How do I book our wedding at Cromlix?

We will prepare a bespoke quotation for you and then show you around Cromlix and all the celebration spaces. Once you have decided that you would like to have your wedding with us, we take a 25% deposit of the overall cost to confirm your booking.

Once the deposit and contract are received your Wedding Coordinator will be
confirmed and the fun really does begin.

How many people can you accommodate for weddings?

Cromlix offers a range of exquisite locations for weddings of all sizes. Whether it's an intimate elopement, a micro wedding for 12 guests in our
Garden Room or a grand celebration of up to 70 in our Glasshouse Restaurant.

Any more than 70 would require a marquee build on our Croquet Lawn, which it is possible to arrange. Cromlix can help introduce you to third party marquee contractors to facilitate this.

Do you have any packages?

We believe that each wedding is unique and individual. For that reason, we do not have any wedding packages. We work with each couple to create their dream day.

Is Cromlix available on an exclusive use basis?

For the ultimate celebration, you can reserve Cromlix exclusively and have the entire luxurious retreat to yourselves.

Exclusive use ensures complete privacy, with the entire estate and grounds exclusively
reserved for your guests. This includes all 16 bedrooms, the Glasshouse Restaurant, and all the private dining and public rooms in the hotel.

Can I decorate the house?

We welcome all creative ideas; we just ask that we are aware of everything you’re planning and that no permanent fixings are used.

Do I need a Wedding Planner?

It’s entirely up to you how involved you’d like to be. We can help recommend suppliers, or you may wish to work with a Wedding Planner to bring your vision to life. On the day, the Events Team ensure seamless delivery of your wedding.

What other help is available?

We have a list preferred of suppliers, from florists to event lighting specialists, and toptier photographers. We'd be delighted to share these professionals with you.

Where is Cromlix? 

You can find us just 3 miles from Dunblane and 10 miles from Stirling. Cromlix is easily accessible from Edinburgh or Glasgow Airport. Let us know if we can arrange a transfer from the airport or train stations.  

Is there a dress code? 

We don’t have a strict dress code, but we’d suggest smart casual attire in the evening.  

Do you offer gift vouchers? 

Yes! We have a wide range of gifts available, which you can [explore here].  

Is Cromlix accessible? 

We have an accessible entrance and parking. However, because Cromlix is a listed building, we don’t have ground floor accommodation or lift facilities in the main building.
