Your London Wedding - Sep/Oct 2019 (Issue 67)

GREENWICH & LEWISHAM 15  REGIONAL VENUES THE OLD ROYAL NAVAL COLLEGE The Old Royal Naval College has amazed and delighted visitors for more than 300 years. Located at the heart of Greenwich, this World Historic site is best known for its recently restored Painted Hall, often referred to as the UK’s answer to the Sistine Chapel. Indeed, couples who choose to tie the knot here can hold their ceremony in this prestigious Baroque, hand-painted masterpiece – there’s room for some 300 guests to witness your vows in the Painted Hall. Alternatively, the Admirals House is an intimate setting situated on the River Thames and can hold 80 loved ones, or the Queen Mary Undercroft beneath the chapel is licensed for up to 150 friends and family. Wedding breakfasts can be held in the Painted Hall or Queen Mary Undercroft (with capacities of 400 and 60 respectively) and the Queen Mary Undercroft is ideal for dancing – with the adjacent Victorian Skittle Alley providing period entertainment to boot.
