A grand hotel beside Westminster
Corinthia London stands on Whitehall Place, with views towards Westminster, Trafalgar Square and the Thames. Weddings are held under one roof: the ceremony rooms, the dining, the spa and 279 bedrooms, of which 62 are suites and seven are penthouses. The wedding team plans each celebration with the couple, from the choice of room and menus to floral design.
The Ballroom
One of the grandest ballrooms in central London, restored to its original Victorian splendour, with floor-to-ceiling windows by day and glittering chandeliers by night. It measures 21.4 by 13.2 metres, has its own entrance on Whitehall Place, a spacious pre-function area and a dedicated pantry. It holds up to 350 for a reception, 250 for a ceremony and 180 for a banquet.
The Courtroom
A crescent-shaped room of high ceilings, chandeliers and floor-to-ceiling windows that fill it with natural light, with a pre-function area beside it. It measures 21.2 by 8.4 metres and holds up to 170 for a reception, 120 for a ceremony and 90 for a banquet.
The Nelson and Codrington rooms
The Nelson Room, the largest function space on the Mezzanine, suits an intimate ceremony or dinner for up to 70 at a reception or 40 at a banquet. The Codrington Room, with its statement arched window, seats up to 22 for a private wedding dinner. Both are named for admirals of Trafalgar.
Private dining for the wedding breakfast
Smaller wedding breakfasts can be held in the Northall private dining room, in Rosetta, a private room for up to 18 guests (up to 20 in a cosy set-up), or in the private room at Kerridge's Bar and Grill, which seats up to 16 round a table made by the craftsman Jolyon Oliver.
Menus, cakes and cocktails
The hotel's chefs write each menu with the couple, from canapés to a candlelit banquet. Its pâtissiers make the wedding cake, and its mixologists design signature cocktails to suit the couple's taste. Corinthia also keeps a Little Black Book of trusted suppliers for everything else.
