WE ALL KNOW that the profession likes to think it can turn its hand to anything (when not conflicted out of course), but the ICAEW is taking the biscuit. With TS contemplating the Royal Wedding, and the extra day off we all get, an advert in the Metro piqued our interest.
Weddings at “…a beautiful and historic setting in the heart of London”. Westminster Abbey, surely? thought TS.
Nope. It was an ad for hiring out the institute’s One Moorgate Place restaurant and now, apparently, reception area.
The institute also wanted TS to point out that members can get a whopping 10% discount on the room hire element of each wedding package. Will TS see a penny of commission? Not a chance.

OMP Amazing
Ok yes, it is not Westminster Abbey, that's for royality only, but One Moorgate Place at the ICAEW is commerically one on the best ideas I have seen in some time. Having visited this amazing space, why hide the stunning rooms for members when the public can equally enjoy the space. I say - good on OMP for thinking outside the box, I mean it's not like accountants need the venue on a weekend anyway!!
