Weddings & Engagements at Lux Foundry
A wedding or engagement deserves a venue that feels personal. At Lux Foundry, you don’t just hire a space – you create an experience. Our heritage-listed warehouse in Brunswick is a relaxed, industrial backdrop where couples can host both their ceremony and reception in the one place, styled exactly the way they want.
WHY CHOOSE LUX FOUNDRY FOR YOUR WEDDING
Lux Foundry is a little different from the traditional wedding venues scattered across Melbourne. The building itself is a former factory – heritage-listed, with distressed brickwork, high ceilings and raw character. Couples love it because it isn’t over-styled or locked into a single look. Instead, it’s a minimalist canvas. You can keep it stripped-back and chic, or dress it up into something bold and Instagram-ready.
Accessibility is another strength. Hosting your wedding at Lux isn’t about inflated “wedding tax” pricing. We simply ask for a minimum spend of $5,000, the same as our other private functions. At Lux, we believe every couple deserves the opportunity to get married in style, so we’ve kept weddings affordable without adding extra costs.
By day, natural light streams through the venue and courtyard. By night, the space shifts into something more intimate, with moody industrial lighting and the brick backdrop taking centre stage. It’s this dual personality – light and bright in the afternoon, dramatic and atmospheric in the evening – that makes Lux Foundry stand out.
Couples consistently praise how relaxed and accommodating the team is, making wedding planning less stressful and the big day run smoothly.
CEREMONY & RECEPTION IN ONE PLACE
Many couples choose Lux Foundry because they can host both parts of their day without having to move guests from one location to another.
- Courtyard ceremonies work beautifully for an intimate, urban feel.
- Guests then drift inside for cocktails and canapés, before the main reception begins.
- The entire celebration happens under one roof, which makes planning smoother and the day more relaxed.
It’s an effortless flow — ceremony, photos, drinks, dinner and dancing all in the one venue.
STYLE IT YOUR WAY
Because Lux Foundry is a minimalist space, you can take it in any direction. Some couples lean into the natural industrial chic – exposed brick, high ceilings, heritage bones – and keep the décor understated. Others go all out, layering florals, signage, cake displays and lighting installations.
The beauty of the venue is that your styling choices won’t fight with the building. Instead, the backdrop amplifies them. It’s simple enough to stay raw and authentic, and versatile enough to be dressed into something truly spectacular.No two weddings at Lux look the same, and that extends to food and drink.
Cocktail weddings are popular, with a mix of canapés, grazing tables and flowing drinks. Some couples prefer to keep the bar modest, while others dedicate a portion of their spend to an open bar for the night.
Highlights from our packages include:
- Crispy quesadillas with smoked chipotle sour cream
- Grazing tables filled with locally sourced produce
- Mini Wagyu sliders and sticky lamb ribs for heartier appetites
- A range of vegan and gluten-friendly options
Our drinks list covers everything from Aperol Spritz and espresso martinis to vegan wines and local craft beers.
