Nicola & Graeme 5th June 2021

How the love story began….
We were at the same school (in different years), but we never spoke! It wasn’t until after our school days, 11 years later that were set up by a mutual friend who was one of our bridesmaids at the wedding.

What Nicola and Graeme had to say about their day…
It was perfect from start to finish. We had the best day of our lives.

What was your favourite part of the day?
The moment we saw each other at the end of the aisle. We couldn’t believe that our time had finally arrived.

Is there anything you would change/do differently?
Due to covid restrictions we had to make some small tweaks to the day, however the hotel made sure that we had the most perfect day – and looking back there isn’t anything we would change.

How was your experience at Dunkeld House Hotel?
Absolutely amazing. Nestled on the banks of the River Tay with the most incredible grounds, the setting is literally picture perfect. We knew very quickly after we were engaged that our wedding venue would be Dunkeld House Hotel. It’s a special place for us – Nicola has been coming to the hotel since she was a little girl and always dreamed of having her wedding here one day and after we enjoyed many breaks here together over the years, it became a special place for both of us.

May, the wedding co-ordinator, is absolutely incredible. Throughout our wedding planning, she was always 10 steps ahead. She is always so helpful, her level of organisation is gold standard and attention to detail is something else! This ensured that no stone was left unturned and our wedding day was everything we ever imagined.

The day flowed so well, the food was amazing and the team at Dunkeld could not have delivered us a better day. We, and all our guests, said it was just an amazing wedding. We really cannot thank all of the Dunkeld team enough.

Advice for future Bride and Grooms
Don’t get bogged down in the small details. We can talk from experience that May and the rest of the Dunkeld team take care of them for you to make sure that all you need to do is enjoy your day.

Lynsay & Andrew 19th June 2021

How the love story began:
We have known each other since we were 12 but didn’t get together until we left school at the age of 18.
The rest is history!

What Lynsay and Andrew had to say about their day:
Our day was completely perfect. It couldn’t have gone any better and was exactly how we imagined it to be. We couldn’t have wished for more and were so happy with how our day went.

What was your favourite part of the day?
The whole day! Everything from start to finish was just amazing and we loved every minute of it from getting ready, the ceremony, our reception, and our meal/night reception. Every part of the day went so smoothly.

Is there anything you would change/do differently?
Absolutely nothing. Even with Covid restrictions, we still wouldn’t change or do anything differently.

How was your experience at Dunkeld House Hotel?
Our experience was really great. All the staff were so kind, professional, and willing to help out no matter what. A special mention to May as she was outstanding from the moment we booked, right up until after our wedding. I (Lynsay) was constantly emailing asking a million questions right up to the day and May couldn’t have been more helpful. She really made everything run so smoothly on the day as well. We really couldn’t have picked a better venue.

Advice for future bride and grooms:
Do what makes you happy. You will never please everyone and need to do what makes you happy as you’re only getting married once. Also, enjoy your wedding day and take a few moments to just relax as it goes by so quickly.
