OVERVIEW

At The Hoi, Weddings are a deliberate choice, not a compromise. Designed for celebrations of ten to 60 guests, this character-filled space allows you to host your ceremony, cocktails and reception all in one thoughtfully curated location. Heritage architecture, warm textures and flexible styling options create a setting that can feel modern, romantic, moody or timeless, depending on your vision.

Your wedding day unfolds seamlessly across three distinct spaces, each with its own atmosphere.

June 2026

We recently held our vow renewal at the Hoi, and we honestly could not have chosen a more perfect venue. From the moment we first visited, we knew it was something special, but seeing the space come together on the day exceeded every expectation we had. The outdoor laneway was transformed into pure magic. The beautiful flooring, stunning string lights overhead, and all the thoughtful finishing touches created such a warm, romantic, and inviting atmosphere. Every detail was carefully considered, and it was clear how much pride and care goes into creating an unforgettable experience for couples and their guests. John and Nadine were exceptional throughout the entire process. They were welcoming, accommodating, friendly, and always available to answer questions or offer guidance. Their communication was outstanding, and they genuinely cared about making our day everything we hoped it would be. Their professionalism, combined with their kindness and passion, made the whole planning process feel effortless and stress-free. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful the venue was and how unique and special the setting felt. The Hoi has a charm and character that is hard to put into words—it creates the perfect backdrop for celebrating life's most important moments. We are so grateful to John and Nadine for helping create memories that we will cherish forever. If you are looking for a venue that is beautiful, unique, and run by genuinely wonderful people, we cannot recommend the Hoi highly enough. Thank you for making our vow renewal so incredibly special. ❤️✨
