Weddings

We are based in south London and were looking for a reasonably priced local venue with outdoor space for our wedding reception in April. We found the Bank of England Sports Centre (on this site, I think) and immediately felt very comfortable with Jo Blythe, the weddings coordinator, who genuinely cares about every detail of your big day and made the process fun, with minimal stress. The food was unique and exquisite, and Toby the chef was eager to accommodate our suggestions from the delicious tasting. We supplied our own decorations for the room to give it that personal touch, and the team worked hard and were attentive to every detail in setting everything up. We arranged our function plan with the very efficient Cathy, Jo Thorpe and Tony, and the Centre also has contacts for a number of excellent suppliers including the florist Carole Martin, who did our flowers and table decorations. We had some excellent feedback from our guests. To sum it up, this is from an email I sent to the venue after the event: The reception was amazing. The room looked just beautiful, the food was fabulous, the staff were very helpful and the organisation of everything has been seamless!!! Thank you so much to Jo, Jo, Cathy, Tony and the other staff involved - Hassan, Sian etc who set up the room so perfectly. Although I would say this as it was my wedding, there was an extra-special edge to this event.
