The Usher Gallery is a unique wedding landmark venue in Lincoln in the Lincolnshire region of England. This stately building provides the perfect backdrop for your fairytale wedding. Home to an outstanding collection of artworks, sculptures, and decorative arts, this timeless location is bursting with culture and creativity and is a dreamlike venue to mark the start of the rest of your life.

Facilities and Capacity

The Usher Gallery acts as a premium register office, meaning you and your partner can tie the knot here as well as benefit from the beautiful surroundings for your pictures. Welcome up to 80 of your nearest and dearest in Gallery One for a wedding ceremony like no other. This stunning space located on the ground floor will be transformed into a home for you and your loved ones to unite in honour of this milestone event. Viewings are available Thursdays through to Monday from 10 am to 4 pm, where couples are encouraged to come and view the room and imagine it as they would like it to be on their big day. Usher Gallery bookings include the hiring of the room and the registrars to carry out the ceremony.

You are allocated a two hour slot as part of your booking, which includes thirty minutes before the start to allow your guests to arrive, take their seats and enjoy the surroundings. Your ceremony will typically last 30 minutes and is accompanied by music and readings of your choice. Following the main event, you will be entitled to an hour of photo time in the picturesque Temple Gardens.

Services Offered

The Usher Gallery is a working art gallery and, therefore, cannot be tailored to you. However, once you set eyes on these exquisite pieces of work, you will not want it any other way. Please also be aware that only artificial silk flowers may be used in the venue due to the very precious art works on display.

We understand the importance of personalising your occasion and offer plenty of ways you can customise your ceremony with us. We also give you full access to the sound system in order to create an ambience that is true to you. The ceremony room will be closed to the public throughout the duration of your service.

The most perfect day!

Me and my new Husband are over the moon with how the ceremony went! Couldn’t have asked for anything better. We were able to personalise our vows and also read our own words. The venue is beautiful and we were able to add our own easel and bring confetti for guests. All the guests mentioned how lovely the venue is and how it’s the most unique place they have witnessed anyone get married.

Thank you so much for the most perfect day x

Wedding 14/09/24

A beautiful place to have a wedding, registrars are lovely and nothing too much trouble, had a brilliant sense of humour with all our guests and gave us the ceremony we wanted.
Parking at the usher for the bridal party and ample parking close by for guests.
Lovely little coffee shop at the collection next door for early arrivals.
No fresh flowers in the usher as can damage the artifacts in the ceremony room.
Pretty but simply decorated with stunning photo opertunities with views of the cathedral.
Would highly recommend if you want something a little more special than a registry office.

Beautiful venue, professionally run, and a great atmosphere.

It is a lovely venue and really special to me as a frequent visitor to the gallery when I was a teenager. Layout is good, and the recent decoration made it a lovely place with a great atmosphere and a sense of history with the beautiful paintings. The drive up to the steps made a great entry and ease of parking, and the grounds are lovely for the photography and being allowed inside around the gallery made it really special. We had a great day, as did all our guests.

A great venue

The team at the Usher Gallery couldn’t have been more helpful with us when we were organising our wedding. They were quick to answer questions and on hand during the day to ensure our ceremony ran well for us. We couldn’t have asked for more.

Just be prepared to not have fresh flowers in the gallery due to the artwork etc but you can have some to hand for when you are outside for photos.

Brilliant photo opportunities - both inside or outside; particularly behind the gallery.

Our Wedding at the Usher.

Usher is a fantastic and scenic venue right in the middle of Lincoln with plenty of parking for guests.
The team at the gallery were extremely friendly and supportive on our day and the venue was clean and looked stunning. The ground are fantastic for waiting guests to enjoy and for photographs after.
Overall a fantastic venue steeped in history and looks the part.
