Claridge's London Wedding Ceremonies
Most wedding ceremonies at Claridge’s take place in the Ballroom, French Salon, or the Drawing Room. The Ballroom can host up to 240 seated guests and is a striking Art Deco space that has hosted state banquets and society weddings: the history and magic humming through the space. In 2020, the Ballroom underwent restoration and refurbishment, now blending subtle modern technologies with the beautiful 1920s glamour it’s renowned for.
The French Salon and Drawing Room are impressive Renaissance-style rooms that have intriguing detail at every turn. These adjoining rooms can be booked together for a larger space, with a popular option being the Drawing Room for ceremonies and the French Salon for dinner. Intimate ceremonies are catered for in the Mezzanine Suites on the sixth floor.
We especially love the Art Deco-style Highgrove Room that has capacity of 16-35 and comes with its own private reception and cloakroom.
If you’d prefer to get married off-site, Farm Street Church is a five-minute walk away.
Claridge's London Wedding Receptions

The French Salon and Drawing Room, though smaller in size, are no lesser in style and elegance and make for memorable settings for a wedding reception. Dry hire is available for Kosher catering, but only on Sundays.
