The Old Marylebone Town Hall

Let’s start with a classic: Marylebone Town Hall. This venue is an absolute icon, and it’s easy to see why. The grand entrance steps make for some seriously romantic photos, and the building’s timeless architecture is the epitome of sophistication. Inside, there’s a choice of seven ceremony rooms, each beautifully styled to suit different sized weddings.

I’ve photographed many weddings here and it never fails to impress. It’s perfect for couples looking for a chic city wedding, and its central location makes it easy to head off to a nearby reception spot afterwards!

Islington Town Hall

If you’re looking for a venue with a touch of old-world charm, Islington Town Hall might just be the one for you. This grade II listed building boasts a stunning art deco interior, complete with elegant staircases and high ceilings. The Council Chamber is a particular favourite for its circular seating and gorgeous skylight, it’s like something right out of a period drama!

Islington is also brimming with cool reception venues, from trendy pubs to modern restaurants. Plus, the surrounding streets offer plenty of opportunities for relaxed, urban-style wedding photos.

Chelsea Old Town Hall

Next up is Chelsea Old Town Hall. This place is absolutely gorgeous! The stunning details, wood panelling, and beautiful chandeliers give it a classic yet luxurious vibe. The Main Hall is perfect for larger weddings, while the smaller rooms are ideal for intimate ceremonies.

And let’s not forget the iconic King’s Road right outside. It’s an amazing spot for capturing post-ceremony celebrations, with stylish shops and vibrant street life as your backdrop.

Kew Gardens

If you’re dreaming of a wedding surrounded by nature (without leaving the city), Kew Gardens is your answer. This venue is breathtakingly beautiful, offering everything from the historic Nash Conservatory to the jaw-dropping Temperate House for your ceremony and reception.

As a photographer, a Kew Gardens wedding is a dream! The glasshouses are stunning, the gardens are picture-perfect, and the golden hour light here is absolutely incredible.

Fitzrovia Chapel

If you’re after a venue that’s intimate, unique, and downright stunning, the Fitzrovia Chapel is a must-see. Tucked away in the heart of London, the Chapel is perfect for small wedding ceremonies. The intricate mosaics, gold detailing, and breathtaking stained-glass windows create an atmosphere that’s nothing short of magical.

After your ceremony, you’re just steps away from some of London’s trendiest reception spots and plenty of picturesque streets for those romantic post-ceremony photos.

The Ned

If luxury is your vibe, look no further than The Ned. This five star hotel is right in the heart of the City of London. There are several spaces you can use, including the gorgeous terrace with views of St Paul’s Cathedral. Your guests will be wowed from start to finish with The Ned’s stunning interiors and impeccable service. 

Overall, this incredible venue will give you the perfect blend of timeless elegance and modern sophistication.

The Asylum Chapel

For something a little more unconventional, let me introduce you to the Asylum Chapel in Peckham. Don’t let the name throw you off, because this grade II listed building is one of London’s most atmospheric venues. Its textured walls and stained glass windows creates an ethereal, almost otherworldly vibe.

It’s perfect for couples who want something a bit edgy, a bit artsy, and totally unforgettable. Pair it with a modern reception venue nearby for a wedding that’s equally alternative and glamorous.
