We know planning can be stressful, that’s why we’re here to help
Once you’ve chosen your preferred date and the catering package that suits you best, the team will talk you through approximate spends across planning, styling, floristry, design, stationery and signage, and photography and videography to meet the minimum spend.
This is extremely flexible and is tailored to your individual requirements from our following experience brands:
Nudo: Food and beverage
The Goodsmiths: Planning, styling and design
Anatomy of Flowers: Floristry
Art of Grace: Photography and Videography
Your package selection (e.g. catering package, if your ceremony is onsite etc.) will ascertain the amount of hours you have access to the venue. Your booking duration is inclusive of two hours set up and one hour pack down. Below are examples of full allocations.

This includes two (2) hours for set up, event start time of 9.00am, event conclusion at 12.00pm and event pack down complete by 1.00pm.

Our in-house caterers are experts in event dining experiences. The team at Nudo will put together a custom catering proposal based on your brief, and this allocation will go towards your date’s minimum spend. We do allow external caterers so long as the minimum spend is still met. We also offer several cultural menus, so please let us know if this is something you need so we can include this in your quote (after your site inspection of our venue.) BYO alcohol is allowed in small amounts in addition to our catering packages, so please let the team know if this is something you are considering.
This is not an issue, so long as you still meet the minimum spend requirement for your chosen event date. If you have chosen to include planning and styling services, those will be locked in at the time of your booking to ensure that you are matched with the appropriate team and enjoy a seamless planning journey. However, all other aspects of your quote can be adjusted and revised throughout the process.

If you book a planner and stylist from The Goodsmiths, your event experience will be curated to be unique and tailored specifically to you. Not only will the administrative aspects be taken care of, but your event will be brought to life creating your story for all guests to enjoy. With the burden of admin lifted from your to-do list, you can expect a seamless event that looks like it came straight out of Pinterest.
The journey begins with an introduction to our planning team, followed by meeting your dedicated Planner 12 months before your event date. Your Planner will manage all event vendors, your custom budget, and event logistics, essentially acting as your event architects to ensure your dream day comes to life from start to finish. Sit back, relax, and leave the planning to us.
If you decide not to include planning in your custom quote, this means you are opting to plan your big day yourself. You will receive an introductory email from our venue team with everything you need to know, and other documents to help you on your way. You will have one meeting which is held three months out from your date to go over all questions and catering details.
While The Goodsmiths team is confident they can deliver the best styling in the industry (even if we do say so ourselves,) we understand that some clients may have their own stylist in mind or even want to do it themselves. If that is the case, you may hire your own stylist, but it won’t contribute to the venue’s minimum spend.
Definitely! Nothing about Anatomy of Flowers’ approach is cookie-cutter. They will collaborate with you to understand your vision and preferences, and then present options to ensure that your florals are entirely customised to reflect your unique style and taste.
We store all client footage for 12 months post-wedding date. Files will then be removed from our storage system. The client will be sent an email 1 month before deletion as a warning with the option to purchase their RAW files, fine art book and prints.
We do offer film photography. Get in touch to find out more.
