Great to hear, Kristie. Everyone needs free champagne on their special day! Warm Regards, Events Team

May 2017

Our wedding was the hottest day on record, with a tropical storm that went on during our ceremony. Originally we were happy to get married outside though so pleased we chose this unique space and ensured our guests were comfortable. The Nishi Gallery is a blank space with a white canvas wall, it really is an area for you to paint your picture.

Thank you so much for choosing Nishi and letting us be a part of your special day! It was truly one to remember :) Events team

May 2017

This was the only honeymoon we were going to get, so we forked out a bit extra and stayed somewhere nice. Giant stone bath tub, enormous double shower and double vanity, big comfortable bed, with stylish art decorating all the walls, lounge room and beautifully presented dim lighting on entry. Not to mention, downstairs is Max Brenner (the same café we went the day he proposed). What an awesome way to wrap up the wedding.

Thanks Caylee, our Meandering Suites truly are designed for romantic getaways such as this! So we are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your honeymoon escape. Ovolo Nishi Team

April 2017

We booked the Meandering Room at Hotel Hotel for our wedding night and it was incredible. We had a bottle of wine on arrival and the friendly staff were a pleasure to deal with.

Late night snack ideas for our wedding reception

Hi! We love the idea of the midnight snack at our reception for the late partygoers. What are some unique/fun ideas that our guests will love?

Ovolo Nishi

Hi lovely,

Our couples often order popcorns from Palace Cinema located in the same buiding! You can never say no to freshly made popcorn!! :) 

Alternatively, we offer grazing boards which can include dessert items, cheese and charcuterie.

On the day of the wedding who sets up the decorations at the venue?

Ovolo Nishi

Certainly depends on your chosen venue. At Ovolo Nishi, we suggest engaging with an external stylist to avoide any pressure on you or your bridal party on your special day. However, if you are DIYing your wedding, we can certainly assist you with the set up using items supplied by you as long as a clear styling instrunction is provided. And additional cost will occrur for this. We have seen some florists who also set up the tables with candles, etc so it would be a good idea to check with them too.

Eloping

Hi, we are looking to elope. Most packages we’ve seen for venues come with a celebrant and photographer. We’d like my partners brother to perform the ceremony but as he isn’t a registered celebrant we had looked at doing the legal bits during the week at the registry office. We also don’t require a photographer as we already have one from previous events we’d like to use again. Most elopement packages come with both of these things as a must have inclusion. Any suggestions??

Ovolo Nishi

Hi there, Emma.

We don't have elopement packages as such, however we love creating bespoke packages based on your requirements. 

If you are just after a space to conduct the elopement, then look no further. We have stunning spaces available that you can hire for the day or even a couple of hours at a time. We will even throw in some celebratory bubbles, because why not?

If this is something you would be interested in, then please get in touch as we would love to discuss with you!
