Cozy, unique and tranquil venue with friendly support

The chapel in Abney Park is so unique and tranquil! Refurbished in a really nice way that means it doesn't need much decoration (if at all). It has lovely stained glass windows and a quirky mezaninne for guests to have a different view. Super nice to have a short walk through the park for the big arrival too. The team looking after the venue are incredibly friendly and responsive. Better still, hiring this venue contributes towards council services, ongoing restoration and the surrounding park.

Wonderful experience

We chose to have our wedding at Abney Park Chapel. From the time of enquiry all the way through to the big day, it was such a pleasure to have our wedding at this venue. Not only was it an absolutely perfect setting for a city wedding in the middle of a beautiful park in the fantastically restored chapel, but the team were always around to help and communicated so well throughout.
Thank you for making our day so special.

Truely special venue - nowhere like it in London.

We got married in the Chapel in March and it was utterly amazing. The Chapel itself has been renovated beautifully and can accommodate different events and sizes (I believe up to 50 on the ground floor and 20 in the Mezzanine).

The Hackney Venues team (who manage the Chapel as a venue) were really great and helpful. Jess was our point of contact and is really sweet and helpful, as was the rest of the team. They were there on the day to help guide guests and suppliers.

One downside was that no vehicles are allowed within the cemetery so suppliers, guests and brides all have to walk along the path to the Chapel. This does, however, allow guests to properly appreciate the Chapel and how special it feels.

I believe we were the 3rd wedding in the Chapel and I’m sure there will be many many more.
