Horniman Conservatory Wedding Showcase

Join us for our Spring Wedding Showcase at the grade 2 listed Victorian, Horniman Conservatory.  A perfect place for couples dreaming of a wedding that feels elegant, relaxed and intimate, in a light-filled botanical setting.

Designed as an immersive experience rather than a traditional drop-in wedding fair, each guest session begins with cocktails & canapés, followed by a hosted welcome and live vendor Q&A before you meet our recommended partners, and then leave to explore the gardens.
