Greta and David’s wedding at The Asylum Chapel in Peckham, London, was nothing short of breathtaking, followed by a lively reception at The East Dulwich Tavern. As someone who used to call Peckham home, it was a delight to return and photograph their special day in such a meaningful place.
David arrived early at The Asylum Chapel, setting a warm, welcoming tone by offering guests scones and tea—a thoughtful touch that made everyone feel right at home.
The Chapel is Simply Magical
I absolutely love photographing weddings at The Asylum Chapel, nestled in Caroline Gardens. The light in the chapel is simply magical, enhancing the beautiful textures of the weathered walls. Every corner of the space feels like a work of art, adding a timeless, fine art quality to every shot.
When the guests had settled in, Greta made her entrance, looking absolutely stunning in a vintage lace gown paired with striking red velvet shoes. Their love for Peaky Blinders was evident in their wedding theme, bringing a dash of 1920s style without the drama of the show!
After the ceremony, guests were treated to tea or prosecco before hopping on a short bus ride to the reception at The East Dulwich Tavern. The upstairs event space there is perfect for weddings, with its large windows flooding the room with natural light—a photographer’s dream.

And though Greta and David may come across as soft-spoken, they sure know how to let loose on the dance floor! (A little tequila probably helped, too!)
