Testimonials

"The registrars were lovely people, they made us feel comfortable and they made our day feel very special."

B & A - June 2025

"Booking Islington Town Hall was an incredibly smooth process. Having details about each room within the building including capacity etc. made it easy to understand and the booking system was straightforward.

It allowed us to pick a date and time without any back and forth like our local town halls/registry office.

All staff were incredibly polite. The two ladies conducting our ceremony were lovely! They really helped make the day more perfect."

N & J - June 2025

"The Islington Town Hall is very beautiful and photographs nicely, it also has rooms for smaller weddings which we found suited our needs really well.

We found Islington Town Hall had excellent communication which left a big worry off the big day, we mostly knew what to expect and didn't leave us needing to ask a lot of questions.

The ceremony was conducted very well and everyone was really lovely.

Thank you so much for marrying us! We're very happy!"

G & E - June 2025

"Booking we saw it was pet friendly and this was fantastic as we absolutely loved bringing our dog.

The building is accessible which is important as I am disabled.

It was so easy to book and all the information was very clear.

The registrars David and Deborah were amazing and made the whole day so wonderful. To quote a guest “best wedding ceremony, I’ve ever been to"."

L & D - May 2025

"Since I was a little girl, I have watched 3 different members of my family get married at the Town Hall.
Each time I have imagined myself getting wed there.

As soon as my husband proposed to me, there was no other option in my mind than to call Islington Town hall.

Our registrars were the loveliest two ladies. They made us laugh and ease us into the process and moment. I am not a huge fan of public speaking, but our registrar Sarah helped me to feel really relaxed and confident.

The security guard on the day made me feel so safe and beautiful!
Nothing but comforting compliments and congratulations, which really made all the difference before the ceremony.

As we finished our ceremony, we fulfilled my dream of walking down the grand steps in the middle of the building (capturing beautiful photos) and then also down the steps out the front of the building (another dream of mine).

It was truly everything I had ever wanted and I cannot thank the staff, the venue and SayIdo enough. Thank you."

G & J - May 2025

"We had such a wonderful ceremony. So many guests commented about how beautiful the Council Chamber was and how much they enjoyed our fun and unique ceremony. It really was the London wedding of our dreams.

Our officiant was charming and conducted the ceremony so well. Staff members were so helpful in keeping me and my wife separated for our pre-ceremony meetings. A member of staff even helped my wife with her dress just before we descended the stairs for the confetti.

We had such a special day - please share our thanks with all the members of staff."

"The whole process was very easy to book and we loved the fact we were able to visit during an open day and ask questions.

We loved the intimate size of Room 99 and were lucky to discover pets are now allowed.

The whole ceremony was a dream. The two beautiful souls who conducted our marriage were both so nice and gentle and put us to ease. I remember looking at the officiant and thinking, you're making me feel calm!

Thank you for making our marriage a lovely experience and being passionate."

The booking process online was simple and the website included helpful information about the processes beforehand, such as registering our marriage.

The staff were lovely and made it feel very relaxed and not too formal. We had a wonderful day and got some beautiful photos inside and outside the building."

Looking at the many photos online and on Instagram of happy couples who had got married there made us even more sure that we'd picked the right venue. It's the best one!

Everyone was so warm and friendly. The whole venue was absolutely stunning... I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this venue to friends looking to have a Town Hall wedding."
