Frequent questions
Can we bring our own caterer or do you provide in-house catering?
We provide premium in-house catering services at the Harbour Room. Our experienced culinary team offers a wide range of menu options, from elegant canapés to multi-course gourmet dinners. We ‘re happy to work with you to customize menus that suit your preferences and dietary requirements. External catering is not permitted due to our commitment to maintaining the highest quality standards.
How far in advance should we book the venue for our wedding?
We recommend booking the Harbour Room or Rooftop at least 9-12 months in advance for weddings, especially for peak season dates (October to March). However, we occasionally have last-minute availability, so it ‘s always worth inquiring about your preferred date. To secure your booking, we require a signed contract and a deposit.
What makes Harbour Room unique compared to other wedding venues in Melbourne?
The Harbour Room offers a truly unique experience with its stunning waterfront location at the Royal Melbourne Yacht Squadron. Our venue combines breathtaking views of Port Phillip Bay, versatile indoor and outdoor spaces, and exceptional service. The ability to have your ceremony, reception, and photos all in one location, along with our experienced event planning team, sets us apart from other venues in Melbourne. Plus, our rooftop space provides a picturesque setting for ceremonies or cocktail hours with unparalleled views of the Melbourne skyline.
Is there a backup option in case of bad weather for outdoor events on the Rooftop?
Yes, the Harbour Room provides a seamless indoor backup option in case of bad weather. If your event is planned for the Rooftop, our team will coordinate a smooth transition to the elegant indoor space, ensuring that your celebration continues without disruption.
Can we host both our ceremony and reception at Harbour Room?
Absolutely! The Harbour Room is designed to accommodate both ceremonies and receptions. Many couples choose to exchange vows on the Rooftop with panoramic views of Port Phillip Bay, then move inside for a stylish reception. This allows for a smooth flow between events, without the need for transportation between different locations.
