Inside, you are met with the impressive central rotunda and luxurious yet understated interiors. The Sky Lounge and Wright Room, in particular, are guaranteed to impress guests with floor to ceiling panoramic views – remarkable to even those without an interest in aviation. A dedicated events wing, separate from the main hotel entrance, is complete with its own lobby, perfect for welcoming your day guests in a more secluded and intimate style. The Wright Room, for up to 95 ceremony guests (80 guests for the wedding breakfast/then 125 evening), is located on the ground floor with bi-folding doors that stretch from floor to ceiling, giving unrivalled views of the runway. The room is a blank canvas that easily welcomes any style. The Sky Lounge, for up to 80 loved ones (80/110), is 50ft from ground level and is designed to leave a lasting impression with views of the airport. Its versatility means it can be designated for your personal use for the duration of your wedding to host and entertain guests from ceremony to dancefloor. The space boasts a private bar, private bathrooms and the option to expand into the fourth-floor atrium, giving you and your guests an impressive view down the central rotunda. As a premium event space at Aviator, the 4th Floor at Aviator can also be used exclusively with the Sky Lounge, the fourth-floor rotunda and atrium and 19 luxurious Sky Suites, creating a contemporary setting for sophisticated weddings. Finally Earhart, for up 40 guests from the ceremony to the evening, is located on the ground floor adjacent to the events lobby and easily adapts to different layouts whilst still allowing plenty of space to move around.
