WHAT WE REALLY THINK ABOUT THIS VENUE
Fancy high tea events by day, premier wedding venue at night: the QVB Tea Room is truly one of its kind, an impressive old world heritage building with stunning interiors, soaring ceilings and oversized chandeliers. The Tea Room is a popular choice for our clients. Situated in the heart of the city, it is a convenient location with multiple garden ceremony venues nearby and photography landmarks. This venue can also double up as a ceremony location in the main space, with a small transition in between. Despite the grandeur, the venue is surprisingly easy to style when compared to many "blank canvas" venues. So when considering budgets, the headline prices should be offset by the thousands saved in styling fees. The venue speaks for itself. The venue serves standard western 3 course banquets, and consider the food to compare favourably to similar venues within its class.
OUR TIPS FOR THIS VENUE
* Flexibility on seasons and dates can substantially impact on final budget
* Lunch generally not available at this venue
* Styling costs compare favourably against other similar venues. It's a venue where it's OK to keep things simple.
* An on-site ceremony can be held in the same space with a transition to reset. Recommended for lower guest count events or a more private intimate ceremony.
* There may be some Event Weddings recommended Contract notes and additions for this venue before booking.
* Loading and unloading for this venue is one of the most complicated venues, some suppliers may charge additional fees
* Always allow for a 10-15% buffer for incidentals
