I have only had positive feedback - food, wine and service was all great and the entertainment was non stop and really added to the atmosphere. Everyone had a great time and we have some great photos.
We have a function every year and never have I dealt with such friendly and obliging people.

"THANK YOU so much for a fantastic event on 19 December, it was a great day and the feedback from staff has been very positive. Your staff were so helpful and friendly, it was a pleasure to deal with them. Please pass on our thanks and gratitude to all the staff.
You were completely right - it was one of the best functions we've had, thanks to you, and I was very relaxed myself for the first time ever as you had everything under control. Well done Damian and thank you for making my job easier!
Re Christmas 2009, thank you for thinking about us and giving us the opportunity to pre-book, however we do prefer to move around each year, especially as we have had a beach theme for the past two years now. I'll have to put my thinking cap on because this event will be hard to beat!
I'll definitely be recommending the Beachouse for corporate events and also to my prospective wedding clients (as part of my event management and wedding planning business - ESP Event Management & Wedding Planners). "
Sue Shaw, Minter Ellison - December 2008
"I want to sincerely thank you and your team, for the magnificent job you achieved.
I also want to make a special note of thanks to the Chef. Her flexibility with our timing, and the presentation and quality of food was outstanding.

The next day, my parents were inundated with phone calls from family and friends commenting on the venue itself, the food and the party.
The food was stunning, one of Jason's cousin's is a high class chief in Melbourne and he was very impressed. We have had nothing but excellent feed back. Your staff, what can we say... Nothing was too hard for them either, they had a smile on their faces all night and were also very professional, willing to help where ever possible. You have a great team Damian and should feel very proud to run such a great venue.
From the time we met with you right through to the end, you have been extremely professional and we came to find that nothing was too hard for you. We thoroughly enjoyed all of the dealings that we have had with you / the Beachouse and we will be highly recommending you to all that we know for future functions."

"Dear Damian,
I have only returned to work this week so have been unable to send an email until now. I am Rebecca�s mother!
I would just like to commend you and your staff for your professionalism, attention to detail, the food, service, attentiveness to guests requests, ambience etc etc etc � where do you start or end when everything was soooo PERFECT. I have had so many positive and glowing comments from guests that attended the reception and would like to extend this to you and your staff because people are often quick to criticise but for some reason or another are reluctant to extend praise or heartfelt gratitude. We have not had ONE negative comment!
Every little girl dreams of her wedding day and when the time comes, hopes for perfection on that very special day in her life. Bec and Jason put a lot of thought into their special day and looked forward, in anticipation, to all the things the Beach House had to offer. When they were making arrangements for the reception, I believe The Function had not been open very long. Over the 4 months leading up to the wedding we heard some very positive comments about your facility and service which reassured us that we had made an excellent choice in venue. My husband, Jason�s parents and myself did not get to view the facility prior to the reception and relied on your website and Bec and Jason�s description of the room � we were blown away when we finally made our way to The Function Room. Every guest was kept happy because if they didn�t face the bridal table they had an incredible view of the beach.
Damian you went over and above the call of duty in your role as a host. Bec told me that you spirited her and Jase away for some photos on the Putt Putt course � what a bonus!!!!! The ride on the carousel for the wedding party and immediate family members was a very special treat. Looking around at the expressions on everyone�s faces it brought such joy and I am sure touched the child within us all."
Mother of the bride, Rebecca and Jason, Bride and Groom - April 2008
"The photos that the official photographer took of everyone on that ride will be a very special memory to us all.
The Function Room at the Beach House exceeded ALL our expectations and for that we are truly grateful. We have no hesitation recommending The Function Room to future brides/grooms and people organising special celebrations or functions. Thank you once again for making Bec and Jason�s day so special and memorable."
Debbie Hayes, Clinical Nurse Consultant, Royal Adelaide Hospital
"Myself, my new wife, both our families and friends would all like to commend you on your efforts for our wedding reception held on the 15th of November. The staff were terrific, Misty's efforts in all aspects were exceptional, the chefs food was absolutely delicious and the atmosphere was delightful from beginning to end. It was a moment that will stand out in everyone�s mind forever. Big ups 2 U all!"
Steven and Emi Ulbrich, Bride and Groom - November 2008
"We had such a great night, You, Vicki, Misty and the team did a wonderful job. We�ve had so many guests say it�s the best wedding they�ve ever been too. I�m so glad that pretty much all our guests went on the rides, as most of them didn�t know what we meant by amusements because they where from interstate, so they just loved it."
Amanda Tuckwell, Bride - November 2008
"Thank you the group really enjoyed the venue and the food. The service throughout the day was friendly and very helpful. Well done on coordinating such a professional service.
Vanessa Houltby, Australian Principals - October 2008
�On behalf of Lateral Marketing we would like to thank The Beachouse for making our Optus Family Day such a successful event for Optus staff and their families.
From the waterslides and rides to the arcade games, The Beachouse offered a large range of activities that effectively catered for our large group of 1300 guests and put a smile on the children�s faces for the entire day.
The Beachouse staff were always helpful and friendly and very happy to help in any way possible on the day and in the lead up to the event. No request, big or small, was ever a problem.
Feedback from guests was very positive, with a large number of people requesting to come back to the venue for future family day events. We would not hesitate to recommend this venue to others for family day events.�
Lauren Barnes, Event Manager, Lateral Events , Optus Family Day - Oct 2008
"I had very positive feedback from the team. The food was enjoyed and plentiful. Your control at the start of the Boot Camp got everyone involved straight away and they really had no choice but to join in. The teams understood what they had to do and whilst the teams were mixed (in terms of the people who don�t normally work together) they all very quickly sorted out their strategies and got underway. It was a great way for people to mix, to work as a new team, to plan what they were going to do, to �look outside the square�, to achieve outcomes, and to have fun working together. Your Boot Camp worked very well for us. We appreciate the support from you and your staff. Many thanks.'
David, Manager, SA Water - November 2008
"Your staff were very accommodating and Misty was an excellent point of contact on the day. Your venue was perfect for our needs and we will most likely lock in a date for the same corporate function in November 2009. I will keep in touch with regards to setting up another date.
Thank you again."
Rachel Trimboli, Marketing & Communications Coordinator, Clipsal - November 2008
�Hi Damian,Just a note to let you know what a fabulous job your staff did at our wedding on the 28th of November. Everything was perfect, the staff were so friendly and couldn't do enough for us, the food was divine, the room looked perfect - we couldn't fault a single thing. Misty was wonderful and took care of everything on the night. We wanted our wedding to be one big party and it certainly was!
Thank you for all your help and support in organising everything, referring Remedy to us (who were brilliant) and being such an easy person to deal with."
Sue and Stewart, Bride and Groom - November 2008

And on the night everybody that i have spoken to said the food and service were both fantastic! So thanks for organising such a special night for karl and myself, i will definitely recommend the venue to anyone else i know that gets married!"
Karl and Ally Stephens, Bride and Groom - February 2009
"We would like to congratulate you and your team for contributing to one of the most memorable days of our lives- Amanda and Chris�s wedding day. From the early planning stages when nothing seemed impossible, to the actual day your professionalism, attention to detail and courtesy has been magnificent.
Will you please be sure to pass onto the Chef and her team our sincere thanks for presenting such a wonderful meal to our guests? Her attention to detail and willingness to adjust to Amanda and Chris�s menu desires were most appreciated. Even after the event on Saturday when we called in to collect the usual bits and pieces Chef and her assistant were smiling and happy to assist us in carrying flowers etc from the venue.
Misty and her front of house team are to be congratulated also for their care and excellent service throughout the evening. As you know there was a good proportion of our guests who are in the hospitality industry and we are very pleased to say tat every one of them commented on the very happy, smiling and helpful team that you have at The Function. The communication between your teams and us as the hosts was terrific. It only took some observation and one conversation with Misty to realize that we were in very capable hands and we did not have to worry about anything but just enjoy the evening. This we did!
Damian, our sincere thanks and congratulations once again to you and your team- a job extremely well done. Be assured that all of our eighty guests will be singing the praises of The Function at The Beachouse for a long, long time. I know that Jenny and I will. "
John and Jenny, Parents of the Bride - November 2008
"Thank you just doesn�t seem enough. You made our wedding such a wonderful, memorable occasion which was stress free. You put on a flawless event and we can�t thank you enough. We had the night of our lives because you created it for us. "
Satima and Ross Hutford, Bride and Groom - September 2008
"Andrew and I would like to say thank you for all work that went into making our wedding reception last night such an amazing event.
We have had endless comments on how fantastic the food was, how helpful the staff were and how brilliant the entire function room was. Misty in particular deserves an extra special mention as nothing was too much trouble on the night and she made everything run so smoothly.
We will certainly be raving about The Function to whomever we can as I�m sure our guests will too as they were simply stunned by the brilliance of the night.
Thanks again Damian as your calmness and professionalism made us feel at ease and we will never forget last night!!"
Tara and Andrew, Bride and Groom - January 2009
"Arranging an interstate wedding was a daunting prospect for us both but from the very first conversation, Damian alleviated any fears we had and completely understood the type of atmosphere and wedding we wanted to create � something informal yet elegant and unique.
The entire process was stress free and nothing was too much for Damian and his staff at The Function. From the wait staff dressed in black who served fresh fruit cocktails on the beach straight after our ceremony, through to the informal reception where guests were served platters of delicious breakfast canap�s all the while mingling and enjoying the beautiful beach views, our wedding day completely exceeded all our expectations.
So many of the guests commented on how unique and wonderful the wedding and reception were, how delicious the food was and how it is the best wedding they have ever been to.
Thank you to Damian, the Chef (who adjusted the menu to cater for my gluten free requirements) and the staff for bringing our vision to fruition. Your creativity, professionalism and humour was appreciated and meant that all we had to do on the day was just enjoy celebrating with our family and friends."
Jason and Dayle, Bride and Groom - December 2008
