Marylebone & The City, London

A glasshouse of your own.

There are five glasshouses in the grounds of One Marylebone and two more in the City at Long Lane. Each one holds a single long table under a canopy of blossom, each is hired privately, and The Regency Greenhouse is licensed for civil ceremonies. Weddings here run to 8 to 30 guests. That is not a limitation the venue apologises for; it is the entire proposition.

Vows Under Glass, Then Straight To The Table.
Weddings at The Greenhouses

Vows Under Glass, Then Straight To The Table.

The Regency Greenhouse at One Marylebone is the licensed room. Guests take their seats beneath the glass, the vows are said with everyone close enough to hear them properly, and then the party moves next door to The Portland or The Devonshire, where the long table is already laid and the blossom is already hung. There is no coach transfer, no receiving line, no half hour of standing about. The whole day happens within a few metres of itself.

Middle Eastern, Cooked In-House, Shared.
The Table

Middle Eastern, Cooked In-House, Shared.

The kitchen is the venue's own, and the cooking is modern Middle Eastern: sharing plates that arrive in waves and run from starters through to desserts, alongside a curated wine, cocktail, beer and spirit list. Sharing food suits a table of twenty. It keeps hands moving, plates travelling and conversation going, and it means nobody spends the wedding breakfast in silence over a solitary plate.

Six Glasshouses

Five in the grounds at One Marylebone, two more in the City at Long Lane, each hired privately.

The Spaces

Licensed For Vows

The Regency Greenhouse holds the civil ceremony licence; the meal follows next door in The Portland or The Devonshire.

Weddings here are small by design. The largest room seats forty; the venue would rather host thirty.

The Scale

No Room Hire Fee

A minimum spend from £2,500, all of it on the Middle Eastern sharing menu and the drinks list.

A Glasshouse Built For Two.
The Lovers Greenhouse

A Glasshouse Built For Two.

Among the five greenhouses at Marylebone there is one that seats exactly two people. One table, candles, glass overhead and planting on all sides. It is where a good number of the couples who later marry here first came, and it says something honest about what this venue is for. Not scale. Proximity. The same instinct runs through the wedding rooms, which is why the largest seats forty and the venue would rather host thirty.

Pricing and What to Expect

A glasshouse of your own, for eight to thirty.

The Greenhouses works on a minimum spend rather than a hire fee. A civil ceremony and wedding reception at One Marylebone starts from £2,500, and a reception only at the City site starts from £1,650, with the whole allowance going on food and drink rather than on the room. A discretionary 12.5% service charge is added to the final bill, an optional celebration set-up service is £50, and additional hours are charged at £150. Registrar fees are paid separately to the register office. Figures are from the venue's own 2026 wedding brochure; the LWD team makes the introduction.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Greenhouses

Almost every London venue is built for scale and then shrunk to fit a small wedding. These are built small. Each glasshouse holds one long table under a canopy of blossom, is hired privately, and is sized for a party where everyone can hear the speeches without a microphone.

No. One Marylebone is a Grade I listed Soane events hall for several hundred guests. The Greenhouses is a separate business, a collection of glasshouses standing in the grounds, hosting private dining and weddings for 8 to 30 guests.

Modern Middle Eastern, cooked in-house. Sharing plates arrive in waves and cover starters through to desserts, so the table stays busy, plates keep travelling and nobody eats a solitary course in silence.

Guests take their seats in The Regency Greenhouse for the civil ceremony, the vows are said, and then the party moves next door to The Portland or The Devonshire, where the long table is already laid. There is no transfer and no waiting around.

At Marylebone: The Regency for a ceremony and up to 40, The Portland for 24, The Devonshire for 20. In the City: One Smithfield for up to 40, with natural light, a private mezzanine bar and its own entrance, or The Barbican Greenhouse for 18. The Lovers Greenhouse seats two.

No. The greenhouses stand within the grounds at One Marylebone, but no garden or terrace is offered for hire. The outdoor element is the planting immediately around the doors, which open on warm days.

There is no ballroom and no dedicated dancefloor. These are dining rooms, and the celebration is built around the table, the sharing plates and the drinks list. You can play your own music.

Close. Thirty people at most, blossom hanging low enough to touch, plates going round, glass overhead and the noise of London somewhere outside it. It feels less like a production and more like the best dinner party anyone has been to.
