Perfect Wedding Venue with Exceptional Service and Coordination

We had the perfect wedding day at Wagtail last month! From the initial planning stages to the final moments of our special day, the entire experience was incredible. The venue was organised, friendly, and accommodating throughout the planning process. Silvja, our wedding day coordinator, was an absolute superstar! She went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, allowing us to fully enjoy our evening reception with our guests. Her coordination with the suppliers, the guests and ourselves was impeccable, making sure everything was taken care of seamlessly in the background.

The entire Wagtail team provided exceptional service throughout the evening. The food and drinks were excellent and served with great attention to detail. We received amazing feedback from our guests about both the venue and the outstanding service during the reception. We highly recommend Wagtail to anyone looking for a perfect wedding experience!

Great service and stunning location!

We couldn't have asked for a better venue for our wedding reception. Wagtail rooftop is a beautiful location and our guests could see all of London's landmarks.
Rebecca, our wedding planner, was friendly, responsive and professional. She and her team were flexible with our requests; the food was AMAZING!; the service on the day was spot on! Although we only had canapes and no sit down meal, they offer the possibility of having large bites and late night pizzas, which was more than enough to keep our guests full.
The service leading up to the day - inclusing tasting and correspondence - was professional and fast, and they even helped us with finding a DJ. Needless to say, they went above and beyond. We were able to enjoy our night because we knew we were in good hands.
