Anna & Tim’s story is very different from any we have documented before. The couple got in contact in March 2018 looking for a venue for an intimate wedding reception for around 40 guests. The couple were already in discussion with The Kibble Palace in the Botanic Gardens across the road for their ceremony hoping […]

Nurse Deborah and consultant Phil met at work, which was all kept very hush hush at the start but fell in love very quickly. From the very initial enquiry in January 2018, Deborah Marshall had noted her and fiancé Phil’s ideal wedding date of Saturday 25th of May 2019! The couple visited the venue for […]

After receiving the wonderful news that Mr & Mrs Fox are expecting a baby in January next year, I am delighted to be looking back on their special day with us in March this year. Lyndsey and Kevin got in contact via Wedding Venues in Scotland – a very useful website for couples looking for […]

The enquiry caught my eye instantly as Susan’s dad’s name was in fact Jim MacRitchie, very similar to my late grandfather’s name Jim Ritchie. Turns out the family […]

There is literally so much to talk about when it comes to Laura and Colin Somerville’s wedding planning journey, but I have tried to narrow it down to just over one thousand words. The first contact I received from the new Mr & Mrs Sommerville was from Laura’s mum Kim, who was getting the ball […]

Kate Dunn got in contact with me in August last year enquiring about availability for our Gallery & Private Dining Room. Kate and fiancé Glen were looking to have an intimate wedding ceremony and wedding breakfast in Òran Mór for around 17 guests in the following January. The couple were then looking to exclusively hire […]
