About

Boasting a central location just off the Strand, RSA House combines Georgian grandeur with contemporary touches, making it an ideal venue for a traditional wedding that avoids feeling stuffy or too old-fashioned.

The townhouse’s historic aesthetic offers an elegant and grand atmosphere, thanks to finishing touches such as marble floors and stunning spiral staircases. This venue is home to a range of rooms that are available to hire for your special day, with capacities suiting everything from intimate gatherings to large-scale weddings.

RSA House is a licensed wedding venue that's able to accommodate ceremonies for up to 150 guests, seated wedding receptions for 120 or standing functions of 220. The venue typically offers an all-inclusive package, but there is the option to tailor this to your own specific needs if required.

Its largest space is the Great Room, for up to 150 at your wedding ceremony. Featuring double-height ceilings and a glass-domed roof which floods the room with natural light, the space is also home to a truly breathtaking sequence of six historic paintings which line the upper walls. It's certainly bursting with character, but there is enough room for you to add your own personal touches. For example, you can choose to have all your guests dine on one long table to add a dramatic, stately effect.

Elsewhere, discover the Benjamin Franklin Room on the ground floor, which features white columns, large bay windows and a Troika chandelier which reflects geometric patterns on to the ceiling. 

An example package at RSA House includes exclusive use of the entire house from midday until midnight, with the option to purchase a late-night extension. It also includes use of dressing rooms, a one-hour sparkling reception, a three-course dinner, private wedding tasting, dance floor, state-of-the-art AV equipment and a dedicated planner.

The Vaults

Seated Wedding Breakfast Capacity: 80

The subterranean Vaults beneath the grand and traditional event spaces of RSA House are something rather extraordinary; boasting four interconnecting event spaces, featuring exposed 18th-century brickwork throughout. A fun fact about this space, the Vaults were originally designed as warehouse storage and used to lead directly onto the Thames. For years the Vaults were used as wine cellars. Wine was brought up the river in casks and bottled in adjoining cellars before being bottled in house and laid down in the Vaults.

The Best Wedding Venue in LondonJANUARY, 2025

The RSA is named the best wedding venue in London for a reason! We had the most romantic winter wedding there at the end of November 2024. Unlike the many other venues we viewed, it has three distinct spaces to make your wedding reception an incredible experience - a light filled classic room on the ground floor for welcome drinks, an absolutely stunning dining room upstairs with one of the most impressive panoramic paintings I’ve ever seen, and underground vaults with uplighters, lanterns, and no sound limit, for the best dancing / afterparty imaginable. The price is incredibly good value for money, considering you get a fantastic in-house chef and a wedding planner who will coordinate with all the suppliers on your behalf. Compared to a lot of people we know, we had a stress-free wedding planning experience, and all of our guests commented on how smoothly everything ran on the day and what an amazing time they had.

Absolute Dream Wedding Venue!OCTOBER, 2024

My husband and I just got married at RSA last weekend, and it was such a dream come true.Sarah has been phenomenal from day 1, super organised and detailed and welcoming and has been tremendous help to me the whole process. On the day she was super involved and had everything in order, so we had nothing to worry about! She goes above and beyond the scope of the usual venue coordinator, and we felt so at ease knowing she is there for us. I can tell that she genuinely enjoyed what she does and loves wedding and is having a great time, and such a positive bubble of energy to be around - I adore her! The venue is stunning, and the food is amazing. All our guests were happy and well fed, which was my absolute number 1 priority. There is more space than you can actually use, and they let us utilise the spare rooms for storage, for a kids room, and even room for kids to sleep. We had our ceremony in Benjamin Franklin room, wedding breakfast in Great room and party in the Vault, and each room has such a unique vibe that is hard to tell we were in the same venue! Overall we had an absolute blast, and would like to 100% recommend the RSA, and will forever look back with fond memories.

Dream wedding. Faultless day at RSA.OCTOBER, 2023

Huge thanks to all the staff at RSA for their role in our wedding day. We turned the event round in 9 months and received attentive, detailed and friendly responses from RSA staff throughout. From the initial venue tour we were captivated by the whole space and the ability to customise each room to our taste. However, it was ultimately the trust we instantly had in the wedding team that made us choose RSA. Though there were some staff changes in the run up to the big day, the training, experience and attentiveness of each wedding contact was faultless. There was no request too big and we felt hugely secure in the knowledge that everything was being taken care of behind the scenes. My wife and I are busy professionals and I would strongly recommend RSA to any other couples who are stretched for time. The day itself ran without a single issue. Each different room looked utterly fantastic and one of my lashing memories will be walking into The Great Room for the wedding breakfast. An unforgettable experience due to the spectacular setting! Our repeatedly praised the service of the staff throughout the day. Everything ran like clockwork thanks to well trained and professionals serving staff who all did a fantastic job. Special thanks to Sam who was a hugely calming influence to my wife and I right through the day. I cannot send enough praise to her way for all her help in the weeks leading up to the wedding and on the day itself. A true pro that worked exceedingly well with the rest of the staff to deliver a perfect day.
