Your Wedding Is Part of Something Bigger
Faith In Strangers hosts an ongoing cultural programme — so there may be DJs or live events happening in the venue while your celebration is taking place. We've welcomed Horse Meat Disco, Luke Una, Mr Scruff, Joy Orbison, Coco Maria, Charlie Bones and more.
We Take Our Sound Seriously
Architecturally designed with acoustic panelling and angled walls, the space creates a sonically sound housing for our custom-built 'Poseidon Sound System' — a club-grade audio installation that makes every event feel electric.
