Celeb Wedding Venue To Make Business School Transformation

A venue popular for celebrity weddings has been leased to a business school.

The London Business School will spend about £60m restoring and transforming the Grade II-listed old Marylebone Town Hall hall, in central London, into a modern learning environment.

Its famous steps have twice hosted the nuptials of Sir Paul McCartney, with his late wife Linda and more recently with Nancy Shevell, Ringo Starr and Barbara Bach, Liam Gallagher and Patsy Kensit, and Hollywood stars Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith.

Couples will be able to book their ceremonies at the restored venue after the programme of works is completed. In the interim, Westminster will be offering couples use of the 18th floor of City Hall for wedding ceremonies, a unique location with panoramic views over the capital, including Buckingham Palace and the London Eye.

Jonathan Glanz, the councillor responsible for housing and property, said: "This agreement will not only generate an income for the council, but it will also see the multi-million pound restoration of the famous building.

"I am delighted that we have partnered the London Business School and to see the historic building enter a new chapter as a modern educational facility."

A planning application is expected to be submitted before the end of the year.
