About

With 12 years experience in the hospitality industry and 7+ years in events, I have organised my fair share of events but it wasn't until 3 years ago when we opened Aunty Kim's that I started in weddings, and I have never looked back! My speciality is finding ways to bring unique elements of a couple's story into their wedding day and re-imagining what's possible. Whether it's an oyster bar, a bespoke cocktail named after the bride's mum or a dragon dance, I want to hear about it!

Aunty Kim's is simply the best! Both the venue and the team are amazing and went above and beyond for our wedding. As soon as we stepped through the door at our first visit, we knew it was the one for our wedding. The space is just so beautiful and perfect for any intimate event! The food was AMAZING! ALL our guests commented on how delicious every food served was and how full they were! The whole team was fantastic, especially with communication. Our venue coordinator prepared everything exactly as I asked and calmed down all anxiety I had in the days leading up to our wedding. On wedding day, she was nothing short of reliable and reassuring. Aunty Kim's is just a perfect choice to host your event and I'm so glad I had my wedding here.

From start to finish, just everything at Aunty Kim's was a dream. Aunty Kim's offered my wedding so much glamour with such a small pricetag. Staff were just so beautiful to work with throughout. Immaculate attention to detail for food, drinks, and dietary requirements with a suave and elegant charm deisgned into the cosy space without extra decor required by yours truly. My partner and I always knew, the one thing people remembered from a wedding was the food, drinks and merriment you can have in a space. These stay with a person through years. Months on, I have multiple guests continuously raving about the food and the drinks, and continue to talk about how cosy and romantic Aunty Kim's, whilst also promoting so much fun to our event. We are so incredibly grateful for a wondrous time. Aunty Kim's provided the BEST whole package experience :)

We had an intimate wedding at Aunty Kim’s with 32 guests plus 2 children and it was perfect. The wedding planning was smooth and easy with lots of flexibility and fit into our wedding plan perfectly, we wanted a small wedding with great food and amazing cocktails. That’s exactly what we got. Our guests are still talking about the food and one even said it was the best food he’d ever had at a wedding. The day ran smoothly and the staff throughout the day had everything organised so I didn’t have to worry. A lot of venues we went to all seemed to have hidden costs and it just wasn’t the case with Aunty Kim’s. We have nothing but great things to say about our experience and I’d love to have another event at Aunty Kim’s. Thanks guys!

We fell in love with Aunty Kim’s from the very first interaction, so much so that we were ready and willing to cancel all of our other venue tours and book them straight away! What drew us in and sealed the deal for us was the flexibility of the team and venue itself, and having have worked with some difficult venues for corporate events in the past, flexibility was priceless to us. The venue itself is located in a great central location, and it was the perfect size for our intimate 50 people wedding reception. We had the pleasure of interacting with Rosie, Maddie, Michelle and finally Courtney who was our wedding coordinator for the night and everyone was extremely lovely, professional and helpful in assisting us bring our special day to life. The entire process was seamless and in the final weeks when everything was handed over to Courtney to coordinate, we did not feel a single ounce of stress as Courtney was extremely thorough and had everything under control. On the night we were completely blown away, from the room set up, food and drinks to how the night ran, everything was impeccable. The food was incredible, drinks delicious and we could not have been happier. A huge thanks to Courtney, Alex and everyone at Aunty Kim’s who helped bring our special night to life, everything was truly perfect thanks to them!

The team at Aunty Kim's were an absolute pleasure to work with from the very beginning - they were very accomodating and it was especially helpful as we were planning it all from interstate. The communication was fantastic and each interaction really highlighted the lovely, friendly manner that the entire team have and their passion in wanting to bring each person's special event to life. Courtney who was our wedding coordinator closer to the date was nothing short of phenomenal, she really tried to help us get to the wedding day with as little stress as possible and her presence on the day was pivotal in helping everything run smoothly. Not only that, she went above and beyond to help us enjoy the day as much as we could, being extremely proactive and quick to problem solve and alleviate us of any unnecessary stress. Every single guest commented on how great the food was and how much they enjoyed the event and each touch of personalisation we put into the event which wouldn't have been possible without the team at Aunty Kim's Overall, we were very happy with our experience and would absolutely recommend it to any couple thinking about getting married in a fuss-free and intimate setting to maximise the time making lovely memories and sharing it with their closest family and friends
