The Pump House was exactly what we were looking for in a wedding venue - it has a uniqueness that we could really capitalise on as well as being able to bring in our own catering and other suppliers.

Booked Function Suite at The Dickens Inn
Agata was extremely efficient and her professionalism and enthusiasm made planning our reception much easier. The Service we received from the Dickens Inn has been super, great value and that location is just fantastic. The Function Suite is a lovely space and our reception was well managed. The food is of great quality and the chef was able to accommodate a couple of last minute allergy requirements.
DJ
Booked Gardens at Laban Building
The venue's appearance is stunning and quirky, which is why we chose it. Also there is huge flexibility to take up as much or as little space as you need for your party using different areas or studios and to arrange a band, food, bar etc how it suits you. Sylvia was very helpful and accommodating throughout and oversaw every detail on the day so we could just enjoy our own party. Guests loved it.
