The ICA is excited to now be exclusively partnered with Bistrotheque for all private events. The upstairs Nash & Brandon Rooms, which can seat up to 140 with three balconies exhibiting views over London, really is our showcase space. The Disco Room (AKA Upper Galleries) is our downstairs space and can host up to 124 for a post meal dance floor. It comes with a sound system, party lighting and a series of interconnected booths. Waterloo Garden East is situated opposite The ICA and is available for hire from 1st May - 30th September. Here we are able to host a canape/drinks reception. The ICA is also able to host legal ceremonies.

ICA Wedding Photographer review

We have just received the finished set of photos and are really impressed – you caught the atmosphere of the wedding so well. All of the shots are beautifully set up and you can really feel the emotions, both laughter and tears, of our wedding.

The perfect place for our London wedding

Within 5 minutes of visiting the ICA we knew it was where we wanted to get married. The space itself is beautiful with gorgeous high ceilings and big sash windows letting in so much light. An added bonus is the private garden we used for our champagne reception, and the balconies in the Brandon room overlooking the Mall and Horseguards - a total treat and really special for photos.

Stunning wedding venue

As soon as we walked into the ICA we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. Upon arrival you enter into a beautiful hallway with access to the most amazing spiral staircase that takes you up to the first floor function rooms (Nash & Brandon). When you enter the space you are instantly blown away by the scale and grandeur of the Georgian rooms, and with all 3 spaces interconnecting it makes for an ideal space to hold your wedding service, meal and after party.
