Weddings Dumfries and Galloway
Craigadam House makes for a perfect intimate wedding venue in Dumfries and Galloway, South West Scotland.
Craigadam House Hotel, nestling in its own estate grounds near to the Galloway National Park, provides a picturesque setting and elegant small Scottish wedding venue for exclusive use. Within easy access of the A75, Craigadam is a quirky, unique wedding venue that appeals to couples and guests throughout the country who require something a little different for their big day.
Whether accommodating small events for a handful of people or formal functions with wedding breakfasts for up to 180 guests, every event is tailor-made for each individual couple. Craigadam’s dining room can seat up to 40 people, using either the main table or a selection of round tables. The dining and function rooms have appealed to many brides seeking a more intimate setting than the grandeur of the Marquee.
Craigadam wedding ceremonies can be arranged within the scenic hotel grounds or, if preferred, at the pretty local church in the nearby village. Ceremonies are usually performed by the amiable local Minister, however, civil partnerships and any religious denominational requirements can be met.
Bridal Suites & Accommodation
There are 10 deluxe, en-suite rooms for overnight use by 20 people.
We have a vast knowledge and network of highly qualified local florists, photographers, hairdressers, masseurs, make-up artists and beauticians we regularly recommend and/or organise to attend to couples onsite before the ceremony and celebrations.
Bespoke leisure activities can also be arranged for guest participation throughout your stay and big day.
Wedding Receptions
After the ceremony, guests are greeted with pre-selected drinks such as champagne, sparkling wine, whisky, Sherry or Elderflower cordial for non-drinkers, in tastefully decorated glasses.
Depending on the formality of the event guests can enjoy their drinks straight away in the hotel, on the lawn and in the orchard or, once they have passed the Receiving Line. As the celebrations progress, drinks continue to be served by the Hotel’s bar staff.
Yours for the day (or longer if you like)
Guests have exclusive use of Craigadam House Hotel on the wedding day and night – or longer if desired, ensuring complete privacy and enjoyment of the amenities.
Wedding breakfast & catering
Catering is conducted by the Hotel’s award-winning culinary team and efficiently served by the Restaurant’s full-time waiting staff. All food is freshly prepared and cooked onsite, using produce from local sources and Craigadam Farm. Bespoke menus are created for each wedding breakfast and couple’s can select either three or four courses, followed by coffee and home-made tablet.
Evening buffets are provided for extended parties, to which additional guests may be invited.
