WELCOME
We’re delighted to welcome you to Drumtochty Castle as we celebrate our marriage. We are very grateful to have our family and friends with us on this joyful occasion, and we look forward to sharing the weekend together.
Guests are warmly invited to join us from Friday through to Sunday, with events taking place throughout the castle and its grounds over the course of the weekend.
Friday
24 July 2026
An optional coach will depart from Edinburgh city centre at 1.00 pm on Friday, bringing guests to Drumtochty Castle. The precise pick-up location will be shared nearer the time. Guests are, of course, very welcome to make their own way to the castle. Arrival and check-in will take place between 3.00 pm and 5.00 pm.
On Friday from 6.00 pm, guests are invited to join us for a relaxed Caribbean-themed evening - a small nod to our time living overseas. Dress island chic and enjoy music, games and tropical flavours, with plenty of one love vibes. Rum punch and piña coladas will certainly be making an appearance.
Saturday

Basic breakfast provisions will be provided in all guest accommodation, including bacon, sausages, eggs, bread, tea and coffee, along with facilities to prepare breakfast. All dietary requirements will be catered for, and guests are very welcome to bring anything additional they may wish to have.
The ceremony will take place at 1.30 pm at St Palladius Church, located within the estate approximately a ten-minute walk downhill from the castle. Shuttle transport will be available, and we kindly ask that guests are ready outside the castle from 12.45 pm.
Following the ceremony, celebrations will continue at the castle with drinks, dinner, music and dancing.

A relaxed departure brunch will be available for all wedding guests from 10.30 am, with a selection of hot and cold breakfast options (Irn-Bru included).
For guests who travelled on the coach from Edinburgh, a return coach will depart Drumtochty Castle at 1.00 pm.
