Gather & Tailor Melbourne Weddings

Set against the backdrop of an industrial scene of shipping containers and converted warehouses, Gather & Tailor offers a modern warehouse wedding venue in the heart of Melbourne’s urban landscape.

Set just beside the Maribyrnong River, the venue sprawls over two levels of event spaces, each a blank canvas in its own right. Outside is an open courtyard area lined with various cactus plants and festoon lights twinkling overhead.


The Scene at Gather & Tailor Melbourne

Arriving at Gather & Tailor, the first thing you’ll notice is the urban setting that feels at once rebellious and secluded. The towering warehouse invites guests into its light-filled spaces through a generous black-clad entryway.

Inside, the lower level of the warehouse wedding venue might be decked out for an intimate indoor ceremony flooded with candlelight and modern, wispy floral installations that mark the altar.

Following your ceremony, guests are invited to cocktails and canapés outside in the cactus-lined courtyard where you can set up comfy lounge areas and an outdoor bar. Can you hear the summery-chill playlist already?


Gather & Tailor Melbourne Wedding Ceremonies

Ceremonies at Gather & Tailor can take place on either level of the venue, depending on your guest count and what you’re picturing. 

The lower level is typically for couples who have a larger guest count so that the upper level is available for receptions. You can easily swap the format as well — it just depends where you’d rather spend more time on the day.

For couples with a smaller guest count, both the ceremony and reception might take place upstairs to maintain the grand warehouse venue’s feeling of intimacy.

Nearby Footscray Park is a lovely outdoor garden wedding ceremony alternative if you’d prefer a park setting. And, of course, you can always move things into Gather & Tailor on the day if you end up with wet weather since you’ll be having your reception there anyway.


Gather & Tailor Melbourne Wedding Receptions

If an innercity industrial wedding is what you’re all about, Gather & Tailor is going to be right up your alley. It takes minimal effort to make this space shine — simply add your people, your kinda dining experience, and a dash of styling, and you’re good to go.

Most couples host dinner and dancing on the upper level of Gather & Tailor, but you could easily break up the space to suit your agenda. Maybe dinner on long dining tables upstairs followed by a crazy disco party downstairs with jewel-toned velvet couches and settees surrounding the dancefloor? Whatever you fancy.

When you book a wedding at Gather & Tailor, you’ll get instant access to the necessities for hosting. Of course, there’s exclusive venue use, but there’s also an elegant collection of chairs, wood tables, bistro lighting for the upstairs and courtyard areas,  A/V equipment, and an on-the-day coordinator.

Gather & Tailor is run by a wedding planning and styling group called Nudo Events that can put together a more customised package for your wedding. If you decide to work with them, they can help with supplier recommendations and all the details of your wedding day.

Venue Testimonials

One of the coolest venues in Melbourne and even though it's a warehouse, it still feels really nicely finished. If you're looking for a wedding that's a little bit different to the norm with tonnes of character, this is your place!

Nudo and the team have uncovered a gem of a space. From the outside, it looks quite plain, but inside..WOW! Beautiful post and beam lofted ceilings is a beautiful space to celebrate with friends and family, decked out with all you need. Well worth checking out.

Pat H

Unique and beautiful space that can be transformed into whatever you want it to be. Have attended a few events at this venue now and each of them has run seamlessly and been incredible in its own way. Beautiful timber features make the space.
