London - looking for a relaxed 'non-wedding' venue, any ideas?

Hi

I am looking to get married next year in London and am looking for a wedding reception. We don't have a big budget but have managed to find lots of venues (pubs, restaurants and halls) that don't break the bank. It's just none of these places feel very us.

The closest I found was a little crepe and waffle house that was very relaxed and friendly, had outdoor fire pits and a real traveller feel....unfortunately it had used up all its allocated bookings for next yr.

It made me think though that I should try find a more relaxed venue. I was wondering if anyone knows of any similar independent restaurants or cafes in London?

Thanks for your help!

Have you looked at Hirespace.com they have details of some quirky spaces!! Good Luck and if you find something come back and tell everyone!

Am also looking but haven't gotten very far yet. Church halls can often have a more relaxed vibe?

You could try the Three Stags in Kennington Road near the Imperial War Museum. It is a little different and the food is divine. They have a function room upstairs for all kinds of events.

I grew up 2 mins from there! Small world

The ceremony may be too far away to make it work but will have a look at it. Thanks.

Look at Clifton nurseries in Little Venice. A hidden garden in the centre of London, going to a wedding there soon.
