London Rowing Club is a truly fantastic venue and we were both so delighted with how our day went! The venue has real character with the classic rowing memorabilia and it’s location on the Thames, and looks amazing when it’s all set up. The layout and size of rooms I thought were perfect for our…

We had our wedding (ceremony+reception) at LRC in July, and the venue itself and the team we worked with were absolutely incredible! Everything on the day went without a hitch and we heard so many compliments on the location - our guests loved the balcony and the layout inside, which included…
