A perfect venue
I cannot recommend the Art Gallery and the team there enough. The venue itself is absolutely stunning and the ability to use different galleries during the day is really wonderful. From the first contact, communication from Victoria was great and she helped us plan the event and made suggestions that we wouldn't have thought of. The day itself was just perfection. Victoria and the team ensured that the whole thing was seamless. The food and drink were exceptional and everybody commented on how wonderful the hospitality team were. The uniqueness of the venue and the stunning artworks gave guests the opportunity to look around during pre-dinner drinks. Using the atrium for the evening party meant that the dancing was non stop but the adjacent little break out areas meant guests looking for a quieter time had somewhere to put their feet up and enjoy more art. It really is the perfect venue.Manchester Art Gallery's reply:

Caitlin E. Sent on 14/11/2024The Perfect Wedding Venue
When we found out that we could get married in Manchester Art Gallery we knew that we didn’t need to look anywhere else. From the very first conversation with Victoria and the team we felt we were in such safe hands, and they worked so hard to make everything we wanted possible, and so we didn’t have to worry about a single thing. The food was some of the best I’ve ever eaten - my guests still rave about it now, months down the line! It’s an absolutely perfect venue, and I think represents incredible value for money, and if we could do our wedding day all over again we wouldn’t change a single thing!Manchester Art Gallery's reply:
Hi Caitlin
Wonderful to hear from you and thank you for such a fantastic review. I am always so delighted to receive such amazing feedback and to hear what a great time you have had on your wedding day does make me truly happy.
The team here are very proud to be involved in such a special occasion and to know that we have delivered is extremely rewarding.
Your photos are gorgeous and bring back treasured memories for you I am sure.
I hope you will keep visiting the gallery
Take care
Victoria and The Gallery Team -

Aiyisha W. Sent on 18/11/2023The most incredible day!
Not sure I can write just how perfect it was in 75 characters but everything from our first meeting to our last was made easy, cool and exciting by Victoria! We had our heart set on the gallery because it’s a sentimental and beautiful building to us with perfect memories! I couldn’t have imagined how perfect it would actually be on the day. The feedback from the guests just spoke of how beautiful everything was! And best we get to go back and wander the rooms whenever we like!! Thank you to everyone at the gallery and huge thanks to Victoria! XxManchester Art Gallery's reply:

Beautiful venue
Manchester Art Gallery might be the perfect wedding venue. The setting is unique - and you get to enjoy different stages of your wedding across multiple galleries and halls. The food and drink were excellent and Victoria was a brilliant wedding planner. Highly recommended. -

Absolutely stunning and truly unique venue
Manchester Art Gallery is a completely stunning and truly unique venue. We could not recommend Victoria and her wonderful team highly enough. The most notable thing was how responsive and flexible they are to all questions and requests. I don't think there was a single thing we asked which wasn't accommodated. The venue itself is just gorgeous and with all the stunning artwork, you don't need much decoration. All our guests commented on what a beautiful venue it is. While of course nothing wedding-related comes 'cheap', Manchester Art Gallery really does represent good value for money and they are completely flexible to adjust the catering budget and bar requests. We had a wonderful day and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it!!!Manchester Art Gallery's reply:
Hi Harriet & Stefanos

The perfect day!
Could not have asked for a better venue and coordinator for our wedding! Victoria was our coordinator and she was great to work with and very attentive during the entire planning process. Always available to answer our questions and have calls leading up to our wedding. The day of everything was perfectly organised and ran on time, we felt no stress. We did a food tasting several months before and were able to customise some of our menu with the chef. Guests were very pleased with the food, venue, atmosphere and some said it was the best wedding they've every attended. I would highly recommend to anyone considering The Art Gallery as a wedding venue, its unique, beautiful, and they can accommodate all requests and provide suggestions if needed.Manchester Art Gallery's reply:
Hi Kelly & Marius

You certainly brought an international crowd with you and to be given the accolade of 'best wedding they've ever attended' is fantastic. Thanks so much
You will always be welcome at the gallery and I do hope you will come and visit when you are next in Manchester
Wishing you both an amazing future together!

Marie Sent on 16/06/2023A very Elvis wedding
We had our ceremony and reception at Manchester Art Gallery on 10th June 2023
Debbie took care of everything, she sat with us and listened to what we had in mind, made helpful suggestions and put in place everything that needed doing which took pressure off us and we could just relax and enjoy. On the day itself Debbie was there when needed but also stayed I the background making sure everything went smoothly. The serving and bar staff were also helpful and friendly. The food was excellent and the day was perfect.
We kept things simple but I know that anything you wanted to have or happen Debbie would go above and beyond to make it happen. -

Perfect Venue
Couldn't recommend the venue or the team at Manchester Art Gallery highly enough. The experience of using different spaces for different parts of the day was so special and guests were blown away at just how much of the Gallery you can use. Victoria is the events planner of dreams - friendly, professional, quick to respond and so open to accomodating the special touches for your day. The food that we had was great and we were able to work with the team to build a menu with them that exceeded our expectations. Everything on the day ran really smoothly and there were no problems with external suppliers for sound, lighting etc getting access.
Overall we couldnt have been happier with the day and just wish we could do it all again!Manchester Art Gallery's reply:
Hi Kirsty and Jay
I hope life is treating you both well. Thanks so much for taking the time to give us such a rave (5 star!) review. I use your wedding pictures as an example of the event spaces all of the time, the galleries looked stunning and the Atrium amazing with all of the sparkly lights! You certainly had an eye for detail. Your suppliers were a dream to work with, especially Adam (photographer).
It has been a pleasure to help you with your plans along the way, from site visit, to tasting, to delivery on the day. Your kind words 'events planner of dreams' goes a long way! and I will be sharing your great review with the team.
As I say to all the couples, come and say hello whenever your are nearby, it would be great to see you both
Thanks again
