The former home of Dame Nellie Melba, located in the Yarra Valley in Victoria – Coombe – The Melba Estate is available for weddings and events. Set in seven acres of magnificent gardens, with a 180 year old English oak, this wedding venue offers the historic clock tower restaurant and estate grown produce, Coombe farm wine and a myriad of photograph opportunities all wrapped up in an elegant and very unique bow.

We asked Georgia of Coombe – The Melba Estate five questions in five minutes:

What is your favourite after five drink?

I will never be able to pass up an Expresso Martini but of late I’m partial to Vodka, soda with a slice of lime and mint leaf.

Your favourite weekend getaway?

Torquay.

Favourite restaurant?

Chin Chin! I don’t care about the line, I don’t care they don’t take bookings – I am never disappointed and their Kingfish sashimi is worth the wait!

What can we find you eating for breakfast on a Sunday morning?

Fruits of Passion in Kensington, awesome coffee and the fiancée’s favourite, eggs benedict with hash browns instead of toast is to die for!

Your favourite wedding story?

A couple came to me with just 6 weeks till their planned wedding date as their venue had cancelled. Being able to help them and then watch their day unfold more perfectly than they could of imagined made my heart melt.
