We cannot thank you enough for everything you did for us on our wedding day. You made sure everything ran so smoothly and the way you decorated the tables was just perfect. It was everything we hoped for and more. All our guests raved about the venue and they loved the food. You are amazing at your job! Thank you so much again.

We just wanted to say a massive, massive thank you for being so fabulous at organising our wonderful wedding yesterday at the Ghillie Dhu. We honestly had the most perfect day and we couldn't have asked or wished for anything more!! From the moment we met you, we knew our wedding would be amazing and we were not let down yesterday!! We couldn't think of getting married anywhere else or have had anyone else plan it so well for us.
Steph & Scott Davidson
The day couldn't have gone any better. Thank you to Amy especially for keeping everything together and to the rest of the team for making everything look just right, perfect from start to finish. Our guests were blown away with the venue and our photographer really captured its beauty!

David, We honestly can't thank you enough for all your help in organising our wedding, and with such good humour throughout, We were so lucky to have our wedding in such a fantastic venue.
Susan & Al
Despite meeting Amy with only a couple of months to go until our wedding, we were filled with confidence that she understood our requirements and vision for the day. We were immediately put at ease and knew we could rely on her for our special day. On the day Amy was calm and reassuring at every turn. Amy blended into the background and popped up as soon as we needed her. She had timings, guest and vendors under control the whole day and was on hand for a very stressed out bride after the meal. We just want to thank you for everything; you were great and eased a lot of stress for us both in the run up and on the day. You definitely have a natural attention to detail and calming manner so I can see why you're so good at your job! On the whole our day was amazing and all of our guests absolutely loved the Ghillie Dhu. Thank you Amy
Emma & Dave
We just wanted to write a quick note to say a massive thank you for all your help and hard work in the run up to and on the day of the wedding. In particular, I really appreciated how you handled all the last minute changes to the seating plans so brilliantly. You really put my mind at rest and I am truly grateful! Absolutely everyone we spoke to raved about the venue and how great the food was. We absolutely loved the set up of the room and can't wait to see the final photos!
Duncan & Jacqueline
Thank you so much! We had an amazing time, we honestly could not have chosen a better venue for our wedding. You were fantastic on the day, we can’t thank you enough for all the pre-wedding work and for all that you did on Sunday. It went so smoothly, we were so impressed with the staff working that day and many of our guests said it was one of the best weddings they’d been to. The canapés were very tasty, the wedding breakfast was commended by all our guests and the buffet was outstanding. Great testimonial right there. Honestly, when we look back at the photos and see how good the Ghillie Dhu stands out is amazing. We 100% made the right choice. We couldn’t be happier and you thought of everything. You were great Amy, thank you very much.
Taryn & Ewan Diven
From the moment we stepped into the breath-taking auditorium space, we knew the Ghillie Dhu was the one for us! Being a ‘Pinterest bride’, I had so many bespoke options I wanted to incorporate into our day, and from start to finish nothing was ever a trouble. From the hiring of the gold chairs to match the colour scheme, to the ‘Prosecco and Peroni’ reception, the bespoke food options to the ‘Mexican Nacho Bar’ in the evening. You offered us an amazing package as it was, but by going above and beyond, you helped make our day so personal to us.
Leanne & Martin Wilson
From the get-go, Kirsty was nothing other than Out of this World in every aspect of the role. Her communication, organisation and general enthusiasm for every detail kept our levels of confidence at the highest level - right from our first meeting right through until after the day had been and gone. Kirsty’s passion for perfection and sheer professionalism kept us feeling great - small amendments required on the day which may have been seen as a big deal were completed discreetly and with such finesse that it would have gone completely unnoticed to anyone who was unaware. She is truly out of this world and we couldn't have asked for a better person to help make our day as beautiful as we both imagined. Thank you!!!
