r.s.hispaniola - a unique wedding venue

Wedding venues in London don't come any better than the R. S. Hispaniola, a tastefully furnished, fully air-conditioned, permanently-moored ship offering high-quality private event facilities close to the West End.  The Hispaniola's beautiful and elegant interior is equalled only by her spectacular location on London's riverside under the gaze of the London Eye with far-reaching views from St. Paul's round to Big Ben.

Always ideal for parties and receptions, since 2006 R.S.Hispaniola has also been licensed to host wedding ceremonies themselves, both religious and civil.

With years of experience hosting parties (hen and stag!), dances, corporate entertainment and hospitality events, the R.S.Hispaniola's friendly staff are pleased to put their expertise at your disposal.
