Weddings

Elegant, tasteful, unique, and utterly romantic. Let your imagination wander around the grand setting of an 18th Century stately home, and let us create a unique and truly memorable experience for you and your guests.

Whether the style of your wedding be traditional or modern, vintage or contemporary, the classic setting of Dumfries House will only enhance it. Be it inside the House, or inside our beautiful, purpose built marquee, you can relax into your big day, safe in the knowledge that we have taken care of every detail: from the arrival drinks, and champagne welcomes to the exquisitely prepared locally sourced food...your every requirement will be smoothly and elegantly in hand.

If you have ever wanted to be treated like royalty, we are very proud to say that our prestigious events team will apply an expert touch, with deft execution, so that every part of your day will pass with effortless style.

Dumfries House has romance built into every brick and every corner. The 5th Earl of Dumfries commissioned the building and its contents to capture the heart of his future bride, and it has been capturing hearts ever since. From the drawing room to the bedroom there are stunning examples of original Chippendale furnishings. Wherever you turn, the eye is constantly bathed in luxury, beauty and warmth. Even down to the perfect symmetry of each side of the building matching the other...everything says “family”, everything says “togetherness”, everything says “home”

The very first wedding took place here in 1792 between John, Viscount Mountstuart and Lady Elizabeth Penelope Crichton, from which the line of Marquesses of Bute have sprung ever since. So your first steps together into your future as a married couple are also steps that will echo in history...
