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!

My husband and I have always loved Rice Paper Scissors so we're thrilled to learn they have an events space - Aunty Kim's. From the moment we initially contacted them to get more information throughout the planning process, the staff made everything very easy. On the day, everyone went out of their way to provide the best service, always with a smile. The food was incredible, with great dietary options and so much people were genuinely surprised when I asked if they were ready for the mains to come out! The venue is beautiful and really doesn't need more than a few personal touches. If you like Asian fusion and are looking for a city venue, please give Aunty Kim's a call as we can't recommend them highly enough!
