- MMolly & Kyle05/11/2025Our Day 11.10.2025Our Day 11.10.2025Not just a wedding venue! We couldn’t have imagined a more magical place to celebrate our wedding than Culdees Castle Estate. From the moment we first visited, we were completely enchanted by the stunning grounds and the serene beauty of the chapel — it was love at first sight. The estate has a timeless charm that made our day feel like a fairytale. Tracey, Rob, and the entire team were nothing short of phenomenal. Their warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail made the entire experience seamless and joyful. Tracey was especially incredible — her support in the months leading up to the wedding was invaluable, and the day before the wedding she was right there helping us set up, making sure everything was perfect. The pavilion was the ideal space for both our meal and the evening party. It was beautifully set up, spacious, and had the perfect atmosphere for celebrating with our loved ones. Every moment felt special, and the flow of the day was flawless thanks to the team’s hard work and care. One of the most meaningful aspects of choosing Culdees Castle Estate was knowing that our wedding contributed to the ongoing renovation of this historic gem. It feels wonderful to be part of its story and to support the restoration of such a unique and beautiful place. We are so grateful to everyone at Culdees for making our wedding unforgettable. If you’re looking for a venue that combines elegance, heart, and history — this is it.Not just a wedding venue!

- CColin28/08/2025An absolutely amazing dayAn absolutely amazing dayAn absolutely amazing day What an amazing team at Culdees Castle Estate and what a venue. Our wedding day was all we hoped for but far more. Everything from venue to food to music to celebrant to Indian priest was fantastic. Culdees was one of a very limited number of venues who allowed us the privilege of hosting a western and Indian ceremony involving the small contained fire needed for the ceremony. Not only that but they were very happy for us to employ our own caterer (Indian) An absolutely amazing day What an amazing team at Culdees Castle Estate and what a venue.

- RRonja & Scottie04/08/2025Magical Venue and TeamMagical Venue and TeamWith culdees, you're not just booking a wedding venue. You're booking a fantastic team that works behind the scenes, going above and a beyond, you're booking fairy-tale decorations, and you're contributing to the restauration of a Scottish castle. For us, Culdees was a clear first choice after our visit, both for price value and for their beautiful locations. Tracey and Rob were amazing from the start of the planning process, helping us get organised with lots of recommendations and help, but also were always open to new ideas we wanted to try! They were very communicative and proactive with us and vendors, and so many guests commented on their amazing work during the day. We also really appreciated their warm, welcoming nature and flexibility when our plans changed. It felt like a collaboration with friends with no pressure. We honestly couldn't have chosen a better place to celebrate our special day with our loved ones. We'd wholeheartedly recommend Culdees Castle as a venue, and will be back in the future.With culdees, you're not just booking a wedding venue.

- JJennifer28/07/2025The most magical wedding The most magical weddingWe had our wedding on the 21st of June 2025 and it was the most magical day ever. From the moment we drove up to the entrance I knew this had to be the venue for our wedding. Every area, :chapel, bar, pavilion, courtyard, outdoor areas and bathrooms were finished to such a high standard and quality. The venue is so versatile and can be adapted to everyone’s vision and dream wedding. All our guest spoke about how amazing, beautiful and unique it was. Having access to the venue to set up the day before and then having all the lodges the night before allowed us to have close family to have a celebration the day before. Additionally having time to have a breakfast the next day finished off the wedding weekend amazingly. This allowed us to have a full weekend celebration. We don’t know how we could have had as such a successful wedding without the help and support from Tracey and Rob. From the very first meeting they both made us feel so welcome and relaxed. Throughout the process they kept us on track on our side, suggested and organised vendors and updated us about further renovations. On the day the whole team were extraordinary, they helped set up the venue, steamed our dresses, organised and helped all our guests and kept everything on track. Our friends and family still discuss how amazing the team are. Nothing was a hassle and our day ran smoothly from start to finish thanks to them and allowed us to be completely stress free and fully enjoy our day. Culdees Castle was our dream venue and the team made it a reality. We are sad it is over, but thanks to Tracey and Rob, we know we are welcome back anytime.

- RRebecca and Fraser06/06/2025Dream Wedding Dream WeddingWe honestly couldn't fault Tracey and her Team. In our vision, we were looking for a venue where we could put a marquee on the grounds. We viewed Culdees when the pavillion in the garden was nothing nothing more than a patch of grass. Tracey had such a vision and we believed that what she was hoping to achieve was exactly the idea in our heads. Watching Tracey and the team continuously transform Culdees as time went on was such an honour to witness and everything they touch, turns out magical! When it came to the day, everything ran without a hitch and that was definitely down to all the suppliers and Tracey keeping everyone on track with timings. We honestly had the best day of our lives and I would recommend Tracey, Rob and Culdees to anybody who is looking for that wow-factor venue with personal touches throughout! Thanks so much Tracey and Rob 🩷We honestly couldn't fault Tracey and her Team. In our vision, we were looking for a venue where we could put a marquee on the grounds.
