Overview

Set in the heart of St James’s, just moments from Piccadilly Circus, Charing Cross and Embankment stations, {10-11} Carlton House Terrace is one of London’s most prestigious wedding venues. These magnificent Grade I-listed Georgian townhouses combine Regency grandeur with breathtaking views across The Mall, St James’s Park, Horse Guards Parade, Big Ben and the London Eye, creating an unforgettable backdrop for your wedding day.

Licensed to host civil ceremonies and wedding receptions, the venue offers ten elegant event spaces that can be hired individually or combined, giving you the flexibility to create anything from an intimate celebration to an exclusive multi-room wedding. With capacity for up to 125 seated guests, live bands and DJs welcome, and a late licence available until 2:00am, your celebration can continue well into the evening.

From the moment guests arrive, they’re immersed in timeless elegance. The sweeping black marble staircase and ornate ceilings of No. 10 create a dramatic first impression, while the Wedgwood Blue entrance hall of No. 11 offers a warm welcome with classic English charm. Built in 1831 on the site of Carlton House, once the residence of the Prince Regent (later King George IV), the townhouses are steeped in British history while offering modern flexibility for contemporary weddings.

Every room has its own distinctive character. The magnificent Wolfson Room hosts elegant receptions beneath sparkling brass chandeliers. Included with its hire, the adjoining Gallery offers a bright, contemporary space perfect for drinks receptions or additional entertaining.

Elsewhere, the beautifully proportioned Council Room features gardenia-panelled walls adorned with royal portraits beneath an ornate ceiling and connects seamlessly with the historic Music Room, once part of the private residence of four-time British Prime Minister William Gladstone. Original decorative plasterwork, carved stone fireplaces, grand chandeliers and period detailing make these spaces particularly memorable.

The Radhakrishnan Room is another standout, filled with natural light from its dual aspect windows and showcasing pieces from the Academy’s distinguished art collection beneath elegant corniced ceilings. The Reading Room offers a more intimate atmosphere, complete with impressive archways, floor-to-ceiling bookcases and carefully curated artworks.

Large bay windows throughout the venue flood every room with natural light while framing spectacular views across some of London’s most iconic landmarks, providing stunning photo opportunities throughout your day.

Whether you’re planning an elegant ceremony, sophisticated wedding breakfast or lively evening celebration, {10-11} Carlton House Terrace offers exceptional service, remarkable heritage and one of London’s most prestigious addresses for an unforgettable wedding.

The Carlton House is home to The British Academy, it's an elegant venue overlooking St. James's Park in the heart of London, perfect for a wedding. It was such an enjoyable day, rounded off with a fabulous evening party. Thanks so much!

We held our wedding ceremony at Carlton House Terrace in September. We always dreamed of a “London wedding” And wanted our ceremony to be formal, yet different, with a relaxed but elegant twist. As soon as we walked in to the building, we instantly knew it was the right venue for us and what we wanted. The location was superb, with breath-taking views over London’s landmarks, which the guest loved! The staff and Event Managers were fantastic from start to completion and really cared about the day. The experience was really personable and we both felt that the two Event Managers went that extra mile to make the day completely seamless. Their passion and drive was recognised by not only us, but each one of our guests (who still make comments to this day about how wonderful the location and venue was!). The catering was fantastic, we provided afternoon tea for the guests before the ceremony, the food was exquisite and beautifully presented. All aspects of our catering were simply wonderful, from the waiting staff to the attention to detail with the food and presentation. The venue was flexible and accommodating, allowing us to be creative with our plans and dreams for the day. We fell in love with the venue, the people who work there and the building and I believe we found a hidden gem in one of London’s best and central locations. The guests loved reading about the history of the building, the stunning rooms, breath-taking views and brilliant staff. I cannot thank you all enough for a really special experience and a wonderful day we will never forget!

This is a real gem of London tucked away on a quiet street but only minutes walk from Piccadilly Circus and Trafalgar Square. The venue is looked after excellently, with amazing original features and stunning views from every room, an eclectic array of artwork, and TWO beautiful grand staircases. As it's a private building events held there feel very exclusive. The service is top notch and really great food - breakfast/lunches and delicious fine dining dinners too. History of the building is fascinating also. Love it!

This was perfect for our wedding, in central London - a quiet calm zone just moments away from Piccadilly Circus and Green Park. The most helpful staff ever and a great Venue Coordinator! It was perfect. The room, the space to take different shots, it was quiet and private for our friends and family. Beautiful building character and rooms to choose from with views.

Everything ran so smoothly despite the typical English weather! The service was fantastic - we had many lovely comments about the food, wine and venue. Thanks for making it our best day!

What a beautiful and lovely day this was! Some days everything clicks into place, something happens and everything seems to effortlessly go perfectly. This was one of those days.

We had the privilege of having our wedding at Carlton House and it was THE most incredible day of our lives. All of the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a magical day and indeed everything was absolutely perfect. From the moment I first made the initial enquiry with Alex, he has provided the most amazing service and nothing was ever too much trouble. Thanks also to Stephanie who did a fantastic job liaising with the catering team and ensuring everything was exactly to our liking. Gwen was also exceptional in his level of service on the day and made sure that all our guests were well looked after. Thank you so much to all CH staff and we hope to return in the future for another special occasion!
