Ivory Pavilion is a refined and contemporary wedding and events venue set within the picturesque surrounds of the Buninyong Golf Course in Victoria, Australia. Conceived as a modern country escape, the venue balances understated luxury with the calm beauty of its natural setting, offering sweeping views across rolling hills, open skies, and immaculately maintained golf greens. This unique combination makes Ivory Pavilion a sought-after destination for couples looking to escape the city while still enjoying a polished, design-forward space.
Vision & Founders
The venue was founded by Alyssa and Travis, a creative duo who also operate a successful photography and film business. Through years of working closely with couples on their wedding days, they identified a need for a venue that was not only visually striking but also flexible, functional, and couple-focused. Ivory Pavilion was created to allow couples to fully express their vision, rather than feeling constrained by rigid layouts or prescriptive styling rules.
Design & Aesthetic
Ivory Pavilion’s interiors are intentionally minimal yet elegant, designed to act as a versatile canvas for a wide range of wedding and event styles. Key design features include:
-
Soaring high ceilings that enhance light and space
-
Large black-framed windows framing the surrounding landscape
-
Crisp white walls paired with soft grey flooring
-
Sparkling crystal chandeliers that add a touch of glamour
This balance of clean lines and refined details allows the venue to effortlessly suit themes such as Industrial Chic, High Glamour, Modern Minimal, and Rustic Elegance, with minimal styling required to achieve a high-end result.
Event Spaces & Capacity
Ivory Pavilion offers two thoughtfully designed event spaces:
-
The Grand Room – ideal for larger celebrations, featuring an open layout perfect for seated receptions, dancing, and statement styling.
-
The Cocktail Lounge – a more intimate space suited to pre-dinner drinks, smaller gatherings, or relaxed cocktail-style events.
The venue can accommodate up to 150 guests for seated receptions and up to 200 guests for cocktail-style events, making it suitable for both intimate weddings and larger celebrations.
Ceremonies & Flexibility
Couples have the option to host their ceremony outdoors, set against the natural beauty of the golf course, or indoors within the pavilion, ensuring flexibility in all seasons and weather conditions. This adaptability is a key strength of the venue and a major draw for couples planning from regional or interstate locations.
Packages & Support
Ivory Pavilion operates with tailored, all-inclusive packages, designed to reduce stress while still allowing personalisation. These packages may include:
-
Catering options
-
Furniture and décor
-
Entertainment coordination
-
Access to trusted local suppliers
An experienced on-site coordinator is also provided, ensuring smooth logistics and professional support throughout planning and on the event day itself.
Reputation & Journey
While the venue faced early challenges during its development phase—particularly around planning approvals—it has since emerged as a premium event destination in regional Victoria. Today, Ivory Pavilion is recognised for its attention to detail, calm atmosphere, and ability to deliver memorable, well-executed events in a peaceful yet luxurious setting.
