What could be more romantic than a wedding in a Scottish castle?

Auchen Castle Hotel has an excellent reputation as a wedding venue in Scotland and it is only a few miles from Gretna Green. At Auchen Castle Hotel, the team have years of wedding experience and have hosted everything from lavish TV celebrity weddings to weddings just for two. Irrespective of the size of your wedding, they will make it a truly memorable occasion. The dedicated team of wedding co-ordinators will guide you through every aspect of planning your wedding day, from table plans, wedding etiquette, food and drinks options and legal requirements.

Either civil or religious ceremonies can take place in the castle, or alternatively in the privacy of the castle's beautiful gardens and private woodland. You can choose to exchange your wedding vows in the Italian gardens, where panoramic views of the Moffat Mountain range to one side, formal gardens and neatly manicured lawns to the other as well as an abundance of colorful trees and shrubs with an impressive water fountain as its central feature.

The Auchen Castle restaurant seats 100 diners and extra guests can easily be welcomed. For larger weddings, a marquee can be errected on the lawn, seating anywhere from 150 to 440 people to enjoy proceedings with the castle as a backdrop.

For a very extraordinary experience Auchen Castle can provide a bird of prey from its own falconry centre to deliver your wedding rings in the gardens. One of the magnificent birds will swoop down from the top of the castle carrying a velvet bag containing your wedding rings on command in front of your friends and family members.

Whether inside the castle or out in the gardens, your wedding party will enjoy the very best wedding reception. The team at the castle prides itself on service, cuisine and the personal touches that make you feel like the most important person in the world. You are also offered a variety of choice in menu, drinks packages and entertainment.

Auchen Castle also has its own favours and gifts - miniature bottles of malt whiskeys make fabulous guest mementoes.

The hotel boasts several rooms with hand carved four poster beds adding to a romantic atmosphere that wedding guests from all over the world have experienced.

We look forward to helping you create your romantic Scottish Castle Wedding.
