Hi all, after 20 years of being together, my partner and I are getting married next year. Does anyone have any ideas for a venue for the reception and or wedding. Its going to be close friends and family approx 70 people:)) any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Its not a big white wedding, the cheaper the better.

Thanks all(tu)

we got married in the old bar and gallery of a theatre in battersea - we hired it for ?50 (4 years ago). We had a crackpot humanist affair (so had to go and sign a register elesewhere) but it was great and really great not to be paying a fortune. We decorated the place with bunting and balloons and spent our cash on lovely food and wine.


What I mean to say is - do you need to have the "wedding" patr in the same venue - licensed venues are quite pricey (becasue they know their market). What about upsatairs at EDT or something - it looks pretty swish ....


good luck

I got married upstairs at the Trafalgar Tavern in Greenwich and I cannot recommend this enough. The staff there made the day go like clockwork and the food was fantastic. Private bar, enormous dance hall and beautiful surroundings. Don't be put off by advertised price either. I think ours came in at about ?7k less than their website indicates. They are booked up quite a lot so we went for a Thursday which made it possible to get the place and took about ?750 off the price! They have so many options for weddings it is untrue and can easily cater for 100 plus at the service and many many more in the evening! Sounds like I am working for them dunnit?
A work collegue is using Dulwich College (Library for the ceremony, Hall for the reception). It's pretty pricey and they've got a long waiting list - he's not getting hitched until next October - the first available slot at the time of booking about six weeks ago.

    • How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't he just be struck off, or the equivalent?
    • There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.

    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
