The Foundling Museum: A Wedding Venue with Heart in Central London
Begin your life together in a venue where history, art, and philanthropy unite. The Foundling Museum, located in the heart of Bloomsbury, offers a wedding setting of unparalleled elegance and profound significance. As the UK’s first children’s charity and first public art gallery, the Museum provides a truly unique and meaningful backdrop for your special day.
Exchange your vows amidst the eighteenth-century splendour of our magnificent Court Room, considered one of London’s most beautiful Georgian interiors. Its ornate Rococo ceiling and historic paintings by artists such as William Hogarth create an atmosphere of timeless romance, perfect for an unforgettable ceremony.
Following your service, welcome guests for a celebratory reception in the stately Picture Gallery, surrounded by portraits of the Museum’s earliest patrons. The grand, sweeping staircase offers a dramatic and picturesque setting for photographs, while the collection of beautifully preserved interiors provides a sophisticated and inspiring atmosphere for every moment of your celebration.
Choosing the Foundling Museum means your wedding becomes part of a continuing story of compassion. The revenue generated from your hire directly supports the Museum’s vital work with vulnerable children and young people today, ensuring your celebration leaves a positive and lasting legacy.
