We got married on the 1st June at the stunning Cluny Castle and it was the most perfect day! We fell in love with Cluny when we first saw it and it is just the most magical place to get married. The Chapel is beautiful with its stunning stained glass windows and didn't feel huge even though we had a smaller wedding. The castle itself has gorgeous rooms to have your pictures taken, my favourite room was the entrance hall with it's black and white checkered floor and suits of armour, it has so much character! Our wedding photos are stunning and all of our guests loved the castle. A big thank you to Fiona, she was amazing and made sure everything was perfect for us. She's so nice and was so helpful over the two years of planning, it was a real pleasure working with her. Thank you also to Cosmo for letting us share his beautiful home for our wedding day. We can't thank everyone enough, we truly had the best day and would thoroughly recommend Cluny to anyone!

Thank you for providing the most beautiful, enchanting venue and supporting Callum & Hannah-Mary with their wedding last Saturday. The castle and grounds looked splendid. You certainly have put in a lot of work restoring the building. The chandelier in the Drawing Room was sparkling! The setting of the marquee across the pond was perfect both day and night. It was just breathtaking looking back towards the castle as evening came. Please thank all of your staff involved in the run up to the big day and on the day itself. For us it was truly a very memorable and magical wedding which all our guests enjoyed thoroughly. Best wishes for further wedding advertures!

A massive thank you to Cosmo, Fiona and their team for giving us the most beautiful wedding day at the most incredible venue. We had so many compliments at the wow factor of Cluny, how well planned out it all was and how amazing the day was. We really couldn't have done any of it with out you. No problem was too big and no obstacle was an issue. You made us feel so stress free on the lead up to the big day and made sure we were ok throughout all parts of our day. You made our own fairytale wedding come true and we cannot thank you enough!

Cluny Castle is a truly exceptional, personal, secluded and beautiful place, absolutely amazing service and really accommodating - they really take an interest in your vision when it comes to planning your wedding. Fiona was absolutely brilliant in helping us to plan the wedding of our dreams when we didnt know anything about planning a wedding! I would highly recommend Cluny as the top Scottish Wedding Venue!

I just wanted to say a massive thank you again to you Fiona for all your help and support. We really could not have asked for a better day and it wouldn't have been possible without you. Really can't thank you enough! Please pass our thanks to Cosmo too - the guests all commented on how beautiful the castle is and it is of course his home which he kindly shared with us for the weekend.
