Thank you Brisbane City Celebrants for sharing this wonderful article on Brisbane Wedding Venues…
Having being a part of hundreds of weddings in Brisbane over many years, Brisbane Celebrants Jamie + Cara of Brisbane City Celebrants know Brisbane’s wedding venues extremely well, so today they are taking you on a virtual tour of some of Brisbane’s stunning venues.
In no particular order, beginning the tour on the edge of Brisbane’s CBD in Herston is Victoria Park. This centrally located venue 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 delicious food, service and complimentary parking.

Conveniently centrally located in Fortitude Valley, foodies are cueing up to experience the flame cooked seasonal menu designed by the Head chef utilising fresh locally sourced ingredients. City Winery offers couples the opportunity for indoor wedding ceremonies alongside a wall of wine barrels, followed by a cocktail or sit-down reception all with the ultimate in ambiance and a five-star service from the entire City Winery team.
Just a few steps down and we arrive at The Calile Hotel. This beautiful neutral toned urban oasis, also 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.

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!
Heading towards the City we reach 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 event 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 its old 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 – so romantic and perfect for an elegant ceremony followed by cocktail hour celebrations, before moving to Room 360 for evening celebrations with panoramic views of the city as the sun sets.
Continuing up the river and we reach our final destination on our tour of Brisbane wedding venues, W Hotel.

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. Plus this is actually a dog friendly hotel, which means your beloved pooch can join you at you ceremony and can even play ring bearer should you wish.
We hope this gave you some ideas of venues to explore. We highly recommend booking an appointment with any of these wedding venues for a guided tour and to learn what they can do for you.
Being the Celebrant, we are usually the first to arrive on the day, so we get to experience how organised, professional and passionate the venue wedding coordinator is on the day, from before the ceremony starts to after the ceremony, when drinks are flowing and canapes are being devoured and we have experienced the highest level of service at these wedding venues.
Wishing you all the best with finding your perfect wedding venue, and don’t forget to contact us (the Celebrant) to secure your date, once your venue has been confirmed.
