The Scene at InterContinental London Park Lane
Founded in 1975, InterContinental London Park Lane dominates the site of a former royal residence that was destroyed during the Blitz. Prominent and modern, the new building lies beside affluent Mayfair, straddling the corner between Hyde Park and Green Park.
Inside the event suites, floor-to-ceiling windows promise stunning views over these lush green spaces. So much so you’ll almost forget you’re at the heart of central London. Each function room has a chic contemporary feel, with lots of natural light and neutral décor that provides the perfect blank canvas for your own unique wedding décor. Though character is added through classic wooden panelling, decorative chandeliers and your choice of florals.
Planning to get ready for your big day at the hotel or spend the night after the reception? Then one of InterContinental London Park Lane’s Prestige Suites, complete with entertaining space, extra powder room and Nespresso machine, will provide a truly memorable stay.
InterContinental London Park Lane Wedding Ceremonies
With space for up to 80 guests and large windows on two sides, the Grays suite is a popular choice for smaller ceremonies. Meanwhile, the hotel’s expansive ballroom is ideal for bigger weddings and cultural celebrations with more guests. If you’d prefer to get to tie the knot off-site, Mayfair’s stunning Christ Church is only a couple of streets away. Permits are also available for ceremonies in the Royal Parks – perfect for a spring or summer wedding.
InterContinental London Park Lane Wedding Receptions
Depending on your preferred reception style and number of guests, the Ballroom and next-largest Grays Suite can be arranged in multiple different layouts, from banquet to cabaret-style configurations. The remaining Park Lane suites can be hired individually for smaller gatherings or opened up for larger parties thanks to their interconnecting design. You could even opt to have your ceremony in one suite before moving into another for the reception.
A wide choice of furniture, dinnerware and custom table decorations can be arranged to suit your theme. Mood lighting and sound systems are also available to help set the tone, with the option to add a stage and dancefloor to ballroom functions. The wedding planning team can even help you source a DJ if you like!
You’ll also be spoilt for choice when it comes to catering options, with renowned chef Theo Randall coordinating delicious wedding menus featuring seasonal ingredients. Dishes can be served in your event space or in the restaurant’s private dining rooms. Drinks receptions with tasty canapés are also popular, or you could keep things simple with cocktails at the Arch Bar.

Venue Testimonials
Amazing place and so clean. Went to the hotel for a wedding. The new couple hired two big rooms, and they were massive, and the food and drinks were just flowing. Loved it!
Yolandah C
Celebrated our 12th wedding anniversary at this fabulous hotel. From the time we arrived to check in to the time we checked out, we were treated like royalty. The room overlooked Hyde Park. The room itself was beautifully decorated and had plenty of amenities. The bed was comfortable. And the breakfast was fantastic. I cannot wait to go back again. And I would highly recommend the InterContinental Hotel.

Attended a special event at the InterContinental London Park Lane, and I have to commend the staff for excellent service and support during a busy night.
