Renting rooms in the facility for a private function does not secure exclusive use of the facility; only the space rented. Activities shall not interfere with normal public operation of the museum and must be consistent with the museum's mission as an educational and cultural institution. Museum exhibitions, collections, and furnishings may not be altered or removed. Waterloo Region Museum reserves the right to waive or modify the stated guidelines.
Due to the large number of requests that we receive from people who would like to take engagement and wedding photographs at the museum and village - each with their own unique requirements - we limit access for this type of photography to those people who have chosen to have their marriage and/or reception here.
