The perfect day

We chose Christ Church because of its special meaning to us as a couple who go there each Sunday - but also because of its gorgeous decor and rich history. It looked beyond fantastic on the day, from the striking façade, to the wood-paneled nave, to the recently renovated crypt (read: dance space).

Natasha was fantastic throughout, and no request was too much for her. We knew we were in good hands and could just settle back and enjoy the day.

Can’t recommend enough!

From a brides parents from a wedding in April 2016

Dear Team, I wanted to let you know how well we thought everything went on Saturday. I know we (and especially Romy) were quite demanding (or, as Romy put it in her speech, “particular”), but I hope you’ll agree that the overall result was spectacular: everything went like clockwork, the food received universal praise, the staff went about their work efficiently (and looked good too!) and many of the guests have commented that it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. So thank you for all your efforts in preparing for the day and at the event itself. I hope you, like us, thought the end result was worth the effort. It certainly sold Christ Church Spitalfields to a number of our guests. Please pass on our gratitude and praise to your team.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.

Hello and Congratulations 🎉

I love a wedding and am not just saying that. For me, these are my goals for you both:

On your venue view, after getting to know a bit about you - bring to life how your special day could be in our venue. Everyone is different and I lean into this depending on your wants for the day.

Once you choose to celebrate your special day with us, I am on hand from the beginning, to the moment you leave in your bridal car at the end of the day.

I am there to help make sure that all your planning goes to plan, and that you enjoy the day!

Essentially - I've got you! ☺️
