CAMDEN & ISLINGTON 23 LSO ST LUKE’S As an established classical and contemporary concert venue on Old Street, Grade I listed LSO St Luke’s is at once an intimate and inspiring space, with its Hawksmoor spire and tall feature windows lending this reception-only venue grandeur and gravitas, while the innovative interior design and the fact it has hosted Sting, Elton John, Annie Lennox, Bruce Springsteen and James Brown in its time provides serious street cred.

Alternatively, if you’re looking for an outdoor reception with a stunning 18 th -century backdrop, LSO St Luke’s beautiful garden is the setting for you.  Ceremony licence?
