Incredible wedding ceremony

I had my wedding ceremony at the Old Kirk on 12/8/18 and it was incredible. My wedding was around 45 people and it was the perfect size. The Old Kirk looks even more amazing in person!

What a sublime venue

Firstly, What a sublime venue. I’ve attended a family wedding as well as a friends wedding at Glencorse. The experience was absolutely first class. From initial introductions for the family wedding with the Glencorse team, to the moment we left. No matter what we requested, nothing was ever an issue, in fact Alasdair, Sarah, Paul and the team went above and beyond to accommodate us. The Kirk is just sublime and totally unique, it really set the scene for the family and guests.

Wonderful wedding at Glencorse House

We got married at Glencorse House last weekend and had the best day! The Kirk was a truly stunning venue for our ceremony and the marquee and surroundings were a beautiful backdrop for the reception. Sarah, the wedding coordinator set up all our decorations for us, reducing stress levels in the days leading up to the Big Day. She was also amazing on the day at overseeing everything! Blackberry Cuisine, their exclusive caterer was also fantastic.

From a photographer's perspective

Glencorse Kirk is a very special venue to work in. Over the past 5 years I've had the opportunity to work there as a photographer on multiple occasions and for a variety of events and every time was a blast. Apart from the kirk itself (which is magical) the estate offers a variety of locations in which to take some truly fabulous photographs. The hosts are wonderful to work with and spare no effort to help make your job as a photographer easier, even when they've already got so much to pay attention to. They run a right ship but they run it with ease and grace and always with good humour. I always get a ripple of excited travelling up my spine when a couple books with me and informs me that they have chosen Glencorse as their venue. I you're a couple I can highly recommend booking your Wedding at Glencorse and if you're a photographer getting to work there; you're in for a great day at work and your portfolio is about to get a serious boost as well!

Glencorse House is such a beautiful venue! The rustic kirk feels so magical and always looks fantastic in photos The marquee and grounds are so pretty as well. We have now worked with the Glencorse team on many weddings, Alasdair, Sarah and the team are just great, so friendly and flexible, and always do their best to make your day special! Would highly recommend when looking for a Scottish wedding venue!

Such a wonderful, peaceful and magical place

Such a wonderful, peaceful and magical place. Tucked away from the world and I can’t imaging a better place for a wedding or a hand fasting. Alasdair was really helpful and accommodating - highly recommend a visit.
