'Thank You Again'

Both Hannah and I wanted to take the time to thank Aileen, Rhiannon, and all the other staff involved at the Kingsmills for making our day as special as it was. The whole day ran and flowed so smoothly, it allowed ourselves and all of our guests the opportunity to relax and enjoy our day, except when I was doing my speech! You guys really did an incredible job to make us feel as special as we did. Thank you again, Mr & Mrs Crush

"Words Will Never Be Enough"

All of our guests have been raving about the food and the staff, stating how they never felt like anything was too much for staff to carry out. If I was booking my wedding again now, knowing what I know, there would be no doubt in booking the Kingsmills. I cannot thank you enough for everything you have done, words will never be enough. I'm now just incredibly sad it's all over! Thanks you for everything, Mr & Mrs Logan

"Just Perfect"

My husband and I held our wedding reception here in June 2024, and I don’t feel there are enough words to express how perfect it was and how incredible the entire experience was for us. The wedding reception was perfect and went so smoothly. Every single one of our guests commented on the quality of the food and have said it was the best meal they have ever had. They went above & beyond at every stage for us and they made our wedding an amazing experience.

Our Perfect Day!

The professionalism and attention to detail of the staff at the Kingsmills Hotel was clear from our first enquiry. At every stage of planning our wedding we found the staff to be knowledgeable, friendly and willing to help with anything they could. Our big day ran absolutely perfectly - everyone from the wedding coordinators to the bar and waiting staff delivered exceptional service on the day and we couldn't recommend the Kingsmill highly enough!

'Exceeded all our expectations!'

From the moment we decided to have our Wedding Day there, until our special day arrived, the staff were amazing. They made us and all our guests feel extra special and worked so hard throughout the day to make all our plans and dreams come true. The hotel was so clean and many of our guests commented on the beautiful rooms. We all had a fantastic time there and the hotel exceeded all our expectations. We would highly recommend this venue to anyone planning to get married!

Perfect Wedding Venue!

We recently had our wedding in the Kingsmills and it was perfect! Everything was so well organised and we didn’t have to worry about anything which made the day much less stressful. The food was amazing, and I was told it was the first time that had catered a fully vegan buffet in the evening, so special thanks to the chefs for putting in so much time and effort, everyone loved it!...Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff, so thank you to everyone who helped make our day so special!

FAQs

Describe the best wedding that happened at Kingsmills Hotel ?

The Kingsmills is made up of five beautiful and individual venues; the Adams Room, Macleod Room, Inglis Ceremony Room, Burns Room and the elegant Kingsmills Suite. As each day is so personal, it's really hard to choose! A recent Spring wedding saw one couple enjoy a garden ceremony to the sounds of birdsong, canapés and champagne in the gardens and they even brought in alpacas to entertain the guests. In the evening, the dance floor was full for a traditional foot-stomping ceilidh - a proper Highland 'knees up' and truly a day to remember.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

We believe that it is important to work with suppliers who truly resonate with you and share your vision for the day. The venue is likely your biggest consideration and a venue with everything on site; bedrooms, leisure, gardens, event space and local contacts and experience will take a lot of organisational pressure off your hands.

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

One of the most special occasions was when we assisted with the live streaming of a wedding ceremony back to the bride's grandmother in Russia. One of our team was able to converse with her, set up the Skype call and tears were shared as the happy couple said their vows.

Describe Kingsmills Hotel in 5 adjectives

Elegant, Personal, Individual, Historic and Special.

Where’s the best photo spot at Kingsmills Hotel ?

Each season, our favourite spot changes depending on the colours, lighting and weather. In Spring, the light streams through the bay window at the front of the hotel - perfect for couple photos. In the Summer, it has to be the wedding garden with the backdrop of lush lawns and bright foliage. Autumn sunsets are perfectly captured on the garden path leading to our garden rooms; the beds flower in rich ruby reds and golden hues. In Winter, venture out under a flurry of snow or if the weather is inclement, the Adams Room by the roaring log fire is second-to-none.

Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at Kingsmills Hotel ?

Wouldn't that be telling!?

What’s your favourite canapé?

The Haggis Bon Bon is the most popular with guests... why stray from a sure winner?! However, our favourite? A whipped Goat’s Cheese Mousse using cheese from local Connage dairy served in a crisp tartlet with beetroot relish.

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

A bacon roll hits different at midnight...

What is Kingsmills Hotel most unique feature?

The Kingsmills building dates back to 1785 and the hotel boasts all the charm of a castle with a striking exterior. However, what our team are definitely the most unique feature; we truly care and every member of the team will go above and beyond to ensure your day exceeds your expectations.

What part of your business are you most proud of?

Our amazing team who welcome you with a smile and make sure you are taken care of from the moment you arrive. They really make the Hotel special and love welcoming back guest and couples year upon year, even decades after their big day! You are guaranteed to leave as part of the family!
