Whether you dream of a royal ceremony or a chic celebration, planning a wedding in London requires thoughtful organization. Here is a step-by-step guide to help you make it perfect:

1. Choose the best time for your London wedding: The ideal wedding seasons in London are spring (April–June) and early autumn (September–October) when the weather is mild, and the city’s parks are in full bloom. Summer (July–August) brings longer days but also peak tourist crowds. Winter (November–March) is perfect for festive weddings.
2. Pick the perfect venue: London has countless stunning venues to suit all kind of wedding dreams. But the only thing is – the best venues are always pre-booked from a long time. So plan and book as early as you can.
3. Handle the legalities: London weddings require giving notice at a registry office at least 29 days before the wedding. Apart from that, there are also a lot of other rules for cCivil and religious weddings. Paperwork is a huge challenge if you have no experience in it. At TWS, we take care of all the legal formalities, making the process stress-free.
4. Work with a local wedding planner: London’s vast selection of vendors, venues, and logistics can be overwhelming. A professional wedding planner in London ensures everything runs smoothly – from securing top venues to arranging transportation and managing last-minute details. We have exclusive access to some of the city’s most sought-after locations and vendors to make your wedding bells true.
5. Book the best vendors: London is home to world-class caterers, florists, photographers, and entertainment options. Whether you want a Michelin-starred menu, a classical string quartet, we connect you with the best in the industry.
6. Arrange guest accommodations & experiences: Turn your wedding into an unforgettable London getaway! Arrange for classic afternoon teas, Thames river cruises, or private tours of Buckingham Palace to make it extra special for your guests.

• Many of London’s most iconic venues, especially historic ones require special permits and have strict regulations on noise levels, guest numbers, and end times. It is even more so with Westminster Abbey or St. Paul’s Cathedral.
• London’s weather is famously moody, even in summer. A bright, sunny morning can turn into a rainy afternoon within minutes. If you are planning an outdoor wedding in locations like Kew Gardens or a Thames riverside venue, have a contingency plan with covered areas or indoor alternatives.
• London’s traffic restrictions and limited parking can make things even more difficult. Some venues in central areas (like Covent Garden or Mayfair) might not even allow direct vehicle access.
• Prestigious London venues often require a full venue buyout for weddings, meaning you might need to reserve the entire space, even if you are only using certain areas.
• Some of London’s most photogenic spots, such as Tower Bridge or The British Museum, require special permits for professional photography. Popular public spaces, like Trafalgar Square and the South Bank, might have limitations on wedding shoots during peak tourist hours.
• London is always alive with major events, from Wimbledon in July to the Chelsea Flower Show in May. These can lead to soaring hotel prices and heavy venue demand.
• Unlike countryside estates where parties can go on all night, many London venues, especially those in residential areas, have strict curfews.

• Arrive in true London style in a vintage Rolls-Royce or even a regal horse-drawn carriage if your venue allows it. For a riverside venue, you could arrange a boat arrival along the Thames too!
• London’s skyline is breathtaking. So why not incorporate it into your wedding? Host your reception at a rooftop venue overlooking landmarks like Tower Bridge or the Houses of Parliament for a quintessential London backdrop.
• British cuisine has evolved far beyond traditional fare, and a London wedding is the perfect place to showcase it. Serve up sophisticated twists on classics like beef Wellington canapés, gourmet fish and chips, or a refined afternoon tea with delicate finger sandwiches, scones, and Pimm’s cocktails.
• London is steeped in regal history, so why not embrace it? Consider a venue with royal ties, like Kensington Palace or Hampton Court.
• From classical string quartets playing Beatles ballads to a jazz band, live entertainment is a must for any London wedding. A bagpiper (a nod to British tradition) could be a fun surprise.
• Send guests home with a touch of London, like mini bottles of Pimm’s, custom-made biscuits from Fortnum & Mason, or personalized leather goods from a heritage brand.
• Extend the wedding celebrations with a pre-wedding afternoon tea at Claridge’s, a private Thames river cruise, or a post-wedding brunch at an iconic London market like Borough Market or Covent Garden.
