Jean makes designer clothes for the individual in all sizes. She made my "mother of the groom" outfit for me. Lots of styles, fabrics and colours to choose from. Looked great on the day. Didn't take long to make.

Approximate cost: $300

Beautiful flowers for all the bridal party and the reception. All expertly done. Very reasonably priced compared with other quotes we got. Also got in flowers specially on request.

We hired the suits for my son's wedding here. Jovan was extremely helpful and gave us a good price. There were plenty of styles to choose from with matching accessories. He also made times to suit us for fittings etc.

My son & his wife were married at Devine Function Centre in the lovely rose garden and had their reception there. The staff there bent over backwards to assist and make it a wonderful occasion. Nothing was too much trouble for them on the day.

Approximate cost: $5500

This is the closest to home cooking you will find. Menu is Mediterranean style with dishes from Greece, Italy, and Turkey with some modern Australian thrown in for good measure. The moussaka is to die for!! The food is delicious with all fresh ingredients and good sized servings. Also very tasty desserts and coffee. BYO. All dishes are also available as takeaway. Service is very friendly and welcoming. Prices are very reasonable too.

Approximate cost: $15-$22

This cafe is run by a lovely young couple. The menu is modern Australian, with great choice and also caters for gluten free. I had the best meal (dinner) there that I have had in a long time. Service is good and superb coffee. Breakfasts are also delicious and good value. It is licensed with a good choice of local and interstate wines.

Approximate cost: $20 - $25

Fantastic. Always very helpful. Will even adapt recipes to suit a gluten free diet if necessary. Great food, fabulous service. Very welcoming staff. Good wine list. They even have children's chopsticks.
