First and foremost, you need to find a venue that will create an unforgettable wow factor for your guests. A venue that differentiates itself from others with stunning architecture inside and out.
The Corinthia offers Victorian opulence and luxurious glamour within its wedding walls and hosts some of the finest weddings for couples from all over the world. This stunning hotel offers a Ballroom space with ornate high ceilings and natural light flowing in from the floor to ceiling windows.
For those who are looking to make a grand city entrance then The Dorchester may be the venue for you. It offers a magnificent banqueting room with its own entrance off Park Lane. You can even holder your reception drinks in The Gold Room with it’s crystal chandeliers and white gold leaf ceiling.
If you want to feel like royalty and are having 50 guests or less then the Royal Suite within The Savoy may be the place for you. The space can accommodate a civil ceremony, cocktail reception and private dinner with spectacular views of the Thames. It also offers a grand ballroom for those with more than 50 guests.
However if you’re looking for luxury with contemporary vibes, the Hotel Café Royal is a stunning historical venue on the outside that focuses on modern grandeur inside. Within the venue is a Grade listed ballroom. At the far end of this room are large double doors that can be opened up on to a terrace with panoramic views of Regent Street.
