RealWeddings Guide
White Top works on a fully integrated model. The team has dedicated in-house infrastructure, furniture and hospitality divisions — bringing creative, logistical and operational elements together under one roof.
From initial design through to build, furnishings and on-the-ground delivery, every detail is considered as part of one cohesive vision.
Established in 2015, White Top operates across Victoria and New South Wales, with capability to deliver weddings Australia-wide and internationally. Couples are paired with a dedicated Event Director and unlimited planning consultations, and the team has particular expertise in private-property weddings.
Budget management is built into the process, with structured tracking, itemised breakdowns and ongoing monitoring to keep spend on track.
White Top also brings genuine experience across cultural and multi-faith celebrations, including Indian, Chinese, Greek, Italian, Lebanese, Jewish, Vietnamese, Muslim, Sikh, African and fusion weddings.
Yes. White Top owns its own inventory, including premium marquees, flooring, lighting, dining tables and chairs, cocktail furniture, bars and service equipment, outdoor umbrellas, glassware and linens.
Yes. The build and styling team can create custom event furniture, installations and experiential activations.
White Top covers planning and event management, styling and construction, and AV and entertainment. Beyond hiring out equipment, the team plans, provides creative direction, manages logistics, and installs and packs down on the day.
White Top's Event Directors are planners who are also trained in operations and logistics, so they can offer both creative and practical solutions. They act as the couple's single point of contact throughout the planning.
4–5 full-time White Top staff on-site, plus a dedicated Back of House Operations lead and Function Coordinator overseeing hospitality and operations.
Yes. The team attends and coordinates supplier meetings and builds the master timeline, from early planning through to the day.

Wedding planners of our dreams. From start to finish the whole team at White Top made us feel completely comfortable with the whole wedding planning process. From the creative side, management of vendors, creative direction and planning/styling, build of marquee and staff for every element of our wedding. They are professional and experts at what they don’t. We couldn’t recommend the team enough and hope to work with them again in the future!!!
Sophie, Josh and the entire White Top team are the most incredible planners and stylists - we’re so lucky to have them here on the Mornington Peninsula! Their attention to detail is second to none and they put so much love and care into every wedding and event. Nothing is ever overlooked and they go above and beyond to ensure everything runs seamlessly.
It’s always such a joy working alongside industry professionals who are not only so talented but also warm and kind. The private properties they work with across the Peninsula are always stunning and their expertise truly elevates every celebration. If you’re planning a beautiful event or wedding, choosing White Top will truly be the best decision you make!
Excellent service! Sophie and the team at White Top Venues are the best. So thoughtful and accommodative. We had the pleasure working with them when shooting a wedding at Ooralba Estate, Kangaroo Valley. The couple was beyond happy with their service, the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception ran so smoothly and everything was taking care off. Can't recommend White Top Venues enough!
Premium wedding planning, styling and event production for couples seeking a beautifully considered celebration from concept to completion.
