About Bodleian Library Weddings
The Bodleian Library invites you to toast your once-in-a-lifetime celebrations with us. The Old Bodleian boasts intricate details in the stone walls of the Old Schools Quadrangle, masterful late gothic architecture of the Divinity School and the distinguished ceremonial space of the Convocation House. This is a space like no other, and we would delighted to host your wedding day in our venue.
Upon walking into the Old Schools Quadrangle, you are greeted by glittering stone walls, glorious sunlight and magnificent proportions. From the breath-taking elegance, stone-carved ceiling and dual-aspect windows of The Divinity School – to the charming carved-woodwork and fan-vaulted ceiling of Convocation House – every corner is adorned with dappled light and dazzling architecture, all located in the historic beating heart of Oxford.
