St Georges Town Hall

St Georges Town Hall is a recently renovated building located in the heart of Shadwell. We have two ceremony rooms allowing you to have your ceremony in the space that is right for you.
Our larger room, The Tower Suite, is an old town hall able to seat up to 120 guests and is perfect for those who wish to celebrate in grand style in an exquisite setting. There is direct access to a dressing room for those who are electing to have an enhanced ceremony with us, where you can do any last minute touch-ups. Note that bags and coats must be brought into the ceremony room.
Our smaller room, The Hamlet Suite, is located just off the main grand staircase and with a capacity of 20 guests; it is perfect for those who wish to have a more intimate ceremony and features a neon sign wishing you a happily ever after.
After your ceremony, there are opportunities for photography on the grand sweeping staircase which leads you to our gardens at the rear, with historic architecture providing the perfect backdrop for your ceremony photos.

These are the most basic ceremonies and have extremely limited availability.
If you chose to have a civil partnership in our Register Office, then you will only be signing the schedule with your witnesses - there would be no ceremony.
If you chose to have a marriage in our Register Office, then you will have the most basic ceremony that will ask you to say the minimum words necessary to form a marriage.
