Auchen Castle

I don't know where to begin describing how perfect our wedding day was at Auchen Castle. From start to finish, the team at Auchen Castle were amazing. We live pretty far away, so having the All Taken Care of Package took the stress out of finding trusted suppliers. The venue inside and outside is beautiful in any season and had so much for our guests to explore and enjoy. We did the 'Linger Longer' addition to celebrate with our guests on the Friday night ahead of the wedding on Saturday, and I would really recommend it. All of the food was exceptional, and special dietary requirements were provided for with no fuss. But most of all, it's the team at Auchen Castle that really made our day perfect. They couldn't do enough for us. We had a lot of surprises and intricacies that had to be choreographed perfectly throughout the day. They took all the stress away and nailed it! It was a jam packed day but it ran completely to time, and everything went smoothly. I cannot recommend having your wedding at Auchen Castle enough. A huge thank you to the team for going above and beyond!

What an amazing experience. My brother and sister inlaw got married on 08/11/24. And I couldn't fault a single thing. The wedding was beautiful and out of this world, I have never been to a wedding like this one. There was so much thought gone into it. The staff were very friendly, approachable and went the extra mile to make your stay the best. And the food was just outstanding. The castle and grounds were beautiful and a real sight to see. I have never experienced anything like it. Cleanliness was high proprietary. Thank you to all the staff. I would highly recommend this venue to everyone.

My words will never do Auchen Castle and the whole staff justice! You only need to look at the other reviews and the Trip Advisor Travelers Choice Award to understand how special this place is. I lost count of the number of guests who said "This is the best wedding we have ever been to". Where is the option for more than 5 stars . Our wedding was 2 years in planning. We visited every castle and every inch of Scotland on the hunt for that magical place that could accommodate our requirements and be an encompassing one-stop shop. We opted for 'All taken care of package' and took advantage of having 2 nights at Auchen with a BBQ on the first evening as our guests were flying in from all over the world. Let me tell you all something, you get the 'all taken care of package' and about a million other surprises and gestures. I do not say this lightly, you get treated like royalty. On our quest to find Auchen Castle, we instantly fell in love when we saw the venue, but immediately knew we hit the jackpot after we first met the staff. I visited so many other places and felt people were just doing their job and going through the motions, but not with the staff at Auchen. We opted for all the amazing suppliers that work closely with Auchen and again, we were blown away. Some of the suppliers ranged from makeup artists, photographers, decor, cakes, flying owls, pipers, harpists, cèilidh bands, and fireworks just to name a few. Everyone commented on how slick everything was and the amount of things always going on. The real beauty was the crazy amount of tireless work going on from every member of staff and you would never even know anyone was there - That is an art. We added some external suppliers to the mix including a magician, bar singer, caricaturist, firepit company and a content creator. Some had worked at Auchen previously but all were like one of the team. I don't want to go too deep into all the amazing things, because I don't want to take away the magic from yourself... Let's face it, if you're lucky enough to have found Auchen Castle, you might as well of won the lottery. The romance will bowl you off your feet! You have found your place❤️ You genuinely cannot pay for this level of precision, attention to detail, professionalism, flexibility and dedication, but it appears you can at Auchen! We were made to feel like our wedding was the only wedding in existence. With everything combined and a sprinkle of Auchen magic, this is exactly how fairy tale weddings are made. Auchen Castle made our dreams come true... In fact, better than we could have possibly imagined To all the staff, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. To all the brides and grooms-to-be, focus on being in love, and let Auchen Castle take care of you. Our wedding will feature Achen Castle and the full day in a 4-page spread in the January edition of Your Scottish Wedding Magazine.

Auchen Castle was the chosen venue for my daughter's wedding reception. From the moment we arrived the day before the wedding until the day we left I felt that nothing was too much trouble for them. Any correspondence leading up to the day was dealt with quickly and efficiently but still in a friendly manner. I honestly don't think we could have hoped for better.

My husband and I were married at Auchen in early December and it was the best day of our lives - we would relive it exactly as it was. We stayed at the castle from Friday to Sunday, getting married on the Saturday, and everything from start to finish went without a hitch! The staff were incredibly friendly and felt like family - they were on hand for everything we needed, from the smaller details (such as decorating the tables on the Friday night beautifully) to coordinating our big day perfectly! They went above and beyond to accommodate a menu for the Friday night that was specific to us (the food was incredible, including breakfast)! Although the castle has the space to accommodate a large number of people, there were only 21 of us and the castle was so cosy and never felt too big nor empty. We were there when the castle was decorated for Christmas and it was gorgeous. The rooms were amazing - they are all very large and comfortable. All of our guests were in awe of the venue and their experience! Auchen also work with a tight-knit group of suppliers, which made the whole stay feel so seamless, fun and easy! 5-star experience all the way!

We had our wedding here, came in from USA, everything was amazing, and beautiful and just the absolute best people and vendors. We went in pretty blind and it could not of turned out better and the cost was so reasonable! Truly it was the best day of our lives and they made everything so easy for us, it was actually Magical!
