Personalise your wedding in our versatile space

If you are brimming with décor ideas and need a complete blank canvas to build your dream wedding from the ground up, then The Old Library is the perfect choice for you. Our all-white walls mean that whatever your colour scheme, our venue will suit your style. Let your imagination run wild and decorate however you want – all we ask is that lit flames are enclosed in a candle holder and you don’t use blue tac on our painted walls!
The history and character of The Old Library will be sure to immediately impress your guests. Originally built in 1866, the building opened as one of Birmingham’s 5 free libraries and is now the only one still standing. Our iconic Victorian windows and grand arch ways speak for themselves, making the setting romantic and creating a church-like atmosphere.
When you hire The Old Library for your wedding, it is a completely exclusive hire (including the bar!). Our friendly events team will be completely focused on you and making sure your day runs as smoothly as possible. We are also fully accessible and 100% pet friendly – we love it when your furry friends are a part of your special day!
