When I first began preparing our wedding I was looking for something different for our venue. We…read morewere planning to have our outdoor wedding ceremony and a reception on my parent's property and so I began the painful process of looking for a marquee for the reception. Most were typical, white plastic with windows cut out and draping material offered. I definitely knew that was not what we were looking for. As I began to search more and google was offering things like Yurts or giant plastic overthrow sheets...we came across Katalane! I was SO excited when we found them; they were exactly what we were looking for. Something fresh, unique and striking. We knew it would make the perfect addition to our wedding. Katalane was very helpful from the very first email enquiry I sent. David got back to me very quickly with suggestions, prices, seating charts and more. As the day got closer he offered advice on decoration, arranged seating and was willing to answer any little questions I asked. David was extremely helpful, competent and understanding, making the lead up to our wedding day a lot less stressful. The company even made furniture just in time for our wedding, as we were unable to find this beautiful wooden furniture anywhere else. The day before the wedding, David and his team arrived to set up our wedding tipi. It was really exciting to see it all come together and it looked absolutely beautiful in the bush and suited our wedding theme and decorations perfectly. David went above and beyond, also letting us borrow some fairy lights, which looked beautiful around the edge of the tipi. On our wedding day, our guests and we absolutely loved the tipi. People couldn't believe it and kept asking where we had hired it. It really made our day special. For the reception, the tipi had a cozy, comfortable and warm atmosphere, which really added to the vibe of the evening. The wooden furniture was perfect and guests loved sitting on the bench seats in the marquee. It was a magical day in a magical venue. I couldn't recommend Katalane highly enough. They were fantastic and the Tipi-style marquee was amazing. 10 out of 10

BEWARE! I booked this for my wedding, 4 hour package for $700. After about 1.5hrs the machine…read morebroke down and we were told it would be fixed in 5 mins. Half an hour later it was working again, but then broke down shortly after. i would estimate it was broken for almost half the night. Everytime i grabbed a friend to get photos with, i was told '5 mins'. They only got it working again just before midnight so i could get one photo with my husband before they left. After 2 months and 5 harassing emails later, I eventually received the disk of the photos that were taken. A loose disk arrived in a postpak, no case, no label to indicate what it was. I can only assume the disk held most of the photos because i know of at least one photo from the night that was not on the disk. Stay right away, even if they are a little bit cheaper than some other companies, its not worth it if the machine will be broken for half the night.

It was quite a task to organise as I had never done anything like this before. I was given a budget and set a job to cater to one hundred guests which seemed very daunting at the time. I used a local business in Smithfield called Party Hire Group. The staff were really helpful and explained everything I would need, from a marquee, to chairs, tables, sound, lighting and entertainment. They took the time to discuss the different options available and what products suited our type of event and what I would need to hire to make the party a success. Their prices were great and the delivery and set up was flexible to our requriements. It made it easy to deal with a friendly team and their range of different party hire products made it easy as I was able to get most of the things we needed at the one place. Overall it was a great experience dealing with them and I would recommend them to others who might get thrown in the deep end and have to organise a party.

Never have I been so appalled at the lack of organisation, helpfulness and sheer friendliness of a…read moreparty venue. I had my daughters 2nd birthday party at Ultimate today, and the rudeness started from the moment we entered the building. I arrived early (15 minutes) to set up (arranged previously and apparently not an issue).. But instead of being greeted with good morning, the staff member grunted, "we don't open until 10". I was eventually directed to our party area, which was clearly in a shambles from a party the previous day. I had to rearrange the tables and chairs and rip down all the banners and signs from the previous party. All my guests arrived and the party got underway. 1 hour 20mins after the party started I was still waiting on the water/cordial (included with party) to arrive. The kids were thirsty from running around, and getting my hands on water seemed like the most difficult task of the day thus far. After asking 3 times, I attended the cafe counter to chase it up, only to be rudely advised that I should ask my party host. I had a party host??? Nobody introduced themselves as my party host, nobody introduced themselves full stop. We were pointed in the direction of our party area and that was the end of the interaction with staff. I had also ordered adult platters for the party. I had a large amount of adults due to it being a toddler party, and kids requiring adult supervision. I only received the cheese platter, which I was absolutely gobsmacked at how small it was for $40! Certainly not what I envisioned. I had also ordered wraps, but no idea what the actual story was behind their failure to be delivered to my party, as I received 4 different stories (excuses) from 3 different staff members. 1. We are Making the wraps now and they'll be out shortly. 2. The cafe that delivers our wraps didn't turn up 3. We ran out of wraps 4. (This is the clincher) I've been on the coffee machine all day and didn't have time to make your wraps!!!!!! So I book in a party 3 months in advance, pay per head and pay for adult platters as I'm STRICLY NOT ALLOWED to bring food into the venue, and your staff member/s were too busy making coffee (coffee?) to provide the pre-ordered food to my party!!!??? Absolutely atrocious!! Furthermore, no one bothered to advise me that the wraps weren't coming, we had to chase them up 20 minutes before the party was over as we wanted to cut the cake and have everyone fed beforehand. I didn't receive an apology, not a smile, nothing. Just a too bad and here's your platter refund. And just to top off an already fabulous day, a staff member came to shoo us out of the party area (fair enough as it was past 12pm), but instead of a nice, "hey guys, just letting you know your party is over could you please vacate the area," I was told we needed to get out as another party was starting in 10 minutes. Well let me tell you, when I finally drove off from the venue over an hour later, there was no party happening in that room. A little bit of plain old honesty would have done the trick. Unfortunately I had to apologise to my guests for the lack of food and organisation. It reflected really poorly on me when the kids were all asking for water and no amount of asking your staff, could get drinking water for toddlers. I understand there can be hiccups, But today was simply a joke. I spent the whole party completely stressed out, which is ironic considering I chose to have the party at ultimate so it would be easy and stress-free. The kids had a great time playing (of course) but that's where the fun ended. Renee
