Description

Built on the site of a former royal palace, 116 Pall Mall is a luxurious historic wedding venue located in the heart of St James's, London. Only moments from the West End, Trafalgar Square and Buckingham Palace, this Grade I listed property offers an iconic setting of its own. Designed by Brighton Pavilion architect John Nash, the building exudes glamour and Georgian majesty wrapped up in the finer points of contemporary design. From the sweeping grand staircase to the glittering 15-foot chandelier, every detail is yours to define with a dedicated wedding team to help deliver in style. At 116 Pall Mall, you will be spoilt for choice with over eleven eclectic spaces to choose from. Each area is ideal for every kind of ceremony, blessing, reception and wedding breakfast, and can be thoughtfully combined for weddings of up to 1000 guests. The ornate staircase is the venue's standout feature and a popular spot for couples to exchange their vows as their loved ones rejoice from the balcony above. Elsewhere, The Nash is the largest event space, easily accommodating up to 250 seated guests for an elaborate wedding feast. Named for the famed architect, the room is steeped in luxury and grandeur, complete with impressive painted portraits and atmospheric lighting. Meanwhile, the Carlton Room is a wealth of dramatic Ionic columns and gilded walls that will have 200 guests feeling like VIPs. After the dining has come to a close, loved ones can make their way through the room's south-facing doors and alight upon a private terrace and garden. Down in the original brick-vaulted cellars, the newly refreshed Champagne Bar awaits, ready to host an after-party befitting its central London location. The experienced 116 Pall Mall wedding experts are passionate about designing dream wedding days that embrace this treasured building to the fullest. The team wholeheartedly believes that every wedding is a unique reflection of the soon-to-be-married couple.

Truly wonderful through the whole process

116 Pall Mall is the best. They made our wedding so memorable; not only due to the absolute beauty of the space, but also because the staff made the whole experience so easy and efficient. I can’t recommend this place enough. It is so lovely and we were thrilled to have our wedding in such a special place.

Perfect venue for our dream London wedding!

We had our wedding reception at this venue and it was an absolute dream come true. Their in house events facilitators helped us plan an amazing day and enabled us to bring our vision to life. The building is stunning both the outside and the inside which made for beautiful photographs and the day ran so smoothly thanks to the great professional staff there. We would recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married in central London - it was a dream come true!

Thank you for delivering our dream wedding

We can't thank the team at 116 enough for helping us to deliver our dream wedding. Every communication we had with Marta was great, she made the whole planning process extremely easy. We loved the fact you helped us to choose some of our main suppliers as we were really struggling to make a decision and they turned out to be amazing!! Our guests were so impressed by the building and had so much good feedback about the food and reception after the ceremony. The Nash Room really was the perfect space for the wedding breakfast and it was great to get ready in one of your beautiful rooms before the day began.

An absolute fairytale!

116 Pall Mall delivered the most magical wedding & a wonderful experience, especially during such uncertain times. My boyfriend & I contacted 116 Pall Mall in February of 2020 as a possible wedding venue for a late 2020 wedding. The pictures of the venue were absolutely stunning and we hoped to visit soon! In March 2020 the world isolated and it was a scary time. I was living in Chicago and my fiancé in London. The staff was so very communicative and helpful, sending additional photos and video tours, as we could not visit the venue in person. In April booked our wedding for later in the year - December 2020! Through the ever-changing government guidelines the staff kept us informed - by phone & email, continued to plan and even planned contingency plans. The staff was absolutely brilliant and a provided such calm to the whole planning process, especially during a pandemic & while living in a different country. It truly felt like we had a partner through the whole process who wanted us to have the most wonderful wedding. Even without knowing if our wedding could go ahead because of changing government guidelines, 116 Pall Mall communicated with us and directly with the vendors. Their constant engagement & helpfulness put us at ease. Our wedding was simply stunning & absolutely magical. The venue is breathtaking, so stunning (as is the surrounding London area!) and the staff is professional & extremely helpful. With the deepest gratitude, Jack & Erica Foley

Such a fantastic day that ran like clockwork

Just a quick note to say thank you so much for helping us achieve my daughters dream day! From the moment we confirmed the booking to the day itself, nothing was too much trouble and you handled every request with enthusiasm and positivity. The building was the most beautiful setting, the food was delicious and the service from the staff was excellent all day.

A stunning venue, a wonderful team and an amazing day

Our daughter’s wedding was held at 116 Pall Mall and from planning the wedding to the actual day it was a real joy. The food and running of the wedding was so perfect – we can’t think of one thing that went wrong. Altogether a stunning venue, a wonderful team and an amazing day. We would definitely recommend 116 Pall Mall for a wedding at any time.”

We couldn't have picked a better place to get married

Thank you very much for all your help on our wedding – we had the most wonderful day and we are truly grateful for all of your hard work that ensured the day was fantastic. Laura and I have discussed it and we are sure that we could not have picked a better place to get married. Not only was the venue beautiful but you completely surpassed all of our expectations. We originally decided to look at 116 Pall Mall to help cement our views on another venue. However a combination of the venue being exquisite and the price being entirely acceptable we decided that 116 Pall Mall was the correct place for us. In addition, and possibly the main contributing factor to our change of decision, was the 116 wedding coordinator who was the perfect combination of professional and personable throughout our contact and made the decision an easy one to make. The venue was wonderful, the food was absolutely spectacular (and how the chef managed to make the food that good for 80 people is still beyond me) and all of the staff were brilliant. We were blown away by how flexible everyone was and how Laura and I didn’t have to worry about anything. We had the most wonderful time and we are sure that it was down to you so thank you very much.

Our wedding was a complete success!

Sending our thanks to you and the team at the 116 Pall Mall. I cannot possibly express our gratitude and thanks for the fabulous event you arranged for our wedding. All the elements we planned with you in advance were covered, the service standards of the staff was excellent, the quality of the food was the same as when Chef prepared the delicious tasting, the wine service was timely and efficient and you were always evident behind the scene working. Our wedding was a complete success and your attention to detail and support helped make the day a great event.”

The whole day flowed wonderfully and a very happy occasion was only enhanced by taking place at 116 Pall Mall

Having just about resurfaced from the whole wedding whirl, we wanted to say how thrilled and impressed we were with the way Charlotte and Tom’s wedding reception was handled by your team. The building looked immaculate and having such a wonderful space completely at our disposal worked perfectly. We have had many compliments about the magnificent setting and it was great to be able to welcome our guests on the stunning staircase and then enjoy drinks in the Waterloo Room before seating everyone in the Nash Room for the wedding breakfast. The Nash Room looked beautiful and we loved being able to party on in there without having to relocate for the dancing. However just as importantly, the staff were (without exception) helpful, courteous and efficient and we all felt extremely well looked after. The food was absolutely delicious and served beautifully — again our guests have raved about the meal — so please pass on our thanks and appreciation to Roger and his talented team. The whole day just flowed wonderfully and a very happy occasion was only enhanced by taking place at 116 Pall Mall. Thanks from us all and finally, being able to put up the personalised flag really was the icing on the (wedding) cake!”

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

One of our couples transformed the Champagne Bar into their own personal night club for their after party. They even had signage designed so it looked like a real club! Our exposed brick Champagne Bar is actually located in the original wine cellars, so is the perfect setting for a reception, after party with a DJ or band for dancing.

Describe 116 Pall Mall in 5 adjectives

Versatile, spectacular, breath-taking, accessible, unique

Where’s the best photo spot at 116 Pall Mall?

The grand staircase is the most popular with couples. Hanging above is a 15ft glittering chandelier that was a gift to commemorate the battle of Waterloo and lots of couples say their vows on this staircase, with their guests watching from above. It's truly spectacular.

Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at 116 Pall Mall?

Not at a wedding that we're aware of, but we have had lots of A-list movie stars and actors in our building as we are often the backdrop to major film and TV moments, such as Mark Wahlberg, Heath Ledger, Emma Stone and the Made in Chelsea gang!

What’s your favourite canapé?

I think that has to be our Beetroot cured salmon, horseradish cream blini, sturgeon caviar. So elegant and designed to impress your guests!

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

You can't go wrong with our mini cheese burgers sliders. Who doesn't need a burger after a day and night of celebrating!

Our venue is packed full of character and unique history. Every room has beautiful original chandeliers and James Bond author, Ian Fleming, used to drink in our Carlton Room. Our staircase and chandelier is probably the most unique feature.
