116 Pall Mall is the best. They made our wedding so memorable; not only due to the absolute beauty of the space, but also because the staff made the whole experience so easy and efficient. Planning a London wedding when based in the US felt quite daunting, but between our wedding planner (Lucy Meehan) and the team at 116 Pall Mall it went so well. The highlight of this venue is that you can have ceremony, reception, and afterparty in the same place. Post-wedding, many guests told us how much they loved that aspect. Also, it was personally important to us that our venue was wheelchair accessible and 116 Pall Mall is, and they did everything possible to accommodate our needs. I can’t recommend this place enough. It is so lovely and we were thrilled to have our wedding in such a special place.

A stunning venue, that is spacious, well laid out, simple unobtrusive elegant design that allows you to put your own imprint on it. All the beautiful photographs of a country wedding but your guests can take the bus home.

We just got married at Lauderdale House last weekend and had a fantastic time! The stewarding team were attentive and handled all the details for us so we could just show up and enjoy the day. Using the lower gallery for our reception and getting lucky with a rainless day, guests were able to either enjoy the dance floor or sit outside in the gardens, allowing everyone to be comfortable and take in the atmosphere. Lauderdale’s in-house catering through Pink was lovely - we did a buffet and canapés and were able to easily cater to all dietary restrictions. The meal was presented beautifully and received lots of compliments. The space provides a perfect backdrop easily dressed up with minimal floristry, and the gardens were perfect for group and couple photos. Highly recommended for an intimate semi-formal wedding that has something for everyone!

As soon as we walked into the ICA we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. Upon arrival you enter into a beautiful hallway with access to the most amazing spiral staircase that takes you up to the first floor function rooms (Nash & Brandon). When you enter the space you are instantly blown away by the scale and grandeur of the Georgian rooms, and with all 3 spaces interconnecting it makes for an ideal space to hold your wedding service, meal and after party. For us the venue couldn't have been any better and it made our day so special for everyone involved. My husband and I could not have pulled off such an amazing wedding if it wasn't for all the help and support we received from the staff at the ICA. Our event manager was the most amazing person, she looked after us from the word go and helped us every step of the way. A wedding can be a daunting experience but with the knowledge and guidance of our event manager we were made to feel relaxed and supported through every step. We would highly recommend this wonderful venue......so if you are looking for a beautiful building in an iconic London location then the ICA is definitely the place to be.

Thank you for all you did on Friday for Hannah & Nicks Wedding, we were so lucky with the weather and the drinks reception in the garden was beautiful as was the hall, the event was spectacular and we have had so many compliments and thanks from guests for a great wedding. Please thank the staff for all they did.

We truly appreciate everything you did on the day and during times leading up to our special day too. We could not have picked a better venue & location for our civil ceremony and couldn’t have asked for better coordinators on the day and prior. Everything was great! Thank you once again for all your help and coordination! It couldn’t have gone any better. Yoshita & Caimhan

Thank you to Andrew & Mark. Our day was perfect. All the guests loved the venue and had a great time. Really pleased that we found this little gem! The food was great, all the staff in the day were lovely. I couldn’t recommend this place enough 🤍

We researched so many venues and ultimately were so happy with our choice of BMA House! The biggest thing to highlight is flexibility - there are multiple great options for every portion of the wedding day. We ended up having our ceremony in the Snow Room, portraits in the Courtyard, cocktail hour in the Garden, dinner in the Paget Room, then dancing back in the Snow Room. All of those spaces felt great for our 75 person wedding, and they all photographed beautifully. We were able to mix and match up until the last day, handy as we were watching the rain forecast in May, and as our officiant fell ill a few days before the wedding, so we had the option to move our ceremony outdoors if we wanted. The space also had good getting ready rooms. The 2nd thing to highlight was how lovely all the staff were - from the chef, to the waitstaff, to the bartenders - everyone was full of well wishes for us throughout the process. Our wedding planner was Victoria, and it was fabulous working with her. She was so organized and answered 1 million questions from us. Victoria worked with us to navigate various restrictions we had, including dietary restrictions, accommodating very young children, and some cultural sensitivity elements - and put together a pricing package that felt really fair. We were planning the wedding from overseas and never worried about details because we knew Victoria would be on top of everything. Finally, the location was super convenient for all of our guests, many of whom had flown in to London. Thank you BMA House for such a magical day!

Flexibility limited with listed building and being a botanical garden (so lots of rules), however that aside the team did all they could do make our day how we wanted it. Really helpful throughout the pandemic and wonderful in their support and commitment.

We were thrilled with everything Annabelle and the LRC team did for us in the lead up to and during our wedding. Incredibly beautiful venue with lots of character (and little need for extra decorations!). The LRC staff were incredible on the night, so organised and friendly. We and all our guests had an amazing time and I really felt I could switch off and enjoy the day down to the efficiency and practicality of the team. Would recommend to anyone looking to host a big party or wedding!
