Wedding FAQs

Can we have our ceremony and reception at Wharf Events?

Yes. You can hold both in the one place, so there are no transfers between venues. Our team will take you through ceremony set-ups when you enquire.

How many guests can you fit?

The full venue seats 180 at round tables or 250 for a cocktail reception. For smaller weddings, sectional hire suits 20 to 80. All capacities allow for a dance floor.

Can we have live music or a DJ?

Absolutely. Bands, solo performers, acoustic duos and DJs all work well here, and the venue’s sound system is set up for live entertainment.

Is there a dance floor?

Yes. There’s a dance floor in the room at no extra cost, and we’ll set it up to suit your layout.

Do you host a menu tasting?

Yes. Once your wedding is booked, you’re invited to one of our group menu tastings, held throughout the year. The cost is set by our executive chef, and fees apply for extra guests.

What time do weddings finish?

The venue is licensed until midnight, so the celebrations can run right up until then.

When do we lock in the final details?

About two weeks before the day. You’ll meet your coordinator in person or on Zoom to run through everything from arrival to farewell.

Is the venue wheelchair accessible?

Yes, the venue is wheelchair accessible.

Is there parking?

The Wharf precinct has limited free parking with time limits, and ParknGo Central, on the corner of Smith and First Avenue, is a short walk away. It’s open 24 hours, with charges after 4 hours. It’s worth passing this on to your guests before the day.

Can we bring our own suppliers?

Yes. We have trusted preferred suppliers for flowers, photography, entertainment and styling, and we’ll consider your own suppliers with prior approval.
