Frequently asked questions
Are fireworks allowed?
Unfortunately not. Due to the venues being located directly under live TFL train lines, we do not allow fireworks or other explosives in or outside our venues.
Is confetti allowed?
Yes, bio-degradeble confetti is best both inside and outside the venue.
Do you charge corkage?
No corkage or buyout to use an external caterer or bar supplier. Can also buy alcohol as long the bar is managed by a licensed bar manager. Catering terms are also subject to the conditions of your caterer.
Is there accommodation on site?
No accommodation on site but there are many hotels near the venue. We can give recommendations if you need to.
Can we use our own caterers?
Yes. We give couples the freedom to work with a caterer of your own choice. We can also make some suggestions and you can go for a ‘no obligation to book’ tasting with one of our recommended suppliers. Unlike some dry hire venues, we do not charge a buyout fee if you hire a caterer that is not on our recommended catering list.
Are candles allowed?
Yes, candles can be used inside or outside our venues. Candles can also be hung from the lighting truss. All candles must be in a jar or vessel which is higher than the tip of the flame. Please discuss with our venue manager prior to the booking.
How long is the hire period?
10am to midnight. Late extensions are available for an additional fee.
What time does the reception need to finish?
Midnight but late TENS extensions are available for £300 per hour.
Can we have exclusive use of the venue?
Yes.
Are there noise restrictions if we have a live band?
Studio 1 has a 82dbA sound restriction. The PA can be used for speeches and ceremony music through a mixing desk (which can be hired from us) or our Ipad (please ask if you need it). During receptions, we generally only allow live acoustic music and speeches in Studio 1 playing through the PA. We do not allow live bands or DJs to perform in Studio 1. The main party is held in Studio 2 which is sound proofed for louder music and is where live bands or DJs can perform from. The door between Studio 1 and 2 can be left open so guests have the option to move away from the load music in Studio 2 during DJ sets or live band performances. Studio 2 has a 98dbA sound restriction. The PA can be used for bands or DJ’s. 98dbA is almost equivalent to the volume in a nightclub. The World Health Organisation advises event venues to restrict levels to under 110dbA to avoid hearing damage and recommends limiting volume to between 95 and 98dbA.
Where can guests park?
There are several local carparks but the venue is located close to various TFL metro and overground services at Old Street Station, Shoreditch High Street Station and Liverpool Street Stations. There are also many 24 hour busses that service Shoreditch.
Can we have the wedding ceremony outdoors?
Generally all ceremonies and receptions take place in the venue. There is a large courtyard at Shoreditch Studios which can be used by guests until 8pm. This is usually only used for photos and as a space for drinks between ceremony and reception. After 8pm there is an alternative laneway for smoking and venue exit.
