From an intimate ceremony nestled within a private garden to a rooftop wedding with views across Edinburgh, Dundas Castle is offering couples even more spectacular settings to say ‘I do’ in 2016.
As of January next year, along with the existing ceremony spots, couples can opt for a wedding in the stunning Garden of Peace within the Castle grounds, or on the roof of the medieval Auld Keep – which also celebrates its 600th anniversary in 2016.
The five star, exclusive use venue offers an incredibly flexible choice for weddings, with a multitude of options for holding a religious, humanist or civil ceremony. Couples looking for a traditional Scottish Castle wedding need look no further than the 15th century Auld Keep, while the elegant main house provides a spectacular home from home for a sophisticated yet comfortable feel. Meanwhile, larger weddings of up to 200 can take place in the contemporary Pavilion Marquee or in the beautiful outdoor courtyard – complete with covering for the cooler months.

Sir Jack Stewart-Clark, owner of Dundas Castle explains:
“We’re noticing a trend for couples looking for new and different options for their wedding ceremonies – making sure that their big day is as individual as they are. While the existing options for weddings are continuing to prove popular, these new spots add a totally different feel to the day. The view from the top of the Keep is unbelievable – on a clear day you can see right across to East Lothian and Fife. Whereas the Garden of Peace is set amongst ancient trees and feels like a perfect oasis of calm, deep within the countryside - a million miles away from the big city just around the corner.
“We’re fortunate that the Castle and estate provide a magnificent blank canvas which can suit any wedding day aspirations. Whether couples want a ‘shabby chic’ feel to their big day, with bunting and homemade lanterns, or if they want the epitome of class and style, we can make the surroundings suit the theme - guaranteed to make sure every wedding is truly unique and personal.”
Dundas Castle is perfectly situated just 15 minutes from Edinburgh airport and 25 minutes from the city centre. Nestled within 400 acres of secluded idyllic countryside, the Castle offers timeless charm and is the perfect place for a romantic wedding.
