When looking for the ideal simchah venue, it
should not only look stunning, but it should belong
exclusively to you for the whole day. Exclusive
venue hire provides you with the flexibility to
design a sensational celebration that is personal to
you and your family, creating memories that will
last a lifetime.
Kent House Knightsbridge is a versatile
Victorian townhouse that stylishly
combines a grand royal history
yet has the intimacy of a private
house. It boasts many beautiful
period features including ornate
cornicing, marble floors, a sweeping
staircase and skylight, and large floor
to ceiling windows. The elegance
of the house provides the perfect
backdrop to any major celebration
including anniversaries, barmitzvah’s,
engagements and weddings.

KENT HOUSE KNIGHTSBRIDGE offers you
a truly unique and exclusive environment,
spacious yet intimate, for both religious
ceremonies and celebrations.
Whether you are planning a chuppah or civil
ceremony at Kent House Knightsbridge, or to
celebrate Havdallah before commencing your
simchah after shabbat goes out, you can relax
knowing that the ceremony, the wedding breakfast
and the dancing will all be skillfully put together
by our dedicated events team who will guide you
as the day unfolds.
Our two downstairs rooms, The Rutland Room and
The Library, provide the perfect intimate backdrop
for your special occasion. Guests will enjoy a drinks
reception in the elegant Marble Hall before they
sweep up the Grand Staircase into the Sanctuary
which will be dressed for a party reflecting your
chosen style.
‘Mazal tov and siman tov’
When it comes to planning a party, organisation
is everything. Our events team have many years’
experience in organising Jewish celebrations. The
team is headed up by Gary Peters who is a member
of our synagogue and has been voted as one of the
most influential people in the events industry by
joining the Events Magazine Top 100 Club.
You will have a dedicated events manager who
will work with you to help you plan your event,
taking the stress away and enabling you to
enjoy the occasion. We will make sure you have
everything in place at the venue as well as being
there on the big day itself, making sure that
everything runs seamlessly.

Renewing your Vows
Celebrating 25, 50, 60 or more
years of a wonderful marriage?
Bring all your friends and
family together to renew and
celebrate your vows under our
beautiful Chuppah here at
Kent House Knightsbridge.
Civil Ceremony
If you are planning a civil
wedding, the ground floor of Kent
House Knightsbridge is licensed
by Westminster City Council as
a wedding venue. Once you’ve
chosen a date for your wedding
at Kent House Knightsbridge,
you simply need to call the
Westminster Register Office
for advice and book the date
with them.
Bar/Bat Mitzvah Celebrations
The transition from childhood to
adulthood is the most important
ceremony of a Jewish girl or boy’s
life. Kent House Knightsbridge
is the perfect venue for bar/bat
mitzvah celebrations, enabling
you to tailor the space to celebrate
it in a way that reflects your
family. Celebrate Havdallah to
kick off your event as Shabbat
goes out, or enjoy an early
evening Sunday night party.
Kent House Knightsbridge offers
you a special Jewish environment
for your simchah.
Chuppah
Westminster Synagogue,
an independent progressive
Synagogue, is situated on the first
floor of Kent House Knightsbridge.
If you are planning a chuppah, and
you do not belong to a Synagogue,
you can be married under the
auspices of the Synagogue.
Rabbi Thomas Salamon would
be delighted to meet with you
to provide you with all the
information you need to make a
decision. Alternatively you may
prefer to have your own Rabbi to
officiate at the Chuppah.
Marriage Blessings
If one of the partners is not Jewish,
a marriage blessing ceremony is a
wonderful opportunity for families
to have their wedding solemnized,
after a civil ceremony has taken
place. Once again, this can be done
under the auspices of Westminster
Synagogue or a progressive Rabbi
of your choice may officiate.

Kent House Knightsbridge works with

you’d like to create.

Testimonials
From the fantastic organisation and professionalism of the service and staff to the
delicious food, you exceeded all our expectations. We were very impressed with the
venue and you made it even more special as nothing was too much to ask for and
your attention to detail ensured everything ran smoothly. We have received so many
compliments on the venue, the food, the helpful staff and the decoration. Thank you
for making our wedding day an occasion to remember. The only problem now is that
we both want to do it all over again – we’re looking forward to the next big occasion
that will give us a suitable excuse to use Kent House Knightsbridge again!
