About the company
Kensington Palace has functioned as a palace for young royals for over 300 years. It has been the backdrop to parties, banquets and celebrations and continues to be so.
Surrounded by parkland, Kensington Palace offers a welcome retreat from the nearby hustle and bustle of London. Its understated elegance makes the palace an ideal companion to the Royal Parks' tranquil gardens and ponds. The State Apartments are incredibly exclusive with only 20 events able to take place there every year. In addition, until the end of 2022, we will have the large and blank canvas Pavilion able to host 350 guests seated. And we are excited to announce that the Orangery will be reopening for dinners, receptions and parties in the summer of 2023!

FAQ's
The best wedding we have done was a young couple who chose to have an intimate wedding in the state apartments followed by a large celebration in the pavilion. They had lots of aspects that were really personal to them, the flowers were stunning with large floral curtains and displays and a mirrored dancefloor. They really liked entertainment so they had lots of acts such as magicians, dance acts as well as band and DJ.
Just because the venue is historic don't feel your decor has to be traditional. Some of the most amazing events, table-scapes and experiences have mixed the modern with the historic backdrop.
Beautiful, intimate, an oasis.
We have done a number of high profile events but we do respect our client privacy. However, we do make sure that every client receives the same level of service from ourselves and our suppliers.
Many people don't realise that they can hire Kensington Palace for events so it is a bit of a surprise for clients and guests. It is incredibly exclusive so guests won't have been to the venue before, the experience is a once in a lifetime. Although the palace is incredibly grand and beautiful it is also very intimate which really makes it feel special for you and your guests.
