Your London Wedding - Nov/Dec 2019 (Issue 68)

& HACKNEY TOWN HALL Having recently undergone a multi million-pound refurbishment, this Grade II listed town hall’s Art Deco-style interiors are not to be missed. Think polished wood work, chandeliers and state-of-the-art glass roofed atria. Indeed, the light-flooded North Atria is the largest space available for ceremonies, and can accommodate parties of 200. Meanwhile, more intimate parties of between 100 and 148 nearest and dearest can avail themselves of the wood-panelled Committee Room or the Council Chamber. Alternatively, the Assembly Hall can be partitioned to seat 120 loved ones. Receptions can take place in either the Assembly Hall with its large dancefloor or in the North Atria or South Atria – with a maximum guest list of 250 seated friends and family in the Assembly Hall with dancefloor, 300 without.

The charming interiors of this 18 th -century mansion house elegantly complement its beautiful park setting. Each room, with its neutral tones and original sash windows granting views of the park, is bathed in natural sunlight. Wooden floors and a stunning spiral staircase give the feeling of grandeur but on an intimate scale. Ceremonies for up to 60 loved ones can take place in the first-floor Drawing Room, where the large windows and terrace grant 180˚ views over the New River and park beyond. Alternatively, the Dining Room can accommodate 50 friends and family or the second-floor New River Room and Church View Room can seat 30 nearest and dearest a-piece. The same spaces are available for receptions – the largest, the Drawing Room, can cater for 60 diners or 80 guests for a less formal affair. Ceremony licence?
