Your Guide to Hiring Unique Wedding Venues in Brisbane
Brisbane is a very exciting city that rocks a great balance between the natural beauty of its location and the wonders that a modern city can hold. What does this mean? You will have a great range of choices for your unique wedding. Start your search by considering some of the unusual venues on offer in the city.
The Gallery of Modern Art in the city’s cultural precinct, for example, can offer a truly exciting visual backdrop for your wedding. Also take a look at the Brisbane Powerhouse in New Farm, this repurposed and cool pre-war industrial power station offers a unique customizable space with a turn of the century atmosphere.
If you are searching for more of a heritage wedding venue, consider the Customs House, with its old world charm, views of the Brisbane River and convenient location in the CBD. You might also search in Fortitude Valley, where you can find High Church for a truly memorable and customisable venue, or maybe consider a 1905 warehouse. Or if you can consider a jaunt outside the city, take a look at the beautiful private estate of Jimbour with its chapel built in 1868 and lush private grounds for a reception.
If you are searching for a beautiful and one of a kind outdoor venue, consider one of the city’s many parks, such as D’Aguilar National Park, just 12 km from the CBD and offering a range of wedding packages. Or else look at the City Botanical Gardens which are conveniently located in downtown, and offer a unique selection of outdoor locations for a wedding to remember
