After searching multiple venues to have our wedding celebrations, Naresh and his team at Grand Star were the ones we chose purely of their service levels provided - We haven't officially locked them in at the time and they were very accommodating and made us feel welcome.

Service and trust were the main things we were looking for, only for the team to go above and beyond and went far over our expectations in how they designed our night. Absolutely picture perfect and could have not had it any better.

The point of difference in our opinion is that Naresh was able to come up with solutions to our own personal situation and didn't question any of our requests - he genuinely wanted to help out any way he could.

Naresh and the team at Grand Star have now found a returning customer for years and years to come for any of our future events.

This is an excellent venue as I have attended many receptions of friends and family members here at the Grand Star. It is always a fantastic place to visit. Naresh and Marie manage it very well with professionalism, patience and kindness.

I would recommend Grand star to anyone looking to book an event locally in the western suburbs.

We recently had the pleasure of hosting an event at Grand Star Reception, and couldn't be more pleased with our experience. The venue itself is stunning, with beautiful lighting that creates the perfect ambiance for any occasion. The staff were incredibly accommodating, especially the person in charge. They were understanding and made sure to handle all of our last-minute changes with ease, which really took the stress out of planning. Overall, the event went off without a hitch, and I highly recommend Grand Star Reception for anyone looking for a beautiful and flexible venue.
