The Best Wedding Venues in Brisbane
Having being a part of hundreds of weddings in Brisbane over the years, we know Brisbane’s wedding venues extremely well, and of the many venues we’ve been fortunate enough to experience, the following venues truly shine and absolutely deserve to be recognised amongst the best wedding venues in Brisbane.
The following Brisbane wedding venues are known for going above and beyond to ensure everything goes smoothly and their couples have the best day. So in no particular order, here goes:
Victoria Park – Centrally situated on the outskirts of Brisbane CBD in Herston, Victoria Park offers 6 unique event spaces to choose from, each with a stunning ceremony space and sweeping views of the City which is breathtaking by day and by night as the city lights glow. Wedding guests will greatly appreciate the food, service and free parking.
With a dedicated team of Wedding Coordinators, who will make sure every little detail is as planned and everything goes seamlessly on the day, from ensuring the grooms boutonnieres are straight to cueing the bridesmaids went to start walking down the aisle, this highly experienced team have well and truly got you covered for a picturesque wedding venue with impeccable service.
The Calile Hotel – This beautiful pastel themed hotel located in the James Street precinct of Fortitude Valley is a highly rated hotel with thoughtfully designed contemporary function spaces, that suit both wedding ceremonies and receptions.
Offering unique function spaces, with both indoor and outdoor terrace spaces, a rooftop space with sweeping views of Brisbane City, and even a unique amphitheatre, with inbuilt seating for wedding guests.
Being a hotel, The Calile can also accommodate all your guests, giving you those destination wedding vibes (even if you are locals) as you relax around the pool with your crew on the days leading up to or after your wedding, and don’t forget the onsite spa for that pre wedding pampering!
QUT Venue Collection – Old Government House
Centrally located beside Brisbane’s City Botanic Gardens, QUT venue collection includes a stunning variety of unique venues.
With it’s vintage charm, Old Government House is a popular choice for couples to wed. Offering a variety of unique ceremony locations, in and around the building, with wet weather sites and a classical piano available for use if required.
We are particularly fond of the private open-air courtyard with gorgeous sandstone brick walls. Perfect for an elegant ceremony followed by cocktail hour celebrations.
W Hotel Brisbane – This funky new Hotel in the heart of Brisbane’s CBD is the ultimate venue for couples looking for a modern, bright and fun space, with a variety of function rooms and spaces, from non-traditional ball rooms, through to penthouse suites with floor to ceiling windows all with a luxury meets contemporary vibe.
The staff at W Hotel are brimming with enthusiasm and will totally share in your excitement of the day, while sharing their vision and ideas. Oh and did you know this is actually a dog friendly hotel, which means your beloved pooch can join you at you ceremony and play ring bearer if you wish.
Howard Smith Wharves – This venue has been a game changer for the events industry in Brisbane. Located on the historical riverfront site in Brisbane City with the Story bridge soaring directly over the complex and a river frontage rivalled to none.
Offering a choice of 12 venue spaces, designed to cater for 10-1000+ guests, Howard Smith Wharves has the perfect venue for the smallest most intimate wedding through to the grandest of celebrations.
With an abundance of photo opportunities on hand, your Photographer will be in their element at Howard Smith Wharves.
The Warehouse – Fresh to the Brisbane wedding scene, yet full of charm and character, The Warehouse is a beautiful old building that has recently been refurbished designed to host bespoke celebrations, with a grand indoor event space, and an open-air rooftop which we think is the perfect spot for a wedding ceremony and intimate reception, or for larger groups, the grand loft style function space with exposed brick walls feels so warm and inviting.
