Guest Reviews of Wedding Reception Venues on Tagvenue

Booked Main Restaurant at Peron No4

Naz, Barbora and the peron team were amazing. 10/10 experience Professional, 5 star, accommodating and outstanding service The communication was great I appreciate it was a busy time over Christmas and thank you for dealing with a type A bride! 😂 The day ran so smoothly and whilst I’d love to say me and my husband were the stars of the show. We were outshined by the food haha! All of our guests kept gushing about how gorgeous the venue was, but more so, the food was impeccable from start to end. The evening guests were obsessed with the evening food bowls. I wish we would’ve have thanked the chefs who worked hard in the kitchen but we were having so much fun, dancing and being with our friends and family. If you’re looking for an intimate venue that also has the ability to have a great space for an evening reception too. Hands down Peron No.4 is the place for you.

Booked Whole Venue at The Williamson's Tavern

We had the most exceptional wedding party at the Williamson Tavern, a beautiful celebration of love in a very special proper London pub. The team were incredible from the moment we booked, helping us plan our special day so it would be just how we wanted it. They really went the extra mile to make sure we had the best time and we've enjoyed every minute of organisation, prep and of course the wedding party itself. This will always be a special pub for us and we look forward to re-visiting over the years :)

Booked 1st Floor at The Elgin

Caroline was very helpful when we were planning our wedding reception. The room was beautiful and the food was a real high point - we had so many compliments!

Booked Fifth Floor Bar at Harvey Nichols

We had a wonderful wedding party at the Fifth Floor Bar! The venue has a nice atmosphere, great sound (for the DJ), nice drinks and canapes, and opens late. Most of all, the staff were amazing both in the lead-up (Emily) and on the night (esp. Ivan and Mario) to make sure things ran well but also to make sure we all had a really fun night. Thanks so much!

Booked Fifth Floor Rooftop Terrace at Harvey Nichols

The Fifth Floor Rooftop Terrace and cocktail bar were perfect for our party of c70 people. We were looked after exceptionally well from the booking phase through event planning and by all the team on the night itself. The canapes were delicious, the wine list was good and the cocktails were spot on. We had a brilliant time.
