The Old Marylebone Town Hall. I call her Old Fait The Old Marylebone Town Hall.

I call her Old Faithful. 

I’ve shot here 12 times since 2023. I worked there 5 times in 2025 alone. 

It’s safe to say I know this venue. I’ve now shot in every room. 🎊

The vibe at Marylebone is: classic London wedding. Intimate, stylish, timeless.

What makes it unique is the stunning architecture - both inside and out, but more importantly it’s the team at TOMTH that make this venue what it is. 

They are incredibly dedicated, knowledgeable and friendly to everyone who walks through those big wooden doors. 

I’ve never felt more welcomed at a venue and that is down to their Ushers & Registrars. Big shout out to Dil and Bruce who I’ve worked with a number of times.

My couples typically have their ceremony at TOMTH followed by a lovely meal in a nearby restaurant with their guests. 

Some couples have opted for the champagne toast, where they’ve celebrated in one of the rooms post-ceremony with a glass of bubbles, while others have opted to venture onto their reception venue to carry on the celebrations.

You can have as little as two guests all the way up to 100.

It really is as iconic as it looks. 

Dua Lipa thought so too 💅🏻
