The Usher Gallery

The Usher Gallery acts as a premium register office with up to 80 of your nearest and dearest guests for a wedding ceremony like no other.

Ceremonies take place in Gallery One, 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.

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 thirty 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.

The Usher Gallery is a unique wedding landmark venue in Lincoln. 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.

Your ceremony at the Usher Gallery

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.

Viewings are available Thursdays through to Monday from 10am to 4pm, where couples are encouraged to come and view the room and imagine it as they would like it to be on their big day.
