B&H Buildings is fully licensed for wedding ceremonies, and they have two perfect spaces for your ceremony for up to 110 people. Both are filled with light and plants, making them stylish and tranquil places to host your ceremony.

Reception

The entire building can be yours for the day, hosting up to 110 guests for dinner or 180 guests for a reception, with all spaces boasting carefully curated interiors, lush hanging baskets, and numerous windows to allow for an abundance of natural light. Each space is already romantically decorated for the occasion.

Food & Drink

The B&H team prides itself on working with fresh and seasonal produce, presented with signature elegance and charm. Their chefs will work closely with you to create your perfect menu, from canapés and light bites to a formal sit-down dinner and late-night snacks.

Nestled in the heart of historic London, perfectly placed between the City and the West End, Clerkenwell has a rich history and is a beautiful setting for a city wedding.

We wanted to say – from the bottom of our hearts – thank you. It was such a special day for us, and it was completely seamless. We’ve had universal praise for the food; the restaurant team took care of us amazingly, and the bar team were absolutely fantastic. Really, it went just as we would have hoped, so thank you so much.

STEPHEN & WILL

Thank you to you and the team at B&H for making Saturday so perfect for us. It was everything we wanted, and although it felt like a bit of a whirlwind, everyone was very complimentary of the food, drinks and service. We really appreciate the efforts everyone put in, and if we could do it all again, then we would.

Just wanted to send you a quick email before I’m whisked away for some more family activities. A huge thank you from Stephen and myself. The wedding reception was absolutely perfect. Literally everything went to plan and we couldn’t have been happier. We’ve had so many of our guests comment on how incredible the food and drinks were and how beautiful the venue looked. Still buzzing from such an incredible day/eve and wanted to let you know asap. And lastly, thank you for all your patience and help to make this such a special event for us. Much appreciated, and we were so delighted with everything. Big hugs!
