'Tis the season for proposals, so once you've stopped hyperventilating with excitement, it's time to think about the venue. As an extra-special Christmas treat we've chosen seven of the most romantic venues in and around London for a wedding you won't forget.
1. The Londoner
Experience the grandeur of The Londoner, the world's first Super Boutique Hotel, located in the heart of London's legendary square. This venue is home to a breathtakingly vast, pillar-less room with soaring heights of 5.8m (19ft) and an expansive floor space to host receptions for up to 800 people, 700 seated or 336 cabaret. The Londoner offers 350 exquisite bedrooms and suites, each with their own unique views of London. Discover a collection of restaurants and bars, including alfresco dining on the ground floor, a rooftop bar, a magnificent ballroom, private meeting and event spaces, an urban spa experience, and two Odeon Luxe screening theatres.
