ABNEY PARK CHAPEL WEDDING // ANN-MARIE + PAUL

We all know I love a Hackney wedding, and have a very sentimental attachment to Stoke Newington. I shot plenty of weddings at the Stoke Newington Town Hall but this time I had the pleasure of witnessing Ann-Marie' and Paul’s wedding ceremony at the newest Hackney wedding venue, the Abney Park Chapel. Abney Park is one of the 'Magnificent Seven' garden cemeteries of London, a woodland memorial park and Local Nature Reserve. Nestled in the middle of the park is Abney Park Chapel, a newly restored Grade II listed building dating back to 1842. New life has been breathed into this historic structure with modern details, new stained glass and beautiful lighting.

After the lovely ceremony and family pictures outside of the chapel, we walked through the park and streets of Stoke Newington taking pictures of the couple. It’s an area full of character and interesting backdrops.

We made our way to the wonderful Londesborough Pub, famous for their delicious food and a great wedding party, where Ann-Marie and Paul had their reception.
