Couples book a companion for more reasons than people tend to assume. Some want a lively third voice at an anniversary dinner. Some are visiting London and would like someone who knows the district to share an evening out. Some simply enjoy good company and new conversation. Whatever the reason, the booking works best when both partners want it equally, and the desk asks about that gently before anything is confirmed.
An evening for couples follows the familiar ladder: £500 for two hours, £700 for three, or £900 for a four hour evening with dinner. Couples pay the ordinary deposit, 25 percent transferred ahead, once the plan is settled, and her fee covers time and companionship only, for a couple exactly as for one guest. The rates page lists each length with its fee.

Either partner may write, and the desk simply needs to hear that the other has agreed to the idea; a line saying you are booking together is enough. Tell the desk what the two of you enjoy, the pace you like and any subject or setting best left out. Verification uses the name on the hotel reservation, or the building and flat for a home, in the same way as any other booking.
The best plans give everyone something to talk about. Stalls seats at the Royal Court, facing Sloane Square, then a late supper beneath the plane trees. A Science Museum Late, or a Friday Late at the V&A when one falls in your week, followed by a drink on Old Brompton Road. Dinner at a round table in Chelsea, where nobody is left at the end. Candlelit tables at the Troubadour in Earls Court, with live music downstairs to carry any pause.
A companion booked by a couple gives her attention to both of you in equal measure. She takes care never to leave one partner feeling like an onlooker, keeps the conversation travelling around the table rather than towards one person, and takes her cues from the two of you together. If either partner would like the evening to end sooner than booked, a word is enough, and she leaves graciously.
The easiest evenings are the ones where everyone knows the plan before it starts: where you are meeting, how long the booking lasts and what kind of evening it is. A companion booked by a couple joins you socially, for conversation, a meal, a performance or a walk. Fees are for time and companionship, and that holds for two guests exactly as it does for one. Saying so plainly at the outset spares any awkwardness later.
Browse the gallery side by side and send the desk a shortlist of names you both like, or tell the desk about the evening and ask for a suggestion. For couples, temperament usually matters more than appearance: a natural host, a genuine listener, someone at ease with a group she has only just met. If one of you is more hesitant than the other, say so. The desk would rather suggest a gentler plan, or none at all, than an evening only one of you is looking forward to.
Seats for three, at a restaurant or a theatre, should be booked under your own name, with the details passed to the desk. She can meet you at the venue or at your hotel beforehand, whichever feels easier for a first introduction. Drinks, tickets and dinner are shared costs of the evening, kept apart from her fee, and the balance is settled in banknotes on arrival or sent ahead by transfer.
Michelle is a born host who would sooner keep three people laughing than hold the floor herself. Nora makes a quiet bar feel a little festive and finds something worth a toast in most evenings. Lea likes to ask about the rooms you live in, a question couples usually enjoy answering together, and knows the Royal Court well. Roxi has a talent for drawing out everyone's best story within a few minutes. Michelle and Nora both belong to the late twenties room of the collection.
It is arranged for the two of you together, so both partners are expected for the evening. If one of you has to leave early, the booking simply ends at that point.
No. It is the same ladder as a booking for one guest, beginning at £500 for two hours.
Yes. Pass the venue and the booking name to the desk, and she will find you there.
The standard 25 percent by bank transfer. If the evening includes travel or an overnight, the 50 percent deposit applies instead.
Write once on WhatsApp or Telegram with the time and the address. A person on the desk answers within 10 to 15 minutes, day or night, and a verified companion is usually with you inside the hour.
