London Wedding DJs & The Venues That Deserve Them

 

Let’s not mess about. You’ve picked London for your wedding, which means you’re not after a field, a fairy light, and a folk band in tweed. You want class. Style. Something that says, 'We came. We wed. We partied.'

And here’s the thing – no matter how fancy your flowers or how pretty your Pinterest board, the one thing people will remember is this: was the music any good?

Enter: the Wedding DJ. But not just any wedding DJ. You want someone who knows the room, owns the booth, and doesn’t need a Spotify playlist titled ‘Big Day Bangers.’ You want someone who can fill a dance floor, handle a decent sound system, and drop a remix so perfectly timed it makes your gran neck a Jägerbomb.

So here’s our rundown of 10 London wedding venues – and the kind of music a premium DJ should drop in each.

 

The Ned, Bank

·       Vibe: Luxe, vintage glamour

·       Soundtrack: A mix of Aretha Franklin, jazzy edits, and smooth house. Slick, stylish, with just enough bass to rattle the chandeliers.

 

One Marylebone, Marylebone

·       Vibe: Grand and dramatic

·       Soundtrack: Start slow and sexy, build with disco, then unleash the funk. Think Studio 54 meets Strictly Ballroom.

 

Dartmouth House, Mayfair

·       Vibe: Refined and romantic

·       Soundtrack: An elegant courtyard and sweeping staircases. Time for Motown, Marvin Gaye, and a few surprise edits of Beyoncé just to keep it classy with a wink.

 

Hotel Café Royal, Regent Street

·       Vibe: Decadent and rock’n’roll

·       Soundtrack: Bowie, The Rolling Stones, then a flip into French disco house and full-on dance-floor euphoria.

 

Shoreditch Studios

·       Vibe: Industrial and edgy

·       Soundtrack: Think exposed brick, fashion types, and the scent of artisanal gin. Drop 90s hip hop, deep electronic vibes, and house music that doesn’t sound like it came off a wedding CD. No cheese allowed.

 

The Mandarin Oriental, Hyde Park

·       Vibe: Five-star

·       Soundtrack: Treat it like a Michelin-star DJ set. Lounge beats, big vocals, and some low-key deep house for dessert. Later? Full throttle party.

 

The Savoy, Embankment

·       Vibe: Timeless and glamorous

·       Soundtrack: You don’t go to The Savoy for subtle. You go for spectacle. Start with Gatsby-style swing, then take a sharp left into ABBA, Queen, and finally some banging house remixes. This is where elegance gets tipsy.

 

Claridge’s, Mayfair

·       Vibe: Iconic and ultra-refined

·       Soundtrack: One of the finest hotels in the world. You DJ here, you bring your A-game. Smooth jazz to start, soul grooves by dinner, and a jaw-dropping dance set that somehow manages to include both Chic and Calvin Harris.

 

Bluebird Chelsea

·       Vibe: Modern, relaxed luxury

·       Soundtrack: You’ll want to play sun-soaked Ibiza sets, soul edits, and dance floor tunes with just the right amount of sing-a-long hits.

 

The Lanesborough, Hyde Park Corner

·       Vibe: Pure drama

·       Soundtrack: Classical for the champagne reception, elegant house for the dinner, and a late-night switch to glamorous vocal anthems that feel like royalty letting their hair down.

 

Why You Need a Proper DJ

Let’s get one thing clear: the music is not just the cherry on top – it’s the engine. The heartbeat. Without it, your London wedding is just a very expensive dinner with awkward clapping.

A great wedding DJ doesn’t just ‘press play.’ They curate. They guide. They rescue the party when Uncle Nigel requests the Macarena.

So if you’re booking any of these venues – or something just as stunning –don’t skimp on sound. Book a wedding DJ who knows the difference between background noise and an unforgettable night.

Someone who understands tempo, tension, transitions, and how to make 150 people scream to a remix of Fleetwood Mac.
