Ricky & Malika’s Stylish London Wedding – Islington Town Hall to The Hoxton, Holborn

This was a small but incredibly stylish London wedding, captured in our signature discreet style with just one camera. Ricky and Malika tied the knot in an intimate wedding ceremony at Islington Town Hall, followed by a relaxed yet stylish celebration at The Hoxton in Holborn. The day blended London chic with a touch of Russian tradition – complete with rings worn on the right hand, of course.

The wedding video came about as a last-minute decision, after Andrea Whelan Photography recommended us to the couple. Andrea wasn’t available to shoot the wedding itself, but she had previously done a couples shoot with them, forming a great connection and recognising the couple were a natural fit for our style at Confetti & Silk.

Stylish and effortlessly modern, Ricky and Malika didn’t disappoint with their approach to the day.

They chose to get ready together at their flat in Greenwich, although Ricky did leave before Malika stepped into her dress, preserving a little mystery.

The ceremony took place in the Council Chamber at Islington Town Hall, the grandest room in the building. A simple, heartfelt exchange of vows gave way to photo and video sessions in the venue’s iconic marble hallways.

Guests then made their way across London to The Hoxton, Holborn, where the celebration continued.

The couple had curated a selection of signature cocktails that reflected their personalities. For dinner, they served a buffet of British gastropub favourites mixed with a few Russian-inspired bites. The dance floor filled up quickly afterwards. With a first round of dancing complete, Ricky and both fathers gave short but emotional speeches. Malika’s dad delivered his in broken but heartfelt English, with a translator on hand for full effect. As the party continued and the dance floor continued to heave, our filming for the day ended.
