St Georges Town Hall
St Georges Town Hall is a recently renovated building located in the heart of Shadwell in East London. We have two ceremony rooms allowing you to have your perfect London ceremony in the space that is right for you.
The Tower Suite
Our more traditional room, The Tower Suite, is an old town hall able to seat up to 200 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.
The Hamlet Suite
Our more contemporary 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 large flower frame for that iconic signing photo, and 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.
