One Great George Street
A Grade II listed Edwardian venue in Westminster with exclusive hire and seven licensed ceremony areas.
One Great George Street is a Grade II listed Edwardian building in Westminster, central London, a short walk from Big Ben. It is hired exclusively for each wedding.
Why it suits LGBTQ+ couples
One Great George Street is a strong fit for couples who want a landmark London setting with the building to themselves. Exclusive hire means no other event shares the space, and a dedicated wedding coordinator guides the planning. The venue offers an in-house menu or a list of external caterers, so you can choose food that reflects your own culture and taste.
Ceremonies
Seven areas are licensed for ceremonies. The Great Hall holds up to 400 guests. The Smeaton Room holds up to 150 and the Brunel Room up to 100, and the two connect. The Grand Staircase in the main hall, under a glazed dome, holds up to 150.
Receptions and food
The Great Hall seats up to 220 for a dinner dance and up to 400 for a standing reception. The Smeaton Room dines up to 100 and the Brunel Room up to 80. The in-house team provides food and drink, with a menu tasting included. External caterers can also be used, including those offering Indian, Pakistani, African, Caribbean, kosher and Asian cuisine, for a separate venue fee.
Getting there and the area
The building is on Great George Street, SW1P 3AA, next to Parliament Square, St James Park and Westminster Abbey. Westminster and St James Park stations are both close. The venue is promoted as having award winning accessibility.
A dedicated wedding coordinator is part of the service, and the venue publishes a brochure with its packages. The building has four domes and an Edwardian interior, so photographs in the Great Hall and on the Grand Staircase have plenty of character. The Smeaton and Brunel Rooms connect, which allows you to open up the space for a larger group. Because the venue is hired exclusively, you can set your own timings for the day without sharing corridors or entrances.
