Wedding Venues With Vertigo
You should be feeling as high as a kite on your wedding day (with the emphasis on feeling, not, you know, being), but for that extra buzz nothing beats a spectacular view from way up high. If you are looking for a venue with an amazing view for your wedding, here are four places that come with free vertigo.
With an iconic backdrop and twenty-nine floors up, Altitude 360 is the largest riverside venue with views of the heart of London. The panoramic views of the city from Millbank Tower contrast with an elegant interior of bright-white marble floors and black leather furnishings.
The versatile space can accommodate a small private ceremony up to a large wedding reception for 600 people with its sound-proof, retractable walls. This venue has played host to celebrities including The Kooks, Jeremy Clarkson and Prince Andrew. So, The Kooks. Just.
How much to hire: 0800-1800hrs £9,000, 1800-0000hrs £15,000
What you can see: London’s most famous landmarks, including The London Eye, Houses of Parliament, Big Ben and The River Thames. People looking like ants.
View rating: 9/10
The Spinnaker Tower, Portsmouth
At Britain’s tallest wedding venue, ceremonies take place 105 metres above the harbour where guests can take in panoramic views stretching up to 23 miles while enjoying a champagne reception and canapés.
Following the ceremony, the red carpet treatment continues on a decorated view deck where newlyweds and their family and friends can enjoy a wedding breakfast banquet while soaking up the idyllic scenery. Perhaps best of all, you can have the tower lit up to a colour of your choice, ask for pink with a dark purple top and see what they say.
How much to hire: £1,100 – £3,600 for up to 70 guests.
What you can see: Panoramic views of the historical Portsmouth harbour and the Solent, twice voted Britain’s sexiest river.
