Charming Workshop Wedding Venue
Attended a wedding here in the Workshop room. High ceilings and a chandelier, low lighting (a bit too low) and generally pleasant ambience. The food was delicious.

Impressive Italian Wedding Venue & Team
Never realised there's an Italian restaurant there, much less a wedding/events space! Attended a wedding there recently and was impressed by the team who handled the event and the food. The wedding ceremony and reception was held in a function space behind the restaurant, accessible by a separate side entrance. I liked the exposed brick, industrial vibe but dressed up with festoon lights and featuring a grand looking chandelier.

Describe the best wedding that happened at Factory51?

We can't pick one! We love them all! Each wedding at our venue is unique. Any wedding that involves their fur babies, extra fairy lights, lots of candles, bright florals and special personalised touches we absolutely love.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Name the three most important things to you for your wedding day that you don't want to compromise on, or you're willing to spend a little extra money on. Then don't sweat the small stuff for everything else :)

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

Live artists are a great touch! So personal for the Bride & Groom and great entertainment for guests to watch and interact while the painting is coming to life. Artists that also do illustrations of wedding guests/ caricature artists are also a super fun personal touch.
