YES to the dress, Vinnies-style

Calling all thrifters, vintage lovers and treasure hunters! Vinnies is bringing the wedding event Sydney siders fell in love with to Melbourne for the very first time.

After the success of the Vinnies Wedding Expo in NSW, we're thrilled to launch the Vinnies Wedding Pop-Up, four days of one-of-a-kind wedding fashion, curated racks and the kind of finds you can only get from op shopping. Plus loads of new with tags wedding and bridesmaid dresses. 

That's not all! We are joined by a handpicked lineup of wedding vendors, from photographers to planners to a sweet treat baker, so you can learn more about wedding day services and shop it all in the same place. There's even a fun prize draw with a wedding-worthy giveaway up for grabs.

This is one pop up you won't want to miss.

Where: The District Docklands, 33 Wharf Street, Melbourne
When:  Thursday 20 – Sunday 23 August 2026, 10.00am - 6.00pm

What is the Vinnies Wedding Pop-Up?

We have received over 300 new wedding dresses, plus a stunning range of vintage and pre-loved pieces. Browse it all under one roof, including:

• Wedding dresses
