The Setting
Loch na Bo is an exclusive-use private estate wedding venue in Scotland, offering ~900 acres of woodland and grounds surrounding a 42-acre private loch for intimate ceremonies, marquee celebrations and multi-day weddings.
A wedding at Loch na Bo is as flexible as it is unforgettable. The Estate’s lawns, woodland paths, and lochside clearings offer a choice of ceremony locations, from a quiet exchange of vows by the water to a larger gathering on the house lawns. Many couples welcome guests with drinks overlooking the loch before moving to a marquee reception and dancing beneath the Highland sky.
When you book Loch na Bo for your wedding, the entire Estate becomes yours. Couples often turn the celebration into a full weekend, from a relaxed welcome evening to the wedding day itself and even a farewell gathering the next morning. With no other events on the calendar, your time here is private, flexible, and completely your own.
Loch na Bo can host intimate elopements for fewer than 20 guests or full marquee celebrations for up to 150, with accommodation for up to 12 guests in the house. Whether you want a simple ceremony surrounded by nature or a multi-day event with every detail arranged, the Estate provides the space and freedom to bring your vision to life.

Speyside’s renowned whisky distilleries, world-class golf courses and the Moray coast are all within reach.
