Couples can now walk down the aisle at The Tank Museum, one of Dorset's newest and most unusual wedding venues. Events manager Rosanna Dean says, "It might seem like a quirky place to get married, but we know there are lots of people looking for something a little different on their wedding day.
"Our unique surroundings have already attracted couples with a special connection to The Tank Museum, who want to celebrate their marriage with us. Some have links to the military, a keen interest in the subject or ties to the local area. The variety of settings and the expertise we have at the museum means we can offer a completely tailored experience."

Whether you want an intimate 1940s-style affair or a classic contemporary white wedding with up to 1,000 guests, the venue's experienced events team can help you create your day your way. You can even tie the knot in front of your favourite tank! Guests can explore the museum and, enjoy a sumptuous wedding breakfast courtesy of the in-house catering team and pose among the tanks for standout photos to treasure forever. What's more, all profits from weddings go to support The Tank Museum charity, so your big day will be helping to preserve history for generations to come.
