Victoria and her team at Alto went above and beyond to make our wedding reception everything we wished it to be. Nothing was a problem throughout the entire planning process. The food, staff and service was all class and I cannot recommend them enough.Victoria and her team at Alto went above and beyond to make our wedding reception everything we wished it to be.

Amazing Wedding Venue: Alto August 2022Amazing Wedding Venue: Alto August 2022
We had our wedding at Alto in August 2022. Vicki, Caroline and the Damm Fine Food team were such a joy to work with in the leadup to our wedding and on the day. They made the process easy and stress-free, and the day went off without a hitch. The space looked absolutely incredible - it was everything we hoped it would be. And to top it all off, the food was amazing. We can't thank them enough! Photos by Tin Drum PhotographyWe had our wedding at Alto in August 2022.

ALTO: Perfect Wedding Venue in CBDALTO: Perfect Wedding Venue in CBD
As soon as we stepped into ALTO for the first time, we knew it would be perfect for our wedding. The Melbourne CBD backdrop creates such an awesome atmosphere, and this is complemented by the intimate, modern and classy nature of this venue. Words cannot describe how amazing the ALTO staff were, both leading up to the wedding, and also on the day. Planning a wedding throughout a global pandemic is not an easy task, and yet the ALTO staff were absolutely incredible throughout the whole process.As soon as we stepped into ALTO for the first time, we knew it would be perfect for our wedding.
