💒 London Rowing Club – Putney

Location: Embankment, Putney, SW15 1LB

Why It’s Great:
Right on the river with views of boats gliding by, it’s full of charm without being overly polished. The main hall (The Long Room) is light, open, and welcoming — ideal for relaxed ceremonies and dinners. There’s a sense of history without it feeling stuffy, AND it opens out onto a balcony. The spot for champagne toasts and those candid golden hour shots or fun pics with friends.

Light-filled space = flattering photos all day
Intimate but not cramped
Fully private hire = no random pub-goers mid-vows
Easy access from central London
Moments from Putney High Street but feels peaceful
