Charlotte & Barney Say...
It all started on the summer solstice 2025... We'd been desperate to visit The Victoria after seeing pictures and hearing how good the food was. We went to a supper club, realised that the food was indeed, outrageously good, and immediately asked if they did weddings.
We weren't even engaged.
The Victoria was everything we could have wished for and more. Upstairs, the chapel is airy and romantic, decorated with a sea of single stem flowers and elegant candles - it captures the light in such a magical way, giving it all an almost otherworldly beauty.
Downstairs the bar is modern and slick, harnessing that 'industry meets nature' feel that we love about Sheffield. It also makes an incredible dancefloor - enough space to party, while never needing to leave the fun to stay hydrated. The addition of the vintage photobooth is also perfect; there's something delightfully comical about trying to fit a full wedding dress in there alongside anyone else.
Everyone we spoke to about The Victoria gave us glowing reviews, from friends to our wedding vendors. They were absolutely right - the whole experience, from planning to the big day, was incredible. The staff are so friendly while being absolute pros at what they do. The day felt flawless and effortless, despite knowing how much hard work was going on to make it so.
So many people told us it was the best food they'd ever had at a wedding, and even the best wedding they'd been to. We genuinely had the best day of our lives, and are so indescribably grateful to all of the team. And now, as part of The Victoria's wedding club, we get to enjoy those feelings whenever we go back to visit (we're already booked in for another supper club!!)
