The cost of hiring a luxury wedding venue in London will vary depending on the size and location of the venue, as well as the time of year you plan to get married. However, you can expect to pay anywhere from £3,000 to £20,000 for a top-end venue. If you're looking for something truly unique and luxurious, then you may want to consider getting married at one of London's iconic landmarks. Venues such as [The Ritz](https://hirespace.com/Spaces/London/164546/The-Ritz-London/The-Marie-Antoinette-Suite/Weddings( or Claridge's offer an unforgettable experience for you and your guests, but can often come with a hefty price tag if you’re willing to pay it! If you have a smaller budget, there are still plenty of beautiful venues to choose from in London. Many 4* and 5* hotels have stunning event spaces that would be perfect for a luxury wedding. Alternatively, you could look into hiring a private mansion or estate for your big day on the outskirts of the city.

With a little bit of research and a [little help from us](https://hirespace.com/Ask-An-Expert), you're bound to find the perfect location for your dream wedding. ## How far in advance should I book my luxury wedding venue? It is advisable to book your luxury wedding venue as soon as you have a date for your wedding in mind. This is especially true if you are planning on getting married during peak wedding season (May to September). Many of the best luxury venues get booked up well in advance, so it's important to secure your venue as soon as possible. If you're flexible with your dates, then booking further in advance may not be necessary. However, if you have your heart set on a particular venue or time of year, then it's best to book early to avoid disappointment. ## What are the best luxury wedding venues in London?

It will be the backdrop to one of the most memorable days of your life, so it is important to find a venue that meets all of your needs and expectations. ### Location When it comes to location, you’re spoiled for choice in London. Whether you love the idea of a South London riverside setting or an East London industrial-chic backdrop, finding the perfect area of London that you love is a good place to start. Then, make sure the location is accessible for your guests, both in terms of guests being able to find your venue and easily get to the wedding via public transport, car or even plane, but also that the venue itself is accessible for disabled guests. Consider the time of year too - a huge warehouse venue in the middle of winter may not be the best idea, think of the heating bills! ### Budget Obviously, budget is up there on the list of factors to consider. Whether you have a £500,000 or a £5,000 to spend on a wedding venue, you’ll want to make sure you’re getting the most bang for your buck. Once you’ve found some options, be sure to discuss with the venue whether they have off-peak cheaper times, and also whether they do any package deals that may save you money. There are a lot of things to pay for when you’re planning a wedding, so keeping costs down where you can will leave you more for elsewhere, like the food! ### Guest list The guest list is a crucial component of any wedding. Try and gather a rough idea of numbers so that you can find your venue before sending out invites. You’ll want your venue locked in before people start saying yes to coming! You can always adjust by a few later down the line, but it’s important to gauge an idea of numbers early on. ### Time of year Time of year could really impact the type of venue you go for. Do you want a summertime garden wedding (with the possibility of a few British showers) or a winter wonderland? Decide on your preferred season and try and be flexible with your specific date. You may even be able to save money by holding the wedding on, say, a thursday as opposed to a much-in-demand saturday. ### Food Naturally, you want the food to be outstanding at your wedding. Talk to your venue choices and try and arrange a tasting. Work with them to create a bespoke menu for your special day. If you’re going for a [dry hire venue](https://hirespace.com/Top/London/Dry-Hire-Venues-London) without an in-house caterer, make sure you do your research before commiting to a supplier. ### Style Once you’ve locked in the most important details, it’s time for the fun bit - choosing your theme, style and decor! Again, work with the venue to see how they can help out with dressing the venue, if possible. ### Use Hire Space We can help with all of the details when looking for the perfect venue, so to save yourself time, effort and money, make sure to [get in touch](https://hirespace.com/Ask-An-Expert) with our experts for more assistance!
