of our dreams. The food was exceptional and loved by all who attended!”

  • Veronica Westhead

    “The Grove Gippsland was the most amazing stunning venue for our Wedding last November. The scenery, the atmosphere, the food, and the staff provided nothing but excellent service. Everything was perfect and we could not have hoped for better. Roy and I didn’t want our day to end. Our guests were commenting on how amazing our entire day and night was and are still today. Sarah from the moment we booked the venue took us under her wing and looked after every detail she was outstanding. With the back and fourth emails, questions, answers and updates she made our special day run smoothly and stress free. It was the best feeling to know how well looked after we were. We would wholeheartedly recommend the Grove for any function. Thank you for making our dreams come true”

  • Marcus Hopkins

    “The Grove is an absolutely stunning venue and we couldn’t think of anywhere better to have had our wedding. Our guests raved about not only how beautiful the venue was, but also how delicious the food was and how friendly the staff were. Sarah was absolutely amazing and we couldn’t think of anyone better to help plan our special day. From the moment we first contacted Sarah, she was willing to cater to every need and answer every question. She was the perfect addition to the day, keeping a relaxed vibe and helping everything to run smoothly. Sarah let our day unfold naturally and was always there to assist. We will forever be grateful for Sarah and the staff’s work and couldn’t recommend anywhere better for a wedding.”

  • Catherine Gementiza

    “We had our wedding at the Grove Gippsland last January 2024 (1 year ago) and it still feels like yesterday. We had the best time of our lives. We highly recommend booking here for any events especially a wedding! Planning a wedding is stressful (my wife will say this until now) and I think choosing a place where you will have your wedding is as equally important as choosing your bride, lucky for me I chose the best for both! When we had our first site visit when we were still choosing our venue, one visit was enough for us to tell that this was the place, from our ceremony , to canapes and to the reception, everything was just perfect. Sarah from The Grove helped us plan everything and she was very responsive and helped us from the beginning to the end.”

We fire up the smoker and serve a relaxed lunch full of bold flavors. Think slow-cooked beef, sticky pork, hot sauce and the best chicken around. Add crispy onion rings, fries, cold drinks and great company… and you’ve got the perfect Sunday.
