Melbourne wedding Venue @Chapel 1885

Chapel 1885 is an elegant setting for your wedding or function, offering an intimate space with a warm but historic ambience. It’s the perfect venue for small weddings, receptions and special events. Whether you choose your own caterer or use one of our partners, we’ll help you design your special event in your own way and make it truly unforgettable.

Combining the historic charm of a church with the romance of a luxurious New York loft, it’s the perfect space for an intimate and memorable wedding.

Designed in the Gothic Revival style, the original building combines exposed brick walls with a stunning timber ceiling handcrafted by 19th century shipbuilders. Large arched windows fill the interior with light, while intricately painted murals and chandeliers add the finishing touches. A beautiful view of Clifton Hill and the surrounding skyscape creates a romantic backdrop for photos.

The chapel also offers a grand piano, fireplace, two sitting rooms, a bar space, kitchen and a private bridal change room. A small courtyard on the premises away from food service is also available for the convenience of our guests.

Chapel 1885 is happy to offer you the flexibility to host outside vendors of your choice. We are also happy to recommend our preferred caterers.
