So he’s popped the question and you said ‘Yes!’. You’ve told family and friends and now they’re asking when and where. You have a Pinterest board full of wedding inspiration and your coffee table is covered in bridal magazines. But where are you going to seal the deal? Finding a wedding venue that is perfect can be one of the most stressful parts of wedding planning, but with a little research, it doesn’t have to be. Take a look at these perfect wedding venues – some of the best places to get married in London.
Kew Gardens
Last year, Kew’s breath-taking Temperate House – the largest Victorian glasshouse in the world – reopened after a five-year closure. The impressive glasshouse can host large evening dinners and standing receptions of up to 300 guests amongst 10,000 species of rare and endangered plants. Spend your special day in Kew and dance your evening away with some of your nearest and dearest alongside the blooms.
Claridge’s, Mayfair
With a history of state banquets and royal receptions, Claridge’s can comfortably accommodate up to 400 guests. If your party number is at least 60, you will receive a complimentary night in a suite and special rates for your guests. No idea is too big or details are too small at Claridge’s.
Searcys at The Gherkin
Weddings at Searcys at the Gherkin can be as individual, distinctive and unique as you wish. Imagine saying ‘I Do’ up in the clouds and spending your big day in one of London’s most iconic buildings, surrounded by striking 360-degree views of the city. The breath-taking space is located on the 39th and 40th floors of The Gherkin and offers one of the most elegant and private settings around. You can invite 140 of your friends and family to celebrate your day and experience culinary delights up in the sky, whilst sipping champagne naturally. Have your first dance as a married couple whilst the sun goes down over London’s beautiful skyline.
The Globe Theatre
The Swan Restaurant inside Shakespeare’s Globe offers the chance for a real-life Romeo and Juliet moment. The Balcony Room has panoramic views of the River Thames through its wooden doors and large French windows. You can seat up to 70 of your closest friends and family for an intimate celebration.
Natural History Museum
The Museum’s spaces provide an exquisite setting for a wedding reception. Breath-taking architecture and spectacular collections make for a stunning backdrop to your vows. You can choose between eight spaces in which to host your event.
One Marylebone
One Marylebone opened its doors as a hire space in 2008 and quickly rose to become one of the leading unique venues of London. Just a stone’s throw away from Regents Park station and only one of only three London churches by Soane, the venue is the most architecturally distinguished with a beauty of national and architectural significance.
It is fair to say that this article has only scratched the surface of options available for wedding venues in London but equally, it is safe to say that these are some of the best and if you were to choose one of these, you will have a magical day to remember.
