Wedding Photography at The Bedford Pub | Balham

As a local wedding photographer it was an absolute joy to shoot my first wedding party in The Bedford Pub! A local institution and a fab backdrop for any wedding photography or party. Caroline and Goncalo have roots in Scotland and Portugal respectively, so you can imagine we were all in for an absolute treat at this one, with the most fun-loving guests, a ceilidh band and a DJ to see everyone through dancing til 1am. Champagne, the tastiest Portugese red wine (if ONLY I could remember the name!!) and birthday cake ON top of an incredible three-course meal (hats off to the chefs at The Bedford) were also several of the many highlights of the day.

Picture-Perfect: Best London Pubs for Wedding Photography

Pubs typically offer a more intimate setting than a traditional wedding venue. They are more laid-back and can make the day feel more personal and less formal. I’ve photographed couples at pubs where they had their first date. Making their wedding photography even more extra-special. Anyhow here’s a guide to some of the best London pubs for your wedding photography. In no particular order..

The Prince Albert, Camden

One of my favourite wedding pubs is the Victorian and award-winning Prince Albert in Camden. If you’re looking for a quintessential rustic pub wedding in London this could well be perfect for you. Two floors, two bars, and a beer garden provide plenty of room to host a fabulous wedding ceremony and or reception.

Dark wooden floors, large sash windows and emerald green tiles, this gorgeous space has lots of natural light and makes a PERFECT backdrop for your wedding photography. As a wedding photographer I’M TOTALLY IN LOVE WITH THIS SPACE.

The Prince Albert is available for full-venue private hire, or you can hire the first-floor function room on its own. Perfect for your wedding breakfast. Capacity is 50 standing or 105 seated.

The ground floor of the Prince Albert has room for a live band and DJ – and of course the dancefloor!  


The Roebuck, Borough

The Roebuck could well be one of Borough’s best kept secrets. Independently owned and loved by the locals, The Roebuck offers a broad selection of beers and ales from around the world, a freshly prepared menu full of locally sourced produce, and an easy going friendly vibe.

Tucked away at the leafier end of Great Dover Street, The Roebuck balances being a little bit off the beaten track with being incredibly easy to get to: Borough tube is less than a five minutes stroll away, whilst a ten minute fast walk connects you to both Elephant & Castle and London Bridge.

Built to imposing Victorian proportions, the large, airy pub boasts traditional charm. The incredible upstairs function room is perfect for your wedding breakfast.

With original wood flooring, an open fire and its own bar, this space exudes an atmosphere of comfort and character.

The Surprise Pub, Chelsea

The Surprise pub in Chelsea has been a local landmark since 1853, and gives off a warm, neighbourly vibe making it feel like home.

The building is steeped in naval history, taking its name from HMS Surprise, the captured French corvette used by the British Navy to sneak up on enemy vessels in the days of Admiral Nelson.

Just moments from Chelsea’s King’s Road, this beautifully refurbished freehouse serves good quality, well-priced, British-inspired cooking. Couples with an extensive champagne and wine list it is a perfect place for your laid-back wedding party.

The Orange, Belgravia

Built in the 1800s as a brewery, on the site of a former coffee house, The Orange is said to be named after William of Orange. These days, the grand pub sits over 4 floors, positioned in the famed craft district of the Pimlico Road providing a stylish hub to eat, drink and celebrate your wedding.
