Wedding Dreams come true!

Lianne and the team at Lambeth Town Hall couldn't have been more helpful from the initial enquiry to the big day itself. We were sent loads of information via email detailing all the different room options for our wedding ceremony to take place, including a brilliant virtual tour link which meant we could really get a good idea of what would work best for our vision. We chose the largest room, (The Council Chamber) to accommodate 110 guests and it was perfect for our wedding. We were so well looked after, the team were fantastic, kept me calm and my fiancée very calm when we arrived and they were willing to go above and beyond to accommodate our guests. We had a wonderful drinks and canape reception in the courtyard too which worked really well (it's uncovered but we were so lucky with the weather!) and it was a perfect space to celebrate. I couldn't recommend them highly enough. The registrar team (shout out to Dean whoop!) were also fantastic and made our ceremony really special.

The perfect venue for our needs

Lambeth town hall was the perfect venue for our wedding celebration. We used the circular hall for our ceremony-- a gorgeous and intimate space. There were many spots to take pictures with our wedding party, family, and friends in the hall and outside during the cocktail hour. The reception took place in the assembly hall, which is very spacious and can truly be transformed. Also, Lianne is an absolute rockstar! She helped us every step of the way- from being available to answer any questions we had to connect us with suppliers. Without her help, our day wouldn't have run as smoothly. I also have to shout out Leah who helped us prepare for the ceremony and made sure everyone was on time! And Clare who went above and beyond during the reception. If you are looking for an aesthetically pleasing, affordable, licensed venue, look no further and choose Lambeth. You won't be disappointed!

Wedding ceremony at Lambeth Town Hall

We had an absolutely amazing experience getting married at Lambeth Town Hall. Lianne and the rest of the team really helped us plan the day and work out timings, and the whole team on the day were incredible. They took care of so well, we barely had to think about a thing. Can't recommend highly enough if anyone is considering it as a venue.

Welcoming, authentic and efficient

We loved having our ceremony at Lambeth Town Hall. It was where we registered our sons name and it was special for us to go back there to do the legal but of our wedding. Everyone there was incredibly welcoming and accommodating from the moment we arrived. We loved every moment and thank you for making it such a memorable day.

Circular Hall

The Circular hall was excellent and an excellent location - can be a bit echo-y, but worth it.

Fantastic Large Spring Wedding Ceremony & Reception at LTH

We had our multicultural wedding & reception at Lambeth Town Hall in April 2023, and Lianne & the venues team were essential in making our day a success. We explored various locations, and wanted to find a dry hire venue so that we could bring in our own catering and host a fully vegan wedding. Lambeth Town Hall provided everything we needed and was an excellent fit with our values. Lianne was very helpful by sharing options, costs & information proactively to get things underway. We asked Lianne & team many questions over the months leading to the event, and she always responded with patience & understanding. When there were limitations, Lianne quickly provided workarounds and other recommendations to help. We thoroughly enjoyed the Wedding Fair, where we discovered some vendors who we brought on for the day.
All payments had to be made over the phone and sometimes this was not available - but we got there in the end. Also, as it is a listed building, there are some restrictions.

Our wedding day was amazing, and we owe a large part of it to Lambeth Town Hall and the incredible team there. Our guests loved the grand Council Chamber for the ceremony (different team, but our registrar was fantastic), the Courtyard for drinks (we paid for extra courtyard time also), and beautiful, understated Assembly Hall/Foyer for dinner and evening reception (perfect floor for a full-on céilí!). We had a fairly big wedding of 140 day guests, with a total of 160 for the evening, and it was lovely to see Lianne the evening of our wedding! The facilities all worked well, and the Venues team, along with our on-the-day coordinator, ensured everything ran smoothly. We would happily (would love to!) have the day all over again in Lambeth Town Hall, which will always hold a special place in our heart.

Perfectly beautiful!

A very last minute micro ceremony, but the Circular Hall was beautifully perfect. It’s so architecturally gorgeous that it needs no decorations other than a beautiful spray of flowers. The light is stunning in any weather, and the team is the kindest, and most helpful group of people, even with the most last minute booking.
