Weddings at Lennoxlove House, Haddington

Wildly romantic, surrounded by 460 acres of beautiful, picture-perfect surroundings and graced with the most historic arts and antiquities; getting married at Lennoxlove House really is a fairytale come true.

Whether it’s a small, intimate celebration or a grand affair, choose from the 14th century Undercroft, the majestic Great Hall, the grand marquee or the beautiful sunken lawn to make your wedding a day to remember.

You and your guests can browse amongst some of Scotland’s finest art held in a private collection, whilst enjoying a drinks reception in any of the three magnificent state rooms before tucking into a sumptuous wedding breakfast created by our award-winning chefs.

As the day draws to a close, one of Lennoxlove House’s unique treasures for brides and grooms to experience on their wedding night is a 16th century bed that Mary Queen of Scots reputedly slept in.

Made of solid black oak and beautifully refurbished, the four-poster is intricately carved and has been restored to the magnificent comfort and style that befitted a monarch at the time. It is draped in long, deep red velvet curtains which have been embroidered in the exact style of the Tudor times, replicating many of the embroideries known to have been stitched by Mary herself – a memorable experience at the end of your perfect day.
