Recent Testaments
I attended a function at the Stables yesterday – the second time I’ve visited. I just wanted to tell you that again the experience was stunning and to let you know that I appreciate the effort it takes from every team member to create such an experience. The grounds, food, service, and decorations, … all without fault. Keep doing what you’re doing. It’s absolutely amazing.
I'm writing to say that Saturday was absolutely magic. Your staff members were truly delightful, and the day couldn't have gone any better. Not to mention the food either, which was absolutely outstanding. I would to sincerely thank you, for all of your time throughout the planning element, it was such a pleasure to have you assist through the whole process. Once again, thank you, thank you!!

EXCEPTIONAL!!!
Our 50th Anniversary Celebration - with a quick wedding thrown in for fun - was wonderful and memorable, and happy.
It was everything we had hoped for, and more.
We, and all our guests, were so impressed by every aspect of Stones’ contribution to our wonderful evening.
Ilaria is an absolute gem. She managed to make the event appear seamless. It just happened. But, under the surface, she was peddling like mad to keep it all on track. We didn’t mean to make it hard for her. But the bus with our guests got stuck in a freeway accident. After our wedding, the guests caused a similar “traffic jam” in the Warehouse. Not even the sun went down on time. Ilaria stayed calm when I didn’t. She wove magic with the kitchen. Her serving staff stayed friendly and attentive. It was impressive.
And then there was Rebecca, who was a delight to work with all the time. Friendly, practical and efficient, with good advice when it mattered. She made it easy. She made it work.
Teesha’s floral decor was absolutely spectacular. As they entered the Warehouse, our guests were stunned by those massive strands of tropical foliage and flowers. Beautiful, and creative.
My lasting impression was that everything was better than I’d expected it to be. I expected it to be pretty good, and I have high standards. But, across every aspect of your delivery, Stone’s performed to a level above. In addition to the “levels above” that I’ve already highlighted above, I must also mention the quality of the food (yes, that most important aspect). Terrific menus and recipes, of course, with quality produce. But also, despite the chaos we were causing in the kitchen.…perfectly cooked, perfectly presented, perfect portions. And that was true of every course. That’s a class act.
To close, I’d like to share with you comments from emails from two of our guests, which typify their appreciation of Stone’s crucial contribution to the success of our evening:
"Wow! …. what a wonderful occasion last night to celebrate your 50 years together with your family and friends at the beautiful Meletos in the Yarra Valley. Meletos was stunning - the food, decor and beautiful location”.
"The venue did a splendid job of feeding me according to my dietary needs, which is a very rare occurrence when I eat out and really only happens in the very best of establishments”.
As I hope you can tell, we could not have been more thrilled with Stones. You were EXCEPTIONAL. Thank you indeed!!!
“This is a very belated email to thank you for what was a very successful “Baby Boomer Lunch” on the occasion of our 60th Birthdays. Stones of the Yarra Vally was the perfect venue for our function, and we were so lucky to have such a lovely sunny and warm day. The planning, presentation, service, and menu prepared by Paul was fabulous!! Please pass on our thanks and gratitude, I am only sorry I did not meet him and thank him personally as time and my attention to our guests was taken away from me. Thank you again for the wonderful professional service, stunning venue for a very memorable day” - Geraldine and Dean Holmes
“I wanted to pass on a big thank you for organising such a wonderful Christmas lunch for our team, we have received so many emails and positive comments about the day, which is just great to hear! It’s been such a busy year so it was such a treat to head out to somewhere so special. Also I have to say the food was absolutely amazing!” - Rosalie, Australia Post
“Just wanted to thank you and the team at Stones for the dinner held in the Stables last night. Everything went perfectly and everyone is talking about how beautiful the place was and the delicious wine and food” - Barb, Kraft Foods
“I just wanted to thank you and all the wonderful staff you have at Stones. I had a wonderful evening on my birthday and so did our guests. I truly appreciate all the trouble taken to organize it and the excellent service on the day. The venue and setting were magical, the food divine, the service exceptional and I could not have asked for a better night” - Tania
