What people have to say

I really appreciate the job you did for us and will remember the occasion forever. Everything went perfectly. I was highly pleased, and it has had a lasting positive impact on my family and guests. Looking back at the other venues we viewed and the timescales involved, it feels like a privilege to have celebrated our marriage in your museum. I can only imagine you getting busier and busier as word (and photos) spread. Please thank all the team, those working on the evening and everyone else involved. Simply brilliant. 

Wedding

We absolutely loved having our wedding at Bristol Museum, it was perfect. Thank you for making all the planning as easy as possible, and so stress free for us. We were so impressed too by how the venue was set up on the day - there was such attention to detail and everything was as we wanted it. Any questions we had on the day were quickly and easily answered - it was always easy to find yourself or one of your staff members to ask. Everything went off without a hitch, and we felt very looked after! 

Wedding

As soon as we stepped into the museum, everything else just faded away. Everything looked so romantic, beautiful and overall just stunning. We could see that everyone was soaking up the atmosphere and taking in all the little museum’s details that we love. Because of this, I was immediately put at ease and all my nerves were settled immediately. Throughout the night, pretty much every guest told us what an incredibly beautiful venue it is and what a fun time they had - a few even said it was the best wedding they had ever been to . We also believe that this is the best wedding we have ever been to and the fact that it was ours was everything we ever dreamed. And despite life’s poor timing, we genuinely had the best night of our lives.
