The local setting
Match the cake to the reception.
Toorak is one of Melbourne's most prestigious addresses, largely heritage mansions and tree-lined private streets rather than a strip of dedicated wedding venues, so most weddings land at a nearby reception venue, a hotel, or a private home or marquee. Como House and Garden sits on the South Yarra side close by and is a well-known heritage option, while many Toorak weddings are held at the family home with a marquee. Pass on the exact reception address: a home or garden setup gives us no loading dock or back-of-house lift to work from.
