Addington Palace

Weddings at Addington palace
 

We only ever have one wedding each day in the Palace, so we can offer you and your guest’s exclusive use of our venue in South London and its grounds for your special day (subject to minimum numbers being achieved).  This also includes use of the Winter Garden, which is licensed for Civil Ceremonies.

Following your ceremony, or on arrival from church, you may wish to have a drinks reception. Drinks can be served whilst photographs are being taken on the south lawn, or in the light and airy library, and lecture room overlooking the gardens.
 

The great hall is at the heart of the Palace with an exquisite French chandelier, hand-carved architrave, and silk wall coverings. The imposing fireplace offers a superb backdrop for the head table and all those memorable photographs of your reception meal.  The great hall can accommodate up to 150 guests, with the option for additional guests in the connecting music room and/or the gallery overhead.

Our wedding packages, are designed to incorporate the exclusive hire fee for our wedding venue in South London, catering and refreshments. Our Chefs specialise in European and Caribbean food.
