Russo Estate

A Brief of Russo Estate

If you’re looking for a wedding venue that combines a rustic feel with modern elegance and luxury, this is it. The family owned and operated Russo Estate is situated in Digger’s Rest just 40 minutes from Melbourne CBD, for the perfect wedding venue just a stone’s throw away from the city.

As a Melbourne wedding photographer, I love the Russo Estate, because it is surrounded by panoramic views of nature, wildlife, mountains, grasses, and wetlands that create a stunning backdrop from every angle.

The Russo Estate and vineyard offers a range of venue options on one site, ranging from outdoor arches and marquees overlooking the estate’s waterfall to indoor reception spaces – all of which are designed to maximize natural light and take in the natural surroundings. There are even nine luxury domes on-site, so you won’t even need to travel to the venue! The Russo Estate really does have everything all in the one place.

All of the estate’s ceremony and reception venues have been designed to take full advantage of their natural surroundings, creating the perfect backdrop for all kinds of photo opportunities. At Russo Estate, you’re guaranteed to get that perfect shot!

Russo Estate Reviews (4.1 stars)

“We could not have picked a more beautiful place to have our wedding earlier this year. Our wedding here was 3 years in the making due to the Covid lock down but was everything we dreamed of. The food was amazing, the landscape is just breathtaking, the wine is divine, and the staff were just all-round amazing. – Connie

“We had our dream wedding day at Russo Estate! Russo were easy to deal with in the lead-up and made a postponement due to Covid a lot less stressful than it could have been! Everything on the day went absolutely perfectly, we couldn’t fault a single thing. The food was delicious and the views were just stunning – we had so many guests comment on how beautiful the landscape was, and it looks amazing in our Melbourne wedding video! We also stayed in the domes the night of the wedding and they were just beautiful. Would definitely recommend Russo Estate for a stress-free dream wedding.” – Loren

“We loved our wedding day at Russo Estate – it was a truly dream come true! Everything was incredible and the staff at Russo Estate went above and beyond to make sure our day was flawless.
