Coolest New Venue

Rottal steading wedding venue has got to be one of the coolest new venues around! But don’t take my word for it. I asked one of my couples Katie and Ross who had the most epic party there to give some feedback. Helping you with some of the overwhelming decisions that come with wedding planning. It was a privilege to be the first to shoot a wedding here and hope the photos show just how much fun we had.

Flexible with scenic views

I can't recommend Rottal Steading enough. Our wedding day was absolutely beautiful, Claire and her team were so supportive and accommodating and couldn't do enough for us. The flexibility with having the venue Thurs-Mon make sure our weekend was stress free and relaxed. The scenic views around us just completely set this. The affordable bar prices also made sure that guests enjoyed themselves! I would highly recommend this wedding venue to any couples looking for a venue.

Thank you!

We wanted to say a huge thank you for our wedding. Thank you for trusting us with Rottal and allowing us to have the time to put our best into it. We had the most incredible day, and we know that wouldn't have been possible without you and your team as well. The day felt like it ran so smoothly, for which I think we have your speedy decision making and experience to thank

Rottal should be considered by any wedding parties

As one of Scotland's busiest wedding bands, we see, perform and interact with staff in many venues. Rottal is an incredible venue, its picturesque, the views are stunning, very large beautiful gardens, standard of cleanliness has to be admired and the way its very polite, friendly and professionally run has to be admired. Not a single member of staff didn't smile, say hello or stop to ask if we needed anything. It was absolutely our pleasure to perform here and cant wait to return.

Thank you!

Getting married at Rottal Steading was the happiest day of our lives. We truly believe there are few places more beautiful and special than Glen Clova. The steading’s location is stunning and was an incredible backdrop for our outdoor reception and photographs. We were lucky enough to have bright blue skies and sunshine so the setting really could not have been more perfect. Driving down the glen to the steading is an experience in itself and one that our guests loved and spoke about a lot. The steading building is an amazing space and perfectly equipped, but it can also be a blank canvas for you to make the venue totally your own. Living and planning our wedding from the USA should have been a lot more stressful! However, Claire and Louise are so kind and patient and went above and beyond in helping us with everything. We really could not be more grateful. They helped us visualise our ideas until they all came true. As all our guests kept saying, our wedding will be a wedding to remember - I only wish we could do it all over again!
