Enchanting wedding & reception venue. Reborn following an £80m transformation

March 2010

Wedding venue London

Built in 1865, as Europe’s first ‘Grand Hotel’, The Langham recently completed an £80 million refurbishment programme ensuring that this prestigious location offers an impressive and regal backdrop for any special occasion.

The Langham, London is the ideal central London wedding venue location for the most elegant and sophisticated of wedding receptions offering extras above and beyond the regular wedding package to ensure the most memorable event.

Complete with its’ own wedding license, a Grand Ballroom for receptions, a private dining room, pink taxis or even a Rolls Royce, The Langham also offers a wedding coordinator service to help plan the special day. Able to assist with the wedding dress (including fittings in one of the hotel’s beautiful suites), wedding stationary suppliers and flower arrangements, The Langham helps to create a home-from-home experience for the bride-to-be in the lead up to the special day.

The Langham wedding experience starts as soon as the venue is booked with a gift from The Langham’s Book Butler service. The future bride and groom will receive the renowned Debrett’s Wedding Guide, the secret wedding weapon for couples providing the best tips and recommendations for the day. But it doesn’t just end when the last piece of confetti has fallen, as a special gift, couples will be welcomed back to the hotel to celebrate their first anniversary for a complimentary overnight stay in one of the hotel’s luxurious suites and to dine at The Langham’s renowned Landau restaurant.


Wedding Receptions

With the ability to host weddings for all religions as well as civil partnerships, The Langham boasts caterers to accommodate different food requests and needs including Kosher and Halal for any sized party in its decadent reception rooms.

Since the late nineteenth century, the Langham’s Grand Ballroom has been a legendary venue for lavish celebrations when it was tradition to lay a bridal red carpet across Langham Place from All Soul’s Church to the hotel’s doorstep. This Grade I listed space has now been lovingly restored with subtle touches, enhancing the delicate period details that echo its past. Authentic elements have been preserved from the dramatic renaissance pillars to the sparkling chandeliers and the fine hand-painted decorative detailing.

The Grand Ballroom comfortably accommodates up to 375 for a reception or 280 for a seated dinner. Immediately adjoining the Grand Ballroom is a newly created pre-function space The Portland Foyer, which accommodates 200 for a delightful champagne reception before guests are seated for dinner.

In Spring 2011, The Grand Ballroom’s elaborately draped windows, will open on to a terrace overlooking a tranquil courtyard – known as The Middleton Garden, one of the oldest private gardens in London dating back to the mid-eighteenth century.

Additionally small wedding parties can have exclusive hire of the glamorous David Collin’s designed Landau restaurant. For a more discreet event, The Landau’s private dining room Postillion is available for up to 16 persons. To provide a further exclusive element to the proceedings, The Langham is pleased to offer for all event spaces private entrances that lead guests directly to their reception.

Since its refurbishment, The Langham now has 380 elegant rooms in which to accommodate guests. The rooms have been designed to evoke an English residence, blending a sense of traditional style with contemporary elements.
