Afternoon cocktail wedding reception. Food and service impeccable. Guests raved about venue and food for weeks afterwards. Couldn't have asked for more. Big thank you to the event co-ordinators from Ludlows.

It was a wonderful location and ambience. The staff were extremely attentive and organised. The size of the space was perfect for our intimate and casual evening reception.

Do many wedding venues open on Christmas Day?

We're thinking of having a Christmas wedding but I'm not sure whether anything will be open.

Ludlow Bar & Dining

Hi There,

It really depends on the venue.

We have several venues that are open on Christmas day every year including Ludlow Bar & Dining Room, however, it is an incredibly busy day for us and a public holiday (so staffing costs are much higher) so if we were to take a wedding booking we would need to ensure a minimum spend was met.

I would advise asking your preferred venues as they may happily open for your event or take a function on Christmas day provided minimum spends are met.

Depending on the location you are after and the size and time of the booking I would be happy to chat with you about venue options - otherwise take a look at our listings (Ludlow Bar, Hophaus, All Hands Brewing House, and Temperance Hotel).

Good Luck with the search,

Sara
