Choosing the Right Wedding Reception Venue

Naught Distilling at 2/32 Peel Street, Eltham, makes its own gin and opens its cocktail bar only to the group that has booked it, which makes it an unusual choice for a wedding reception.

Wedding receptions and engagement parties are both on its list of events, and every package hands the couple the whole venue for four hours, with the events team and all staff included.

What a reception at the distillery involves:

  • A cocktail-style celebration: bookings start at 50 guests, and the team works out which of the three event spaces and which layout suits your numbers.
  • A setting with character: a long backlit back bar, deep teal seating, large painted artworks and the still itself.
  • Food to graze on: a styled grazing table, canapés or both, depending on the package.
  • Drinks that step up: beer and wine at the entry level, spirits next, then two cocktails per guest at the top.
  • A gin toast: a gin welcome cocktail or a full cocktail hour can be added for the arrival of the couple.

Packages start from $90 per person, covering food, drinks and staff for the four hours.

Planning the reception menu

  • The middle package pairs the grazing table with three canapés, or seven canapés on their own, with beer, wine and spirits.
  • The top package adds six canapés to the grazing table, or ten canapés, plus two cocktails for each guest.
  • Canapés range from sushi, kingfish ceviche and prawn dishes to arancini, pies and gyoza.
  • Vegan pithivier is on the canapé list, and dessert bites finish the evening.

The bridal party and the engagement

  • The Saturday gin cocktail masterclass, 90 minutes for a group of no more than 30, suits the bridal party as a pre-wedding outing.
  • Masterclass guests get a gin and tonic or gin and ginger on arrival, a tasting flight of the house gins and two cocktails they make themselves.
  • Engagement parties are hosted on the same exclusive four-hour basis as receptions.
  • Because the bar does not trade to the public, no other drinkers share the room on the day.

Common Questions About Wedding Reception Venues

What is the minimum guest count for a distillery wedding?

Bookings start at 50 guests. The events team then suggests the space and layout that fits your numbers and the style of the reception.

Is the distillery open to the public during our reception?

No. The cocktail bar does not trade to the public and opens only for the group that has booked it, for four hours of exclusive use.

Is a seated dinner possible at Naught Distilling?

Its packages are built around grazing tables and canapés in a cocktail format, so it suits a standing reception rather than a plated meal. Ask the events team about layouts for your group.

Can the bridal party do the gin masterclass before the wedding?

Yes. The Saturday masterclass takes groups of up to 30 behind the bar for 90 minutes, with a tasting flight of the house gins and two cocktails each guest shakes up.
