Venue & grounds

Nestled amongst the beautiful Dandenong Ranges and offering excellent facilities and grounds, Nathania Springs gets the very best of both worlds.

Each of the dining room and chapel windows look out onto the lovely fernery and garden surrounds of Nathania Springs, which look equally impressive lit by floodlight and fairy-lights at night, as they do with dappled sunlight shining through the leaves during the day.

Each change of season presents a different and beautiful array of colours in and around the gardens of Nathania Springs.  

Taking a closer look...

You are our only bride & groom, no exceptions
You will never be lining up for photo opportunities or wondering why you don't recognise the guests strolling around the other side of the property! Our focus is solely on you.

Convenience is free
It costs nothing to have your ceremony at Nathania Springs. Whether it's outside in our white timber gazebo, or in our beautiful stained-glass chapel, you and your guests can enjoy the convenience of having everything on-site, at no extra cost.

The chapel houses a gorgeous baby grand digital piano, should you wish to provide a bit of live entertainment during your ceremony, otherwise free use of our resident DJ will make more than sure your ceremony music runs smoothly. The entire ceremony space is fitted with high quality microphones, ensuring all of your guests will hear your "I do's!"

A room for all sizes
The timeless styling of the dining room means that virtually any style of reception will look fantastic. The brick fireplace creates a lovely, cosy spot in winter, while the bay windows make the most of a delightfully cool breeze in summer! Catering for between 80 to 180 guests, the room creates an impressive (and flexible) dining experience.

Furthermore, should your numbers be slightly less than the required 80, we translate the cost difference into credit, which can be used on other Nathania Springs services to further enrich your wedding day, such as our multimedia options.

You didn't say rain, did you?
Unfortunately it's the one thing we can't sell you! But rest assured that should those dark rain clouds lose their way, and find themselves above your wedding - we have our bases covered! The Nathania Springs undercover garden is perfect for capturing those treasured photos with your loved ones, and without the rain. If your ceremony is to be held in the gardens, we will always set the indoor chapel, just in case! And should the truly unthinkable happen - rest easy that we have a reliable backup generator, always at the ready!

Room to indulge
Being the centre of attention all night can maybe be a little overwhelming (maybe!). Should you need a moment to powder your nose, or snatch a quiet word with someone, our delightfully cosy bridal change-room offers you the privacy and exclusivity that you need, but is located just off the main dining room, so you're never too far from the action. This space is a perfect retreat for any members of the bridal party boasting the vintage glamour of Hollywood-style mirrors, adequate seating and a quaint ensuite, with shower, toilet and vanity.

And of course, let's not forget...
There is ample on-site, well-lit parking available for you and your guests, and the venue has full disabled access. Have a look at our venue layout for a good overview of on-site parking available to you.

Our bar is perfectly located in the foyer of the centre, not disrupting the action in the dining room, nor leaving you an your guests unwatered! The dining room, chapel and undercover areas at Nathania Springs are smoke-free.

Printable travel directions and location maps are available from this website, and can be supplied for distribution to your guests in hard copy at no additional charge.

Make sure you check out photos of our new cocktail deck. The sweeping timber structure adds a beautiful, relaxed atmosphere to pre-dinner drinks and savouries with it's spacious cafe-style layout.

Positioned for excellent exposure, but never too difficult to hide away - our large plasma screen is at your disposal for photo slideshows, DVDs, web links, photography packages and more!

You could make history and be our first bride & groom to have the footy on during the wedding! But... we'll leave that decision up to you!
