Welcome to The Gardens Club: Where vintage vibes meet lush surroundings, and heritage history meets curator’s cottage charm. A wedding destination with the best of both worlds – city views and rainforest greenery located in the heart of Brisbane City Botanic Gardens.
Originally built circa 1909, the now-heritage-listed curator’s cottage and adjacent terrace and ceremony lawn provide the perfect, all-in-one wedding destination. Featuring all the classic Queenslander hallmarks – high ceilings, cornices, VJ walls, soft lighting, and the most expansive bay window view out into the gardens, The Gardens Club is an all-weather accessible and pet-friendly wedding venue with indoor and outdoor options.
Our specialised event coordinators will work with you to easily plan your wedding day.
The Gardens Club is part of The Wise Foundation. Within The Gardens Club, Wise Foundation operate a program designed to assist those in the community facing barriers to employment.
The Wise Hospitality Program provides three months of employment and training to individuals from refugee and asylum seeker backgrounds.
Working in partnership with Multicultural Australia, participants are inducted into the workplace and provided with extensive training by hospitality professionals.
About
Hi! I'm Jess I love baking, my kids, my Westie Valentine and exploring with my fam. I have been in the marketing, public relations and events industry for over 15 years and have been in service and hospitality jobs since I could start work. After completing a double degree I worked at Events Queensland, moved to regional Queensland for 10 years (highlight was organising a huge farmers market there), got married in an old hall (12 years ago) and was the DIY master of my own wedding.
