“We had the pleasure of chatting with Hayley at The Royal College of Surgeons recently and believe us, you will be considering a London wedding after reading this!”
“When you think of London you may think urban, but there are so many hidden gems you can choose from. A London Wedding doesn’t have to be ultra-modern and urban, it can also be classic and historical.”
“London is a multicultural iconic city, which helps when you have family traveling in from abroad. There are fantastic transport links and great opportunities to do some sightseeing. You could make a weekend of it and even kick off your honeymoon here.”
“The U.K. wedding industry is swarming with suppliers, some that have been around for years and some newcomers that are great for providing something a bit more alternative. I always advise couples to shop around to see what the best deals are. There is so much to choose from, so don’t be pressurised into spending more than you think something is worth.“
“London has the the most popular spots available for taking stunning wedding photographs; from a white ‘black taxi cab’ to the big red buses transporting your guests. You can stop at an old telephone box, or try and get the London skyline in your shot highlighting the exquisite city surroundings.”
“What I find very original is the couple who pull a bit of the architecture from the amazing buildings and stunning venues into their photographs. This definitely reminds them why they chose a London venue, when looking back at their wedding album.”
“Here at the RCS we have a stunning 18th Century Library. There is a magnificent grand marble foyer with stunning masonry and large pillars to greet guests when they enter the building. This can represent classic London, but everything can be changed in an instant with some alternative decor and a personal touch from the bride and groom. City venues don’t have to scream London… unless you want them to! City weddings can have all the charm and elegance of rural nuptials, but with more things to see and do!”
“When choosing when and where they get married, couples do have to consider accessibility for family and friends. Transport is obviously important, but so is accommodation. Having a venue with accommodation on site can be ideal or having a place to stay within walking distance is easy to achieve. London is definitely not short of hotels and venues. It is important to consider the logistics and (excuse the pun) marry the two together.“
