Olinda Tea House Review (4.9 Stars)

James: Hosted my wedding ceremony and reception in the main room of Olinda Tea House. The natural grounds are beautiful, the interior was set up exactly how we were hoping with room for our personal decorations, and the food was delicious. We styled the reception as a high tea, with canapés, sweets, teas and mocktails. The staff at Olinda Tea House did a great job at making sure everyone was catered too, especially those with dietary requirements. Our Dandenong wedding photographer also captured plenty of stunning wedding photos of us. Big thank you to Rebecca aka the wedding superwoman and the rest of the team at Olinda Tea House for hosting and making it such a wonderful day.
