Foundling Museum

An elegant Bloomsbury museum for weddings surrounded by art, history and character.

The Foundling Museum offers a wedding setting unlike most in central London. Set on Brunswick Square in Bloomsbury, it brings together Georgian interiors, historic paintings and rooms that feel special without ever feeling stiff.

Couples can hold their ceremony in the Picture Gallery or the Court Room, then continue the celebration with dinner and dancing in the Study Studio. The spaces work beautifully for both intimate gatherings and larger celebrations, depending on the rooms you choose.

Exclusive hire also gives your guests the chance to explore the Museum’s collection during the day. As a registered charity, income from venue hire helps support its work with children and young people.

Guest Capacity

Court Room: up to 50 for ceremonies, 40 for a wedding breakfast
Picture Gallery: up to 100 for ceremonies, 100 for a wedding breakfast
Whole Museum: up to 250 guests

Why couples choose this Venue?

There is real substance to the Foundling Museum. The Court Room’s Rococo details create an intimate setting for a ceremony, while the Picture Gallery gives a larger reception a beautiful backdrop of eighteenth-century art.

It feels central yet tucked away, and the combination of historic rooms, art and a dedicated events team makes it ideal for couples who want a London wedding with genuine personality.
