Yarra Valley Wedding Venue

Fondata 1872, a rustic Italian Restaurant , held the most memorable day of our lives. On our big day Fondata 1872, a country wedding venue, was faultless in everyway. From the grounds looking perfectly maintained, to the staff having a genuine love to attentive hospitality. The delicious food and wine (still a talking point amongst friends). Our Wedding Day at Fondata was more than we ever dreamt it could be, it was unflawed! We are looking forward to spending many anniversaries here to celebrate and remember our perfect day!

We recently celebrated our wedding at Fondata 1872 and couldn’t be happier with the experience. With 46 of our closest family and friends, we had a small, intimate ceremony held outdoors, followed by a sit-down reception in the beautiful Weller’s Room. The food was absolutely divine, and the service from the staff was exceptional—everything was timed perfectly, and our guests were well looked after throughout the evening. A special thank you to Sam, the incredible event manager at Fondata. From the very beginning of our wedding planning journey right through to the big day, she was responsive, supportive, and an absolute joy to work with. Her guidance made the entire process smooth and stress-free. We wholeheartedly recommend Fondata 1872 for weddings and special events. The venue, the food, the team—everything was perfect.

We had our wedding at fondata in November and Sam and her team were absolutely amazing to deal with both leading up to and also on the day. The whole team make the day so easy and unforgettable. Everything was taken care of so we had no stresses on the big day. The food is just an added bonus since it is incredible. Such a great venue if you are looking for a rustic country vibe to your day.
