- RRyan03/02/2025Great museumGreat museumIf you're a design lover, this museum is a great time. It's smaller than many other London museums, but it holds a lot of rich history on design. I particularly enjoyed the exhibition on Mari Enzo.If you're a design lover, this museum is a great time. It's smaller than many other London museums, but it holds a lot of rich history on design.

Describe the best wedding that happened at your venue?
In summer 2023 we hosted a very special wedding celebration for M&M, that perfectly reflected who they were as a couple. A Parisian themed party, complete with Eiffel Tower, a bespoke vegan menu of all their favourites, and (most importantly) a karaoke session for guests to sing their hearts out to ABBA and Taylor Swift (the bride's favourite!)
What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Take your time! Gather information from different suppliers and consider all your options and your budget carefully. Your wedding should be a celebration of your love, not something that you stress over.
What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?
At our fave Parisian themed wedding - a bespoke, live size bridge! Guests were given beautiful padlock-shaped cards to write messages to the bride and groom, and tie them on to the railings, in lieu of a guestbook. A beautiful keepsake and so creative.

Where’s the best photo spot at your venue?
In the summer months, our Garden is blooming with life, and the perfect spot for couples to enjoy some quiet moments together for couple shots.
Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at your venue?
Shhhhhhhhhhh, we can't tell you that - It's a secret............
What’s your favourite canapé?
We LOVE a dessert canape - miniature versions of sweet treats like lemon meringue pie are always a huge hit.
What’s your favourite midnight treat?
Honestly - a cheese toastie! Or pizza works too - something carby to see you through to the end of the night!
What is your venue's most unique feature?
Our iconic hyperbolic paraboloid roof. It's a Grade II listed, and a structural marvel - it is also perfect for projection mapping.
