What is the capacity of the Orchard Room for wedding receptions?

Are there mandatory additional costs beyond the venue hire fee?

All food and beverages must be provided through accredited caterers, or you can bring external caterers for a £535-£550 + VAT accreditation fee (pricing mentioned varies between sources).
Can we bring our own caterer for our wedding?
Yes, but external caterers require a £535-£550 + VAT accreditation fee and must complete an approval process. They need adequate food safety and hygiene scores, risk assessments, PAT test certificates for electrical equipment, and current Public Liability Insurance. The kitchen is prep-only, so caterers must bring all service equipment.
Can we hold our wedding ceremony at The Glass House?
Yes, but you must separately check availability with the Hackney Registrar Team to conduct your ceremony. You can request a registrar by visiting hackney.gov.uk/approved-premises and completing a booking form. The venue can provisionally hold one time slot for you for 5 days while you arrange the registrar.
What bar and drinks options are available for weddings?
The venue offers in-house drinks-only options and comprehensive bar services, with details available at hackneyvenues.com/drinks. This option is available for select venues only. All alcoholic beverages must be provided through the venue or accredited caterers - you cannot bring your own alcohol.
What unique features does The Glass House offer for weddings?
The venue features retractable skylights that create an outdoor feeling while maintaining covered security at the press of a button. When booking the Orchard Room, you get exclusive access to a private courtyard, allowing you to blend indoor and outdoor elements for your celebration.
How far in advance can we book and what is the booking process?
The venue can provisionally hold time slots for 5 days while you arrange other requirements like registrars. Open day viewings are available (drop-in events on Saturdays from 11am-3pm), and private viewings can be booked through hackneyvenues.as.me/TheGlassHouse with availability updated weekly up to one month in advance.
Can we bring our own entertainment like bands or DJs for our wedding?
Yes, you can bring your own band, but you must provide public liability insurance, risk assessments, and PAT tests for any equipment requiring electrical plugs. The venue does not provide DJ equipment or services - you would need to arrange this separately through your own suppliers.
