The Guild of Guardians was founded during 1978 by the late Mr. Alfred Telling CBE who, at the time, was heading an appeal to acquire the Bomford Collection of Ancient Glass for the City Museum and Art Gallery.
This led to an awareness of the poor state of the glassware, silverware and other features of the Mansion House, gifted to the Council in 1874 by its original builder and first occupant Alderman Thomas Proctor, to which many important visitors and dignitaries came when they visited Bristol.

In July 2019 we had the pleasure of holding our wedding weekend at The Mansion House. Simon, Abigail, Beth and the team were absolutely amazing, the entire weekend (Saturday wedding, Sunday BBQ) was faultless. The food was fantastic, the venue beautiful, and the general running of the weekend was just perfect. We have so much gratitude for giving us everything we wanted and more. Our guests could not have been more impressed. Highly recommended!

I have been photographing weddings at The Mansion House since 2010 and I can honestly say it's lovely choice for Clifton wedding. There is possibility to have an outdoor ceremony in the gazebo or inside the house which is beautifully decorated. Since Parsnip Mash took over the management of the events at Mansion House the venue and service improved immensely.

Beautiful venue with the unique status of being the official residence of the Lord Mayor of Bristol. The historical significance of this impressive building gives it a gravitas that makes any event something very special. It is big enough to have a wow factor but the layout of the rooms around the grand reception hall ensure that it also feels quite homely and guests can mingle and chat in a very friendly atmosphere.
