From charming to opulent: Best hotel wedding venues in London

Planning a wedding involves all sorts of considerations. There are major factors to decide on, things like who to invite, the number of guests and when to host it (summer and winter weddings are very different affairs), as well as the finer details, such as the cake, decorations, food, drink and music. But one of the most important things to consider when wedding planning is where you want to celebrate your big day – yes, we’re talking about the venue.

To take some of the stress out of your search, we highly recommend considering a hotel as the location of your wedding venue. They offer numerous benefits, the most obvious of which being that they have on-site accommodation (it kind of comes with the territory) so you don’t need to think about the getting home bit at the end of the celebrations. Plus, many possess a wedding license should you want to hold both the ceremony and the reception under one roof, and they’re well suited to both large and smaller weddings with a plethora of room options available for hire.
