I would 100% recommend Weston park museum

The Sheffield gallery was the perfect venue for our ceremony. Interesting, bright and clean. All our guests commented on the ambience of the room. The fact that we had a family member to play the violin while we signed the registrar was the icing on the cake. We had a drinks reception after the ceremony and then used the beautiful grounds for our photos. All the staff we encountered were friendly and welcoming. I would 100% recommend Weston park museum for a wedding venue.
