The Best Foodie Wedding Venues In London
Let’s face it – even with the most meticulous planning, there are lots of things that lie out of your control on your wedding day. Whether it’s unexpected rain, the wrong song being played as you walk down the aisle, or the guest that’s perhaps had one too many glasses of wine.
Don’t fret, because the one thing you can control is your choice of food. And with many of London’s restaurants offering private hire for wedding receptions (some even playing host to the ceremony itself), you know you’ll be in the best of hands when it comes to a memorable wedding day meal. From restaurants with Michelin starred chefs at the helm, to iconic views of the skyline, here are London’s best restaurant wedding venues, perfect for foodie couples.
Richmond Hill Hotel
If you’re leaning towards a full weekend of eating, drinking and celebrating, Richmond Hill Hotel does it particularly well. At its centre is 144 On The Hill, a restaurant-led approach to weddings that stretches far beyond a single meal.
Think rehearsal dinners that turn into long evenings, a proper reception feast under chandeliers, and a slow, indulgent brunch the next day. Seasonal menus, a terrace for summer drinks, and the luxury of having everything under one roof make this one feel less like an event, more like a drawn-out celebration.
