we’re ready to cater for indoor receptions too.
Ideally located in the heart of Epping, Manor on High holds the key to your dream wedding experience. We proudly host more than 300 joyous wedding events annually, reinforcing our standing as a premier wedding reception venue in Melbourne.
When envisioning your dream wedding, several factors come into play that directly impact your budget. Understanding these aspects can assist in crafting an unforgettable event that not only aligns with your personal style but also comfortably fits within your budget.
Ponder over the size of your celebration, as the number of guests directly impacts your overall costs. Each attendee contributes to your expense tally, influencing not only the menu and beverages but also the requirement for table settings, centrepieces, and keepsakes (to name a few). Therefore, consider your willingness to allocate a specific budget per guest. The range of expenditure can widely vary – some couples might lavish $750-$1,000+ per guest, while others may prefer a more modest $150-$300 budget. At Manor On High, we are committed to tailoring celebrations that suit all budgets and tastes.
No two weddings are alike – while some couples find comfort in ready-to-go packages, others yearn for a distinct influence in every detail. We, at Manor On High, take pride in accommodating all inclinations. Nevertheless, remember that different aesthetics come with varying price tags. The craving for customization, whether it be hand-torn, hand-cut, hand-drawn, or hand-sewn, will consequently inflate your costs.
Your budget might experience significant shifts depending on your personal style and the unique elements you wish to incorporate. A laid-back afternoon celebration peppered with thoughtful, personalised accents bears a distinct charm and cost when compared to an opulent evening black-tie event. Consider your usual at-home entertaining style and preferences. Are you more of a laid-back, pizza and beer type, or do you lean towards extravagant celebrations? Your personal taste will naturally play a significant role in your budget considerations.
The time of day for your wedding can alter both the ambiance and the cost of your event. Morning ceremonies followed by a brunch or lunch reception carry a different vibe and cost structure compared to evening black-tie affairs. Typically, daytime events exude a more casual feel and therefore, may be less costly. Exceptions exist, of course. An exquisite garden wedding brimming with champagne and overflowing flowers can still carry a hefty price tag. However, generally, evening affairs, due to their formal nature, can come with a higher cost.
Time of year plays a role as well, with peak season celebrations (spring/summer) and public holiday weddings usually reflecting a higher cost.
Manor on High stands out from other wedding venues due to our commitment to crafting packages tailored to your budgetary needs and unique desires. We believe every wedding is a distinct affair, a belief that moves us away from providing fixed wedding packages.
Our cost structure encompasses all your event requirements, providing a comprehensive package determined by your specific needs. As you plan your wedding at Manor On High, various factors will influence your budget, including:
– The number of courses you desire for your meal

– Whether canapes will be part of your reception menu
