Weddings
Create your perfect day
All of the weddings at Drumlanrig are unique. We will work with you to create your perfect day.
Your memories will be treasured and your photographs unrivalled, whether you have your ceremony in the grand heart of the Castle, or choose an elegant marquee in our gardens.
Ceremony options include:
Dining Room
Have a day to remember in the atmospheric, wood panelled Dining Room surrounded by years of history and heritage. This south-facing room has gorgeous views of the gardens.
Inner Courtyard
With pink sandstone and towers and turrets the Inner Courtyard can’t really get any more fairy tale! A unique wedding space right in the heart of the Castle.
The Front Hall
A majestic space for a romantic Castle wedding, with views up the drive and to the intimate unique inner courtyard. Ideal for small ceremonies or up to a maximum of 80 people.
Outside
The gardens and grounds of Drumlanrig Castle offer a choice of options for a unique outdoor wedding ceremony. Or if you don’t want to brave the Scottish weather the Bowling Green, nestled in the picturesque gardens with the Castle as a backdrop, provides a stunning location for a marquee.
(Please note that on days when we are open to the public, marquee receptions are warmly welcomed, however the inside of the Castle is unavailable for weddings.)
