Lucy and Ant's Wedding at The Historic Church of St.Mary's, Stoke newington, North London

Lucy and Ant are both school teachers and planned their wedding for the beginning of the Christmas holiday, partly expecting frost and maybe even snow. But on the day the weather was glorious with balmy temperatures of 15 degrees, so no need for those fur coats!! Both the bride and groom prepared at The Rose and Crown Pub on Stoke Newington High Street. They made their way across the road to Stoke Newington Town Hall and the wedding began.

Throwing of Confetti on the town hall steps followed the ceremony as guests returned for a celebratory glass of fizz back at the Rose and Crown. Stoke Newington has a real village atmosphere and has some great backdrops for photos of the wedding party. As the sun set the wedding switched to London's only surviving Elizabethan church of St.Marys next to Clissold Park. A perfect cosy venue full of character and renaissance charm to host a candle lit winter wedding.
