Getting Married at The Greenhouses is one of the most magical choices a couple can make for an intimate London wedding. Tucked within the historic grounds of One Marylebone, this Grade I listed former church now houses a collection of botanical private dining spaces unlike anything else in the city. I have had the pleasure of photographing a wedding here and it remains one of the most enchanting venues I work with.
What Makes The Greenhouses So Special
The Greenhouses sit within One Marylebone, just moments from Old Marylebone Town Hall, which makes it the perfect reception choice for couples marrying nearby. Moreover, each of the five individually designed spaces is filled with vibrant, ever-changing floral displays and twinkling lights, creating a warm and immersive atmosphere that feels worlds away from a typical London dining room. The venue is comfortably heated in winter and cooled in summer, which means it works beautifully as a wedding setting in any season.
The Wedding Spaces
The Greenhouses accommodate truly intimate celebrations, from as few as two guests up to around 30 to 40 for a seated wedding breakfast or standing reception. Additionally, each private room can be tailored to the couple’s vision, with options to upgrade furniture, tableware and glassware to match their personal style. The largest of the greenhouses works particularly well for couples who want both a cocktail reception and a seated dinner in the same space, while the smaller rooms suit a truly intimate gathering of close family and friends. The venue is also licensed for ceremonies, so couples can exchange vows surrounded by greenery before moving straight into their celebration.
Why Photographers Love This Venue
As a London wedding photographer, what I love most about The Greenhouses is the texture and colour in every direction. Furthermore, the floral installations change with the seasons, which means no two weddings here ever look quite the same — spring brings soft pastel tones, while autumn fills the space with warm, rich colour. The combination of natural light, lush greenery and twinkling lights creates a romantic, almost storybook quality in the photographs, especially during an evening reception when the lights really come into their own.
