I think we’ve figured it out by now: organising a wedding is no mean feat. Every time you think you’ve finished your To-Do List, another 50 items land on your lap. Have you thought about napkins? What colour? What material? How will they be folded? Who will be doing the folding? And that’s just napkins; something you have never thought about before, or ever will again.
So when it comes to a big ticket item like picking a venue – make it significantly easier for yourself and pick a venue where can you hold both the ceremony and the reception. You’ll be able to save on transport costs as well as venue hire – but your venue will need a wedding or civil ceremony license.
It’s cool, we’ve done the job for you. Here are our favourite licensed wedding venues in London, so that’s another thing you can check off your list:
