Our spectacular, licensed glass fronted Thames Room can seat up to 120 guests for a ceremony, 80 guests for a wedding breakfast, and 120 guests for an evening reception. The Thames Room also has an adjoining terrace, perfect for drinks, canapes or informal barbecues. Ceremonies, wedding breakfasts or evening receptions can be coupled with a champagne reception or evening party aboard a luxury passenger vessel from our private jetty. Working with our outstanding catering partners, Leafi, we provide the best of seasonal British produce without froth or fuss. Our menus and prices vary, from formal three course wedding breakfasts, to informal barbecues. We would love to talk to you about your plans and to show you around our venue!

We were thrilled with our ceremony and reception at the River & Rowing Museum

We were thrilled with our ceremony and reception at the River & Rowing Museum. From our first meeting with the events team, to the big day, we were well looked after and made to feel special. The venue was fantastic, and the food was delicious. At the end of the reception we left on a boat from the Museum's jetty - it was a great end to a perfect day!
