Recently renovated and immaculately presented, The Dutch Hall is a Grade II listed church in Central London with a colourful and vibrant history dating back to the 16th century. Your guests will immediately feel welcome and at ease in these familiar yet quirky surroundings, and reminders of the building’s religious aspects are everywhere. The stained glass windows are so beautiful and ornate that they will become a talking point, and the original stone flooring adds a sense of antiquity and drama to this already atmospheric place.
This is a fantastic wedding venue for the modern Londoner with a taste for the traditional. Church weddings are becoming less and less common in the 21st century, but you can still have access to the typical features associated with a traditional wedding, without having to personally involve the man upstairs during proceedings at The Dutch Hall.
Much of the building’s original character remains, although the addition of modern design features has given this glorious space a well-deserved new lease of life. Spectacular tall stained glass windows and dauntingly high ceilings make The Great Hall a beautiful reminder of this unusual venue’s past, and with room for a grand total of 380 standing guests, it is The Dutch Hall’s largest space available for hire. Your guests will have to pick their jaws up from around their shoes upon entering this space – and it is already so spectacular, that only minimal decorations are really required to personalise and customise the room. Having said that, if you wanted to go all out with a theme or use lighting to implement your colour scheme, this is most certainly the venue to do it. You have the versatility, the space and the ready-made beautiful canvas on which to build your event, and dramatic flairs are welcomed into this spectacular space.
There is also a fully functioning and state of the art kitchen on site, and self-catering is something that can be negotiated with the venue. However, The Dutch Halls has catered for some seriously high-end events in the past, and with a wealth of experience and contacts, they’re sure to find you a menu to suit your needs. There is also the added bonus of having a dedicated preparation space. The Library is used to holding lavish private dining sessions for up to 12 people, but once the bulk of the furniture has been easily removed, provides the perfect space for bridal preparations and storage.
