Themed Dinner Parties

An Intimate Spanish Fiesta in the Boardroom
Recently, our boardroom was transformed into a warm and inviting dining space for an intimate Spanish dinner party. This small venue hire option proved perfect for the occasion, with rich red velvet table runners, black lace accents, vibrant yellow flowers and the glow of candlelight creating an atmosphere that was both stylish and welcoming. Spanish music and scenic backdrops completed the setting, transporting guests straight to the Mediterranean.
The menu was a true celebration of Spanish flavours. Guests began with refreshing gazpacho shots, delicate slices of jamón and a colourful grilled vegetable platter. The main feast featured chorizo chicken and vegetable skewers, garlic prawns, grilled lamb chops with Spanish blue cheese polenta, and a show-stopping seafood paella. Accompaniments of patatas bravas with saffron aioli, stuffed eggplant and chickpea salad added depth and variety, while desserts of golden churros with chocolate sauce and silky crema catalana offered a sweet finish.
It was more than a meal, it was an experience. Music, themed styling and shared plates created a sense of connection, lightening the mood and satisfying appetites before the formalities of the evening began.
This Spanish Fiesta is just one of the many themed dining experiences available through our function venue hire in Frankston. Whether it’s the earthy flavours of an Aussie Bush Banquet, the indulgence of an Italian Feast, the bustle of an Oriental Hawkers Market, or the spice and vibrancy of an Indian Banquet, our team can design a menu and atmosphere to suit your occasion.
The options are only limited by your imagination – or ours! From indulgent desserts to global flavours, here are just a few themed dining experiences we can bring to life:
