It is a good idea to start looking for a wedding venue at least 9-12 months in advance, especially if you have a specific date in mind and are hoping to find an affordable venue in a popular location like Canary Wharf or Shoreditch. This is because popular venues can book up quickly, especially on weekends and during peak wedding season. To increase your chances of finding an affordable venue in East London, you may want to consider booking a weekday wedding, especially Mondays through Thursdays, or getting married during the off-peak season like fall and winter months. You may also want to consider venues that are slightly less popular or less well-known, as these may be more affordable.
Your Guide to Hiring Affordable Wedding Venues in East London
When hunting for wedding venues in East London that won’t break your budget, consider some of the many options in the following districts:
- Barking. Bustling and up and coming area of London, The area offers many exciting hotels, and restaurants, including some near the Essex riverside.
- Hackney. Well known for its canal, and expansive parks such as London Fields, Dalston Eastern Curve Garden, and Clissold Park. You can also be sure to find great and inexpensive restaurant venues for your wedding, look at Richmond Rd or Queensbridge Rd for some great choices.
- Redbridge. An often overlooked part of London, with both natural beauty and urban awesomeness. Its green spaces are dominated by Wanstead Flats, part of the ancient Epping Forest. Check out the High Road for some great pubs.
- Havering. A once-rural district known for its suburbs and close proximity to London via easy public transport. The area has several golf clubs available for hire for a larger wedding reception with a limited budget. Check out the restaurant scene, especially around Highstreet near Hornchurch.
- Waltham Forest. An area known for its artistic vibe means that a lot of studios - which can be great for inexpensive weddings - can be found here. Check out Hoe St in Walthamstow for a wide selection of restaurants and cafes. Higham Hill Park and Langford Park offer some great options also.
Consider restaurants, breweries, or pubs for their cheap venue hire. You might also book a community hall or a public space. If you are looking to organize an Indian wedding, these could be a great option as these venues could be decorated to your own taste. Also, take a look at terraces, parks, or garden spaces, these could offer a cheap option for your wedding if the weather cooperates.
