The London Venues I’ve Loved Working With in 2025

London, with its history, glamour and extraordinary diversity, offers one of the most inspiring backdrops for weddings. 

While destination weddings are becoming increasingly popular, London continues to stand out for couples seeking beauty, convenience and atmosphere with a remarkable variety of venues to choose from. 

After more than a decade planning events across some of the city’s most iconic spaces, I’m continually drawn to venues that pair architectural elegance with exceptional service and give couples the freedom to create something truly personal.

I’ve been reflecting on the incredible venues I’ve had the pleasure of working with in 2025, from world-famous museums to luxury hotels and exquisite historic properties. 

London’s venue landscape is unmatched, and each of these spaces has offered its own magic and creative possibilities.

Kensington Palace

A wedding at Kensington Palace always carries a sense of majesty. With its rich history and regal architecture, the venue adds a royal touch that simply cannot be replicated. The gardens, the iconic facade, the grandeur of the interiors — every element contributes to a truly unforgettable experience. Working here is always a privilege.

Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park

Steeped in history and renowned for its exceptional service, the Mandarin Oriental offers a unique blend of glamour and heritage. Overlooking Hyde Park one of London’s rare expanses of green space the hotel provides a sense of serenity and grandeur that feels truly special. Its sweeping views create the perfect backdrop for both intimate and opulent celebrations, and the venue continually inspires refined design and beautifully polished moments.

Spencer House

Timeless, elegant and impeccably preserved, Spencer House embodies historic London at its finest. The grand state rooms, classical details and intimate ambience make it ideal for couples seeking an elevated, luxurious and deeply romantic setting. It is always a joy to plan within such an exceptional space.

Leighton House

Leighton House remains one of London’s true hidden gems. With its intricate tiles, rich colours and remarkable architecture, the house feels like stepping into another world. For couples seeking something artistic, atmospheric and completely unique, Leighton House offers a setting filled with character and soul — a dream for designing immersive, emotive celebrations.

The Pavilion (Hyde Park)

The Pavilion (a private members club), a recent addition to the venue scene, also boasts of views over Hyde Park combined with a cosy, intimate atmosphere. Light-filled and modern, yet peaceful and warm, it creates the feeling of being tucked away in nature whilst still being in the heart of the city. 

Park Hyatt London River Thames (Battersea)

A sophisticated new addition to London’s luxury hotel scene, the Park Hyatt brings elegant design, fresh perspective and seamless hospitality. Its contemporary aesthetic and thoughtful layout offer exciting opportunities for modern celebrations. Working here this year has been a joy — and I look forward to returning.

Coworth Park

For couples dreaming of a countryside wedding without leaving the city too far behind, Coworth Park is perfection. Set within stunning parkland yet only a stone’s throw from central London, it offers rural tranquillity in the midst of five-star luxury. The estate feels both expansive and intimate, creating a sense of escape while maintaining impeccable service and sophistication.

Raffles London at The OWO

Rich in history yet boldly reimagined for the modern era, Raffles at The OWO has become one of London’s most iconic luxury destinations. The grandeur of its architecture and the quality of its interiors make every celebration feel significant and unforgettable. It’s an extraordinary space to design within.

The British Museum

Few venues can compete with the drama and prestige of the British Museum. Celebrating beneath the iconic glass roof of the Great Court creates a breathtaking sense of scale and theatre. It is a venue that impresses instantly — and lingers in guests’ memories long after the last dance.

Looking Ahead

Reflecting on the venues I have had the privilege to work with last year has made me even more excited for the seasons ahead. I am sincerely grateful to each and every opportunity and chance to set foot inside these incredible spaces.

London offers an exceptional range of wedding locations from palaces and galleries to contemporary hotels and countryside estates each brimming with creative possibility.

I cannot wait to continue crafting unforgettable celebrations in these extraordinary venues in 2026, bringing together thoughtful design, heartfelt storytelling and the refined elegance that defines my work.
