Comrie Croft  

Perth

Braincroft, by Crieff, Perthshire, Scotland Ph7 4JZ

Getting back to nature is seriously on trend and the eco-centric movement is growing in popularity. So if you feel at your most comfortable amongst scenic greenery and want to steer clear of the more formal elements of a wedding then Comrie Croft is for you.  

With some serious Green Tourism credentials Comrie Croft is something a wee bit different. Whether you’ve always dreamed of getting married in a forest, a meadow or in the courtyard of a quaint farmstead, here - in the 231 acres of scenic fields and woodland - you’ll be spoiled for choice. Fancy your own mini Glastonbury on your big day? Or how about a country-themed knees up? Or even a laidback house party bbq? Comrie Croft is a DIY wedding venue which offers you the freedoms you wouldn’t be afforded at a hotel so you can pretty much do your own thing (within reason!) Cost effective, romantic and relaxed, the venue gives you a blank canvas which would allow you to truly make your wedding your own, whilst also providing plentiful accommodation for your guests. A secluded location with plenty of privacy, in the great outdoors - what’s not to love?

Forgans  

Fife

110 Market Street, St. Andrews, Fife, KY16 9PB / 234 Brook Street, Broughty Ferry, DD5 2Ah

Looking for an intimate wedding venue brimming with atmosphere? Then Forgans should be at the top of your list. Exchange your vows at one of the multitude of the surrounding, romantic locations and celebrate your big day in the industrial-chic and relaxed space within the former cleek factory. With its painfully cool décor you won’t be short of a picture-worthy spot for your wedding photos and the Scottish produce-led food and drinks will make sure that you and your guests are well fed and watered.

Choosing between the two picturesque locations - the world famous St Andrews and the scenic Broughty Ferry - will be difficult. The university town of St Andrews - frequently referred to as "The home of Golf" - with its gothic architecture and cobbled streets is certainly a popular wedding destination however Broughty Ferry is hot on its heels. Located just 4 miles outside the centre of Dundee, on the north bank of the Firth of Tay, couples will be spoiled for choice as to where to take their wedding photos. Both of the Forgans seaside venues are conveniently located, with a reputation for ceildih dancing and fantastic gin.

This venue truly makes the most of what Scotland has to offer.
