Hello!

We are Dan and Rach: husband and wife duo, partners in crime, and owner-operators of The Refinery.

When planning our own wedding back in 2015, we struggled to find a venue in Brisbane that ticked all of the boxes. After going through this experience, we decided it was time to raise the industry standard and create the venue of our dreams, The Refinery!

What was once a panel beater has been meticulously thought-out and transformed into a stunning, versatile space. We focus on delivering the best across everything we do in the most refined way - from delicious restaurant-quality food (have you been to our sister venue next door, Rogue Bistro?!), to our impeccable standard of service and to our inventory of on-trend furniture and inclusions.

Together with our tight-knit team, we hustle tirelessly to host your wedding as though it were our own. You’ll find Dan leading the kitchen as Head Chef in both of our venues, Event Coordinator queens Rach and Amelia guiding you throughout the planning process and executing logistics on the day, and of course, Sione, our General Manager, glueing us all together.

This is us in a nutshell, but we would love to chat with you further and show you through our beautiful space. And hopefully you’ll love it as much as we do!
