Why you should get married outside of London

As the capital of England, London has so many iconic venues, and there are many reasons why you should get married in this fab city.  However, let me just tempt you with a few reasons why a venue in the nearby countryside could be a better choice.  Let’s start with the obvious advantages.  Space, fresh air, calm and quiet.  Not too far from London, you will find an absolute treasure trove of fantastic venues. 

Just outside London

These range from rustic barns, modern barns, beautiful country estates and manor houses, quaint pubs, woodland venues, and quirky venues.  There’s even a Historic Royal Palace or two, and a 900 year old luxury castle to blow your mind!  These will provide a memorable setting for celebrating what is essentially the best day of your lives.  And believe me when I say that your guests will love these! 

I have handpicked a small selection here which I hope you will find delightful:

Get in touch

Please feel free to get in touch with me to ask about these venues, and if I can be of assistance to provide my services, do let me know. London is amazing on so many levels. As a mobile DJ, it’s very difficult to work there, so I hope you enjoy exploring a few miles outside!
