Marriage

Getting married at the Register Office

At The Old Marylebone Town Hall we have four rooms where you can get married.

Read on for a description and photograph of each of the rooms. Please click on the photograph of each room to see a bigger image.

You can now also take a virtual tour of each room and the Old Marylebone Hall.

The Blue Marriage Room

This stately room is elegantly decorated with cream and lilac panelled walls, blue carpet and thirty blue upholstered seats. The layout of the seating is formal but the velvet draped windows lend plenty of light to lift the atmosphere and the room is set off with arrangements of fresh flowers. The maximum capacity of this room is thirty people.

Maximum of 30 people:

£90.00 (Mon to Sat up to 31st March 2009)

The Yellow Marriage Room:

This beautiful room combines the formality of the Blue Room with the informal cosiness of the Lord Mayor's Retiring Room. The panelled walls are decorated in shades of corn, gold and cream with a blue carpet and yellow upholstered seating. It is an ideal setting for small groups – twenty people maximum.

Maximum of 20 people:

£70.00 (Mon-Fri up to the 31st March 2009)

£90.00 (Saturday up to the 31st March 2009)         

The Reception Room:

This room has a wonderful ceiling with elaborate fretwork and cornicing. The luxurious blue velvet drapes and blue carpet complement the impressive wood panelling. This room has seating for seventy people with standing room for up to thirty more. Should the bride wish to make a grand entrance for her marriage, this room is perfect, with large double doors and a small aisle leading to the Registrar's table.

If you wish to hold your wedding in this room on a weekday, we will need to reserve it especially for you, but it is always available for weddings on Saturdays.

Maximum of 100 people – 70 seated: £270.00

The Purple Marriage Room:

With its long aisle and elegant décor, this recently refurbished room offers couples a traditional and stylish setting for their wedding.

With seating for up to eighty guests, this large room is decorated with lilac panelled walls, purple carpet and corn-coloured upholstered chairs. The original fireplaces at each end of the room have been uncovered and restored. Fresh flower arrangements add a touch of colour and provide a lovely backdrop for photographs. Above one fireplace is the City of Westminster crest and above the other a wonderful water colour and ink drawing of the building by its architect Sir Edwin Cooper.

Purple silk drapes with gold trimming adorn the windows, while the impressive art deco style luminaires cast a beautiful array of light across the room.

Maximum of 80 people: £260.00
