WedShed helps you discover unique
wedding venues and wedding vendors.
Right from the get-go, our goal has been to make the process of wedding planning
stress-free, inspiring and – here’s the big one – fun. Weddings are all about good times,
so why should the lead-up be any different?
The best way we could think to do that was by gathering together the most unique venues across
Australia and New Zealand, as well as the most talented wedding vendors on one platform for you to discover.

Ladies, I feel the need to message and say THANK YOU! Finding a venue that is unique is one of the hardest things I have done and when you can’t find find that one, the planning becomes stressful more then fun. Up until I was recommended wedshed – I have already searched and seen 4 venues I love. Look forward to working with you.

Wedshed helped me to find a venue the suited what we wanted after many months of looking and not being able to find the right type of place. Thanks again for the helpful website.

We enquired about a property through Wed Shed, went and had a look at the venue, loved it and booked it. It was the first venue we looked at, so the whole process was super easy and enjoyable. Your site is great for nice big photos and initial info to help decide if it’s worth going to see the venue.
