Booked The Vienna Salon at Fidelio
5.0
We recently celebrated our wedding at Fidelio Café in Clerkenwell, and it was an absolutely incredible experience! After being let down by another venue during the pandemic, we were initially nervous about the process, but Ash and Pedge exceeded all expectations. From the very beginning, they were not only kind and creative but also incredibly prompt in responding to every single request we had—nothing was too big or too small for them to handle. No ask was ever too much, and they went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. Their professionalism and attention to detail shone through in the lead-up to our wedding and on the day itself. And the food—wow, it was out of this world! If you’re looking for a venue that truly cares about your event and delivers exceptional service, Fidelio Café is the place. We couldn’t recommend them more highly!

Booked Mala Madre Events Space at The Last Talisman
4.7
Mala Madre is a perfect venue for a more private event in the heart of London. From the moment of booking the space, communication with Dovile and Cecile was easy and we were given reigns on how we wanted the space to look for our wedding reception (added flowers, fairy lights, bunting and even a shimmery photo wall). We ordered some finger food and it was all very delicious. All our guests enjoyed the night as much as we did. VERY lovely venue and staff were all fantastic! Thank you Mala Madre!

Booked Entire Venue at The Fox, Shoreditch
4.9
We had our wedding reception at The Fox and it was a total blast! Guests loved using the different floors and especially the outdoor area (which could be covered) and karaoke room. Throughout the process the team were super responsive via email about food orders, allowed my cousins to DJ and take over the sound system, and the staff were always super friendly when we visited and had more requests. We barely needed to decorate as the place is so nice and was clean and tidy for the event. They also laid on security so we really felt like the place was ours!

Booked Princess Room at The Princess of Wales
5.0
We had our wedding reception here and it was amazing! I must thank Fefe, Ada, Claudi and Loni for making my wedding reception wonderful! Communication was easy and they were able to accommodate the requests that I had which I loved and appreciated! I had told them the vision I had in mind and they were willing to accommodate. Super professional and have to thank the team for helping out setting up the tables and cleaning up - we were hungover the day after! Lastly, food and drinks were tasty! I would recommend this venue!

Booked Main Restaurant at Peron No4
5.0
Naz, Barbora and the peron team were amazing. 10/10 experience Professional, 5 star, accommodating and outstanding service The communication was great I appreciate it was a busy time over Christmas and thank you for dealing with a type A bride! 😂 The day ran so smoothly and whilst I’d love to say me and my husband were the stars of the show. We were outshined by the food haha! All of our guests kept gushing about how gorgeous the venue was, but more so, the food was impeccable from start to end. The evening guests were obsessed with the evening food bowls. I wish we would’ve have thanked the chefs who worked hard in the kitchen but we were having so much fun, dancing and being with our friends and family. If you’re looking for an intimate venue that also has the ability to have a great space for an evening reception too. Hands down Peron No.4 is the place for you.

Booked Whole Venue at Patch East
4.7
Paola specifically was lovely to work alongside in planning our wedding party; communication was great and all of our questions were answered. Paola is also someone who’s just solutions focused which takes pressure off your shoulders with all the ‘what could go wrong’ feelings you get when planning a wedding. We also wanted to massively commend Patrick the Event Manager and his bar staff team on the night. They were brilliant and brought such great vibes- it really felt like they were part of the party. If I ever needed anything Patrick was already on it. The suppliers recommended to us by Patch e.g the DJ were also excellent- great value for money and really talented. The space looked really beautiful, the team and my friends had done a great job setting it up.

Booked Main Bar at The Queens Head
5.0
We couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding reception! From the moment we stepped through the doors, we were greeted by the most friendly and welcoming staff we could have hoped for. Their warmth and enthusiasm made us feel like we were among friends, and that set the tone for the entire evening. The location itself was absolutely stunning. The pub was beautifully designed and decorated, creating a charming and cozy atmosphere that was perfect for our celebration. It provided the ideal backdrop for our special day, and our guests were in awe of the venue's charm. One aspect that was particularly important to us was finding a gay-friendly venue, and we were thrilled with the inclusive and accepting environment the pub offered. It was clear that they not only welcomed but celebrated all forms of love, which meant the world to us and our LGBTQ+ friends and family. Our wedding reception at this venue was an unforgettable experience, thanks in no small part to the incredible staff, the fantastic location, and the warm and inclusive atmosphere. We couldn't recommend this venue more highly for anyone looking to celebrate their love in a truly special place.

Booked Whole Venue at The Williamson's Tavern
5.0
We had the most exceptional wedding party at the Williamson Tavern, a beautiful celebration of love in a very special proper London pub. The team were incredible from the moment we booked, helping us plan our special day so it would be just how we wanted it. They really went the extra mile to make sure we had the best time and we've enjoyed every minute of organisation, prep and of course the wedding party itself. This will always be a special pub for us and we look forward to re-visiting over the years :)
