Elopements and Intimate Weddings
The Study
The Study offers a lovely dining room with some subtle splashes of playfulness, like the delicate rainbow polka-dots on the wallpaper and the pink ceiling. This is an elegant setting for a small and intimate wedding where you can connect over beautiful food and admire the paintings from the Royal Society for Arts that decorate the walls.
Small Weddings
The Garden Room
For weddings of up to 24 guests, our fabulous Garden Room offers a private room with a difference. This unorthodox, Victorian-style space is positively smouldering with a bohemian atmosphere. Rich, vivid colours and eclectic artwork create a boutique dining space that’s big on drama and impact.
Large Weddings
The Drawing Room
For a wedding party of between 24 and 50 guests, the Drawing Room, with its big bay windows, is an ideal venue. This gorgeous room feels luxuriously sumptuous and colourful while still being light and airy. With its beautiful, large bay window and open fire, it’s an ideal venue for a celebration.
Exclusive Use Wedding Venue
For parties of 50-70 guests, we generally request that you reserve Cromlix on an exclusive use basis, particularly if you would like to have evening entertainment. Our Glasshouse restaurant is an airy space, filled with uplifting natural light and adorned with fresh botanicals and exquisite décor — perfect for those who’d like to bring a little of the outside, in. A beautiful open-plan conservatory, this area can accommodate up to 70 guests on round tables for a wonderful wedding breakfast followed by dancing.
For wedding parties of up to 300 guests, we can put up a beautiful marquee or tipi stretch tent on the front lawn. Here, a ceremony, dinner and dance can be hosted with your wedding breakfast prepared by our chef and team. Please note that a minimum two-day exclusive-use hire is required to set up. Marquee hire is not included in the exclusive use price, but we’d be happy to recommend one of our trusted suppliers for a full quotation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Booking a Wedding at Cromlix
How do I book our wedding at Cromlix?
We will prepare a bespoke quotation for you and then show you around Cromlix and all the celebration spaces. Once you have decided that you would like to have your
wedding with us, we take a 25% deposit of the overall cost to confirm your booking.
Once the deposit and contract are received your Wedding Coordinator will be
confirmed and the fun really does begin.
How many people can you accommodate for weddings?
Cromlix offers a range of exquisite locations for weddings of all sizes. Whether it's an intimate elopement, a micro wedding for 12 guests in our Garden Room or a grand celebration of up to 70 in our Glasshouse Restaurant. Any more than 70 would
require a marquee build on our Croquet Lawn, which it is possible to arrange. Cromlix can help introduce you to third party marquee contractors to facilitate this.
Do you have any packages?
We believe that each wedding is unique and individual. For that reason, we do not have any wedding packages. We work with each couple to create their dream day.
What is the smallest wedding we can have?
Cromlix offers intimate settings, our chapel is a wonderful intimate space, perfect for weddings with as few as 2 guests or even elopements.
When do I need to make further payments towards our wedding?
6 months prior to your wedding, a 50% deposit of your total anticipated wedding spend is required. 1 month prior to your wedding, a 25% deposit of your total anticipated wedding spend is required plus any extras/upgrades including your food & beverage order.
When do we have to finalise all the details for our wedding?
We will arrange a call a month prior to your wedding, where we’ll run through all the finer details and check that we have everything noted and correct.
We’ll confirm your guest numbers, menu, drinks menu, room bookings and any other important details. This gives us time to brief the Operations Team and make sure we have everything in place for your big day.
Planning Your Wedding
Do I need a Wedding Planner?
It’s entirely up to you how involved you’d like to be. We can help recommend suppliers, or you may wish to work with a Wedding Planner to bring your vision to life.
On the day, the Events Team ensure seamless delivery of your wedding.
What other help is available?
We have a list preferred of suppliers, from florists to event lighting specialists, and toptier photographers. We'd be delighted to share these professionals with you.
Exclusive Use Weddings at Cromlix
Is Cromlix available on an exclusive use basis?
For the ultimate celebration, you can reserve Cromlix exclusively and have the entire luxurious retreat to yourselves.
What does exclusive use include?
Exclusive use ensures complete privacy, with the entire estate and grounds exclusively reserved for your guests. This includes all 16 bedrooms, the Glasshouse Restaurant, and all the private dining and public rooms in the hotel.
Wedding Accommodation
What time can we have access to our room(s) on the day of the wedding?
Check in time is 3pm, so we do recommend booking a room the night before, to make
sure you have a wonderfully relaxing morning on the day of your celebration!
We tend to find that an in-house ceremony start time of 2.00pm works particularly well. Please be aware that we cannot guarantee check-in to bedrooms until 3.00pm on your wedding day.
For this reason, we would recommend that any guests arriving at the hotel on your wedding day arrive already dressed – we will relieve them of their luggage at the front desk, and they can then check-in in their own time, after the wedding ceremony.
When do I need to book rooms for ourselves and our guests?
Our rooms are popular and so we’d recommend you book them as soon as possible. You will be required to book a minimum of 3 rooms for your guests at a special
reduced rate at the time of booking.
Extra beds in rooms
Extra beds can be added to Suites and Deluxe rooms for children under the age of 12. Extra beds are £65.00 per night. Cots added at no extra charge.
Check-in/Check-out times
Check-in time for residents is from 3.00pm onwards.
Check-out time for residents is 11.00am.
Room cancellation policy
For all bedrooms booked as part of the main wedding contract, we request a complete rooming list at least 2 months prior to the wedding date. Any rooms left unallocated to specific guests after this time will be released without prior notification by the hotel.
If the wedding couple thereafter requests unallocated rooms to be kept within the bridal party rooming list for potential wedding guests to book within 3 months of the wedding, and these rooms are subsequently not required for the wedding party, the unallocated rooms will be charged in full to the main account.
Décor and Special Requests
Can I decorate the house?
We welcome all creative ideas; we just ask that we are aware of everything you’re
planning and that no permanent fixings are used.
Can we have confetti?
You are welcome to use dried petals for outdoor confetti.
Are marquees available?
Cromlix's Croquet Lawn provides a perfect setting for marquees of all sizes. We charge a lawn fee of £3,000.00 which is subject to annual increase.
Before you confirm arrangements with a marquee company, you must inform your wedding planner and Cromlix will liaise with the Company. We will also require to see full insurance and public liability documents.
Dog friendly
We are delighted to welcome dogs. An additional fee of £20.00 per dog per room will apply.
Menu Options and Dietary Requirements
Can you accommodate special dietary requirements?
Our chefs are highly skilled and can cater to dietary requirements with advance notice.
Do you offer menu tasting?
We offer a complimentary menu tasting around 3 months prior to your wedding, where you’ll have the opportunity to try the menu.
Samples of wine are also part of the complimentary menu tasting and we can arrange for our Sommelier to be available if you’d like the opportunity to select a wine pairing.
Is corkage allowed?
We have our own Sommelier who carefully selects our wine list and will be happy to source any particular wines you have in mind, and hence we do not offer corkage.
Cromlix's wine collection, curated by our sommelier, offers amazing wines to choose from, starting at £38.00 per bottle with our House Selection.
We kindly request that you provide your order to us at minimum 4 weeks prior to your event date. This lead time allows our sommelier to ensure availability of your preferred wine choices for your celebration. If we do not receive your selections by this deadline, our sommelier would be happy to make recommendations from our current wine inventory to suit your needs.
What about canapés?
Cromlix offers a wonderful range of canapés, individually prepared, and creatively presented. Canapés are priced from £4.65 per canapé.
