Our experience at The Wool Mill was nothing short of magical. This was the first wedding venue we visited and from the moment we walked in, we knew it would be hard to beat. The venue is an open canvas and allows you to put your own twist on the styling and vibe for your wedding! The staff went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. They made planning so much easier with their expert guidance and attention to detail. From the ceremony to the reception, everything was executed seamlessly. Tayra was amazing on our wedding day and the months leading up to our wedding 🤩 Our guests loved the industrial feel to the venue and loved the story behind how it was an old Wool Mill factory. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and would do everything here all over again 🤍

We were so lucky to book the Wool Mill after a previous location cancelled on us. From our first interaction with Nudo Events and The Wool Mill we knew we were in safe hands. The team swept into provide us as much support as possible to shift our plans and arrange our day. My husband and I live interstate so the venue hosted my parents to check the place out. The Wool Mill was an excellent location for our wedding, a beautiful space that really comes to life with your own touches. The venue has three separate spaces, the ceremony area, cocktail area and the feasting hall. Each part of the venue is large, spacious and bright. Our guests loved being able to move between the spaces at different times in the night, either for a more quiet sit down or to join the dance floor. Unfortunately, as many couples do on their wedding day, we didn’t get much of an opportunity to enjoy the dinner. The venue however hosted an exclusive tasting dinner prior to the wedding where my husband and I got to taste all they had to offer and decide on the menu. It was such a special treat to get us excited about the wedding and gave us a chance to taste the delicious food and yummy drinks and to know what our guests will get to enjoy! Everyone raved about the quality of the food! The support from the whole team, in particular Tia who held our hand the whole way, and Abbey who supported us on the day - was exceptional. The team are all super friendly and fun people. No query was too annoying and nothing was too hard. All of our guests commented on what legends the staff were at the wedding! On the wedding night Abbey made sure we had a whole cheese board and nibbles placed in our bridal suite, just so we could have a bite to eat when we found a moment to ourselves. We think this demonstrates the genuine effort and care the team has for the couple and how they go out of their way to make you feel special. The planning process was so easy with Tia. She made sure we kept on track with planning, had lots of recommendations for vendors or other things, and was ultimate hype woman for us leading up to the event. We had an absolute ball of a night! We hope we don’t get married again but if we do, it will 100% be at the Wool Mill again!

As a wedding photographer, this is a Melbourne inner city gem for a wedding venue! I love the industrial feel of the venue, with it's high ceilings and exposed brick makes a great blank canvas for every couple to put their unique touch to their wedding. Can't wait to photograph at The Wool Mill again!

No words to explain how amazing our experience with the team at Wool Mill was for our wedding - from the Goodsmiths to Anatomy of Flowers and all of their suppliers, the way they made our planning an absolute breeze was second to none. They outdid themselves on the event planning, styling and food/drinks - could not recommend them enough! Thank you so much to Jasmine, Maddi, Shae, Dave and Silvia!! XXX

We had our wedding on 10 November 2023, and it looked absolutely gorgeous! We fell in love with the venue due to its blank canvas style, where anything from minimalistic to over the top style decor would have suited it. On the night we had so many comments on how stunning the venue is and that more people need to know about it (including from our cake maker who sees allllllll of the venues across Victoria). There are also nearby places where there is a nature element for those who would like to feature a contrast to the industrial look of the venue. You get the best of both worlds! I love that it’s very typical Melbourne hole-in-the-wall being down a lovely laneway, and the festoon lights are beautiful! The best part of the venue is the ‘secret’ speakeasy bar, which is also very Melbourne-esque. Everyone absolutely loved it! The staff were amazing, everything ran smoothly and I am so glad we had our wedding here, what a gorgeous venue!
