Information For Ghillie Dhu

When it comes to looking for a unique venue full of character and beautiful features, the Ghillie Dhu is the perfect one for you.

An award winning historic venue located in the shadows of Edinburgh Castle. An enchanted, Grade A listed former church, the building is over 175 years old and still retains many of its original features and architecture. Our breath-taking Auditorium is brimming with romantic atmosphere, featuring high vault ceilings and candle laden chandeliers. Throughout the years we have been renowned for standout weddings and our in-house wedding co-ordinators have also won accolades for their hard work and dedication.

The Ghillie Team love adding all the extra little touches to ensure your day as is special as can be. From our piper for guest arrival, a candle lit ceremony, confetti toss at our stunning front door, live acoustic music during your drink’s reception and a choice menu. To the evening full of great food, ceilidh bands and cocktail slushies. Whatever you are looking for to make your perfect day – whether its one of our packages or something more bespoke, we would love to help.
