In our latest blog, we explore why classic hospitality never goes out of fashion, looking at the enduring appeal of institutions such as Wiltons The Goring and CLARIDGE’S.

While each has its own character, they share the same commitment to thoughtful service, attention to detail and making guests feel genuinely cared for. These are the principles that have stood the test of time and remain at the heart of everything we do at By Word of Mouth.

By Word of Mouth at V&A South Kensington:

V&A South Kensington is a venue By Word of Mouth knows well, having catered everything from summer events in the John Madejski Garden to festive celebrations in the Raphael Court.

As the world’s leading museum of art and design, the V&A offers a remarkable setting in the heart of South Kensington. From its galleries and exhibition spaces to the gardens and the Dome, home to Dale Chihuly’s striking glass sculpture, it is a venue with history, scale and atmosphere.

The versatility of the V&A is matched by the beauty of its interiors. It is a venue that provides an unforgettable backdrop for events of every scale, and one we have had the pleasure of working in for many years.

A Riviera inspired party in the square:

Our in-house creative, Beth, designed the beautiful Mediterranean bar, with Velvet Living helping bring the concept to life. Guests enjoyed a generous selection of herb-marinated meats, falafel and fresh salads, served with mint and coriander yoghurt, crumbled feta and lemon aioli, alongside a pizza bar offering a fresh take on the classics.

The drinks complemented the food perfectly, with cocktails, mocktails, English sparkling wine, crisp whites and rose poured throughout the evening.

A Tudor-inspired evening at Hampton Court Palace.

From the red-carpet arrival to a candlelit dinner in the Great Hall, with long tables layered in fruit, gold details and opulent flowers, the theme felt perfectly suited to a palace so deeply steeped in English history and heritage.

By Word of Mouth at Westminster Abbey:

Few venues carry a sense of history quite like Westminster Abbey. For over 1,000 years, it has been the setting for coronations, royal weddings and national moments, making it one of London’s most extraordinary places to host an event.

From the atmospheric Vaulted Cloisters and the 13th-century Chapter House to the Cellarium, once used by the monks to store food and drink, each space offers a remarkable backdrop for receptions, dinners and private celebrations.

For something truly memorable, the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Galleries sit 52 feet above the Abbey floor within the medieval triforium, creating a breathtaking setting for a drinks reception or a beautiful addition to a larger dinner in the Cellarium.
