ASYLUM CHAPEL WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY
Jane and Thomas were married on Mayday at the gorgeous Asylum Chapel by Maverick Events and what a fine day it was too.
ASYLUM CHAPEL
The Asylum Chapel was built by the Licensed Victualers Benevolent Institution for the residents of Caroline Gardens (of which the chapel is part) who were retired workers in the local alcohol trade. Built in 1826 it has a Grade II listing. Bombed by the Luftwaffe in World War II the chapel lost its roof and was left to decay before being partially restored. This explains the beautiful patina of decay inside as the many layers of paint peeled. It’s suitable for up to 120 guests and one thing is for certain, they’ll be talking about your ceremony for years to come!
Enjoy the photos; we start with Jane writing thank-you cards and Thomas then delivering them by hand all around Peckham, followed by a pre-ceremony pint at the pub. After the ceremony at the Asylum, we went for a magical mystery tour on a London Routemaster bus to the reception at Hackney City Farm.
