Believe it or not, you can book Kensington Palace for your wedding.
as a property of the British royal family. And while your wedding won’t take place in the apartments of Kate Middleton and Prince William, or those of Prince Harry, there are plenty of regal choices to choose from, especially when it comes to the reception.Three of Kensington Palace’s gardens and lawns are available for outdoor wedding receptions. The East Front Gardens, which can fit 400 guests, underwent a major refurbishment in 2012.
However, if you are getting married in winter, the palace also has four indoor reception options. The Entrance Hall can fit up to 300 people and has a platform that works well for speeches. The Cupola Room is another, smaller, option. Though it can house as many as 100 for a reception, its trompe l’oeil ceiling mural is the main draw. Lastly, the King’s Gallery and King’s Drawing Room can also both be booked.
When it comes to the wedding ceremony itself, Kensington Palace’s The Orangery is the only area that is licensed for civil ceremonies and partnership ceremonies. Luckily though, the orangery is stunning. Built in 1704, it was created to be the winter garden for Queen Anne, who wanted to house her orange trees there. The area has a long tradition of hosting royal parties and balls.
