Ravella

About Ravella

Ravella occupies a building at 48 Watt Street in Newcastle that dates back to 1905 and was brought back to life as an event venue. It runs as an all-inclusive wedding and function venue, and every booking takes the whole place, so there are no other parties sharing the building. The venue is made up of three connected spaces holding up to 200 guests in total. The Atrium is the arrival space, full of daylight, and leads guests through to the Grand Hall, the main dining room, with herringbone floors, crystal chandeliers and draped curtains. From there the night moves into the Cocktail Bar, a darker, more intimate room with a lowered ceiling hung with colour-changing lanterns and a full bar. Couples can hold the ceremony, canapes and reception all on site, and furniture is part of the package, though hosts can bring extra pieces or a stylist. Catering is handled exclusively in-house by Alfie's Italian. Canape menus run from classic to substantial, and seated options include a shared Italian banquet and a two or three-course alternate drop, with food stations such as gnocchi, pizza and a gelato cart as extras. Drinks are offered as an hourly package with optional upgrades, on consumption with a bar tab limit, or paid by guests. Separate catering and beverage minimum spends apply and are lower from Sunday to Thursday. Beyond weddings, Ravella takes corporate functions and private celebrations, and offers reduced rates midweek and in selected winter months.
