Elmswood Estate Yarra Valley events
Set in the heart of the Yarra Valley, Elmswood Estate offers a polished, distinctly local setting for corporate events, weddings, private functions, and milestone celebrations. With panoramic vineyard views and a calm, refined atmosphere, it’s the kind of place that leaves a lasting impression. Whether you’re bringing colleagues together or marking a personal milestone, Elmswood Estate makes it feel intentional, atmospheric, and entirely unforgettable.
Host your event on the expansive deck with sweeping vineyard views, take advantage of the covered Terrace for an all-weather option, or choose a more tucked-away outdoor spot amongst the vines. Each space offers its own unique charm and flexibility.
The all-glass Pavilion is the estate’s signature feature: a striking room bathed in natural light with floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the rolling hills beyond. It’s ideal for dinners, presentations, or parties where the setting deserves to be part of the experience.
Melbourne Event Group, Elmswood’s exclusive catering and event partner, brings polished service and thoughtful planning to the table.

Venue Testimonials
Absolutely stunning venue. This winery was perfect for us. What really worked was that they have both indoor (pavilion) and outdoor ceremony settings. The team always had our best interests in mind and were super attentive and very helpful. And the venue was beautiful! So grateful that we have decided to host our wedding at Elmswood.

WOW... The view took our breath away the first time we saw the venue and location. The staff were just as spectacular and really made sure the day was perfectly run so we could enjoy our day. The photos taken around the vines really added the classic feel. The top spot to get married.

Elmswood Estate is a beautiful venue for a wedding. The staff there were terrific. The wedding coordinator and her assistant were both wonderful in the lead-up and on the day. From the moment that I stepped out of the car on the day they were there to help.
