FOR LOVERS OF SOMETHING DIFFERENT

If you want your big day to be completely out of the ordinary, choose an iconic location at National Museums NI and make your wedding memorable.

The Ulster Museum is the epitome of city centre cool – it’s teeming with dramatic spaces and exquisite collections of art and history, for the chicest of wedding celebrations. Say ‘I do’ in the beautiful Belfast Room, explore Botanic Gardens for unforgettable photographs and host your sublime reception in the architecturally awesome Atrium.

At the Ulster Folk Museum at Cultra, you can let your imagination run free as to how you use the exhibits for your special day. Say ‘I Do’ in an 18th Century church or be the leading characters in the original Picture House Cinema. Turf fires, thatched roofs, stone walls, cobbled streets, a lovely old pub, sweetie shop, the list goes on. Traditional character at its best.

Cultra Manor is nestled exquisitely in the glorious grounds of the Folk Museum. Its graceful Edwardian charm puts guests at their ease immediately as they relax in its collection of high ceilinged, beautifully lit and stylishly ornate rooms. Secluded grandeur at its most elegant.

The Ulster American Folk Park in Omagh is a venue with countless unique features blending homely rural Ulster with the buzz of 19th century America. Big wooden barns, cute woodland cottages, the bar, the print shop, the icehouse - mix and match spaces to get exactly the atmosphere you want for your wedding and your photos. Rustic charm at its most authentic.

We love hosting weddings and we understand that there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach. We will work with you as a couple to understand exactly how you imagine your special day and match you with a venue and wedding type that reflects your personal style.

We cater for ceremonies, receptions, blessings or anniversaries. There are spaces of all shapes and sizes across each of our museums, each with distinct appeal. All our museums are licenced for Civil and Humanist Ceremonies.
