My parents got married here so it was the natural choice for us. Sophie was brilliant at helping us to decide what we wanted, and no question was too small. They were brilliant at helping us set up the day before and the food was WONDERFUL, everyone said how much they enjoyed the meal and the canapés, and the wine was excellent. They were great at accommodating all our eccentricities, and everything ran really smoothly. The perfect venue for a perfect day.

If you are looking for an alternative venue that will wow your guests and reduce the stressors that come with wedding planning, Paradise is the venue for you! We had the pleasure of having Clare and Anjali as our wedding coordinators and it seems that these two were sent from wedding planning and coordination heaven! From day one, they were at our beck and call and I don't think we can put into words our appreciation for their guidance, support and patience throughout our journey. Quick replies to emails and calls, professional but personable communication, private and romantic wine and menu tasting and understanding and support during many bridal breakdowns! They helped us arrange the running of the day and recommended the best times to have our pictures done, going as far as looking up the sunset time for our day resulting in the most incredible pictures, and unveiling each room as the day and night progressed keeping that wow factor going all day. The team at Paradise have an eye for detail - the set up of our ceremony, cocktail hour, wedding breakfast and after party far exceeded our expectations and blew everyone, ourselves included, away. Our photographer was even impressed with the venue as it gave him so much to work with. They ensured our guests were comfortable, and even went as far as rocking a crying baby to sleep while their mum enjoyed their dinner. There was not a piece of music or decor out of place - they understood our wants, needs and taste and truly knocked it out of the park. Did we mention the food and wine is exquisite??! Brides and grooms - do not think twice about booking Paradise as your wedding venue, we promise you won’t regret it! We could not be happier that we chose Paradise as our wedding venue. If we could do it all again with them, we would do so in a heartbeat. Thank you Paradise! Mr and Mrs Patterson

We had our “wedding breakfast” at The County Arms. From the day one everybody was so helpful with planning our big day and the communication was extremely easy and straightforward. Big thank you to Rebecca she was so lovely and nothing was an issue for her with organizing our event. Food was so delicious all my guests very happy with their choices (shoutout to the starters beef tartare and scallops and the main courses rack of lamb and vegan feta cheese salad, just yumm!) The venue itself in Victorian style has a lot of aesthetic elements and our Trinity room looked really cool and felt very private with our own bar and toilets, it was very convenient. Big plus we could plug in our phones to have some background music but we ended up dancing, laughing and drinking! The staff who worked until late was excellent and thank you so much for making sure our evening is going smoothly. We have amazing memories and will be definitely coming back for sunday roast! :)

The pub were exceptional to host our big day, the food, the drink, the staff were great!! particularly Rhys and Harry who made our dream day come true. I could not fault or recommended them more! We'll always remember the day we had there as one of the best in our lives!

Venue: Melrose Room (ceremony & wedding breakfast) & Jazz Room (after party) We first booked The Bull's Head venue a year before our wedding day. About six months in, the venue was taken over by new management (we were starting to get worried, because we'd received nothing but radio silence from the old team after paying the deposit). But once we were in touch with Karolina, Ben, and the new team, any expectations we had were blown out of the water! They were simply wonderful. Responsive, flexible, and incredibly accommodating. We had numerous questions and amendments leading up to the day which were dealt with and handled expertly. On the day itself, everyone made us feel so special and looked after. Plus, the food was delicious (even our most picky guests were seriously impressed). We couldn't recommend The Bull's Head more. If you're looking for a super special riverside pub venue for your big day - this is the one. Stop looking. You've already found it. Photos by amandawardphotog.com

The Dog and Fox were supremely flexible through planning in lockdown and delivered a lovely day for all our guests including a delicious and completely gluten free meal and especially good help for additional special dietary requirements. Throughout planning we had a good experience of contact with Hannah and the team, though there were a few issues with changes in staff (including right before the wedding). Over all though, things were very good and the communication clear. The room and the hotel rooms were beautifully appointed and we were thrilled by the effort the team went to with our table and room decorating. Drinks were well poured including draught Guinness that met our Irish families' high expectations! Good coordination between venue and other suppliers was also a life saver! Thanks to all the team, especially Hannah who really pulled out all the stops for us.

Cross Keys are professional, they offer value for money and are extremely flexible. If you want a pint in the pub, an amazing party or even the 250th anniversary dinner of Joseph Mallord William Turner, check it out, for real...

Top Indian restaurant known for pioneering modern Indian food also offers a great wedding venue space in heart of London. Having visited for a very close friend's wedding, i was completely surprised by the interiors, the ambience, service and above all very innovative modern Indian food in London. Each course was a surprise and very carefully designed. I could taste the flavour of all the spices and dish on its own. Top marks to this venue and highly recommend for anyone looking for an excellent venue with great value for money. Make it special here!

If you're hunting for the ultimate restaurant and private events spot in London, stop scrolling and start booking - Sam’s Café in Primrose Hill is an absolute showstopper. I recently hosted a dinner party in their charming, book-lined basement (think cosy literary salon meets secret supper club), and let me tell you - it was like something out of a dream. Big shoutout to Deji, the Manager Extraordinaire, who deserves a knighthood for his patience alone. I threw every tiny request at him - right down to “can we nudge the napkin a few inches to the left?” - and he met each one with grace, clarity, and a genuinely warm smile. He stayed late to walk through my increasingly detailed vision, never once said “no,” and somehow made me feel like I was the only event that mattered. Plus, every visit came with complimentary coffee or drinks (the kind of hospitality that’s becoming all too rare in London!). The food? Delicious. The drinks? Perfectly poured. The service? Impeccable. The vibe? Straight-up magical. And the location? Primrose Hill, wow. It doesn’t get more gorgeous than that. Deji also worked with us to keep everything within a very fair budget without compromising on experience - which only makes me want to come back and host a dozen more parties. In short: if you're planning a special dinner, private party, or just want an excellent meal in a beautiful space, Sam’s Café is THE ONE. Don’t even think twice. Highly, highly recommend. Thank you Deji and team. Katie 😊

We had our wedding reception at Kew Gardens Hotel back in August 2022. Although a relatively new venue to wedding receptions, we can honestly say it was one of the best decisions we ever made. First of all it started with the assistance in organising from Eleanor in the team. From our initial conversation she made us feel completely at ease over anything we wanted, with genuine desire to make sure we had the most absolutely perfect day. Whatever the question they were willing to think through what could be provided, which was really appreciated! The wider team at KGH were also fantastic in the build up to the day and on the day itself. Regarding the day - the team on site including the general managers, bar staff and those serving we genuinely couldn’t fault. The one piece of feedback we consistently got from all our guests was how friendly and helpful the staff were, and mostly how happy they also looked! This really did help make the day and we loved how that made the evening flow. We went for a bbq food option which didn’t disappoint. After selecting the menu with the head chef and team, the food was plentiful on the day, really really tasty and again only positive feedback from those in attendance. The venue itself is really well catered for any type of wedding given the teams help in accommodating requests. The garden out the back was brilliant as an overflow area, and the whole space flowed really well right through from the bar to the garden. Overall we had an absolutely amazing evening and made even more special by the team and their genuine open and friendly assistance in guiding us through to the day. We would highly recommend the venue and trust you’ll have as an amazing experience as we did! Callum & Jamie
