Perfect wedding day thanks to the team at Arta!
We would like to express our deepest thanks to Arta and all the staff who went above and beyond to make our wedding day feel like a fairytale. From the stunning setting to the seamless coordination by the staff, the tasty food, and the magical atmosphere—everything about our day was a dream.  Our guests couldn't stop raving about the venue and how unique and romantic it was. We can't wait to return for many date nights in the near future.

A memorable experience from start to finish - we wish we could do it all again!
We can't thank Heather and the Arta team enough for the most special experience. My partner and I had our wedding ceremony, dinner and reception in Arta, and it was a day we would never forget for the rest of our lives. The Arta team was very responsive, supportive and reactive to any changes we made to the day's plans. They are experts in wedding planning and gave us lots of good advice that helped ensure our day went as smoothly as possible, especially considering we had 100+ Guests. The wedding planner, Heather, was a great support during the last few stressful weeks of planning and helped take the pressure of organising off of us. We were also so impressed by the restaurant manager, bar staff and fantastic compère for the evening - who quickly and seamlessly understood our vibe and matched the energy, bringing lots of fun. Everything from planning, food and drinks, the first dance, and not forgetting the iconic and memorable petal drop, was so magical. Thank you, Arta team, for the best day of our life. To any couples considering Arta, I couldn't rate them any higher. The venue is unreal, and the team involved were excellent. I wish we could do it all over again!

Perfect Glasgow Wedding Location
Arta as a Wedding Venue is so unique. The ambiance of the venue makes it an easy choice for anyone looking to hold their Wedding there. So many of our Wedding Guests commented that Arta was such a beautiful and unique place to get married From our initial enquiry right up until the day of our Wedding Heather and the Team handled everything in a courteous, friendly and professional manner. There Communication was second to none guiding us through our preparation for our big day. On our Wedding Day in addition to Heather a shout out goes to Stephen the Master of Ceremonies and Charlie who were exceptional managing our day throughout and to the Chef/Catering Staff providing quality delicious food. Arta is the place to go to hold your Wedding.

A perfect day
We had a perfect wedding at Arta. Heather, our wedding co-ordinator, was so helpful and responsive throughout, and no request was ever too much. The actual day was amazing: we were supported throughout, and the team were so professional and experienced. Everything went off without a hitch. Arta itself as a venue is stunning. It's beautiful inside, and all of the candles made for a fantastic atmosphere. Being in the centre of Glasgow it was also very convenient. The food was absolutely delicious, too. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Arta.
Response from the venue

The best wedding venue in Glasgow
Arta is an absolutely amazing venue in Glasgow. It’s bright, colourful and filled with flowers, giving the impression of being abroad! The wedding team, lead by Heather are fantastic. Our day went SO smoothly, and I honestly didn’t feel stressed one, which is exactly what I wanted on our big day. The food is great, the team are great and the location is great. 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for a Glasgow wedding!

Beautiful venue and brilliant staff
We chose Arta because of it's gorgeous decor and uniqueness and it tied in well with our engagement in Spain. Our coordinator, Heather was extremely good at communicating with us from the day we signed up and we were in no doubt that the day would go exactly how we wanted. The venue was also very accommodating of us and the multiple dietary requirements we had for ourselves and some of our guests. So many people told us what a lovely time they had had and what an excellent venue it had been. The staff are all very friendly and you can tell they have been doing this together for a long time. Thank you so much for our wonderful day, Arta.

OUTSTANDING
Outstanding! 10/10 Where to start? We had a wedding cancelled abroad due to covid and felt a bit deflated. We eventually decided to have a wedding at home in Arta and all I can say is I am so happy the wedding abroad never happened. From the very beginning with initial enquires over email to the very moment before leaving on the night of our wedding was a dream. I communicated with Heather the wedding co-ordinator to arrange a visit and from that first visit we where blown away. The courtyard in particular was exceptional, traditional Spanish setting and exactly what we wanted for a reception of 35. We booked right away. Any time that arta had a wedding fayre, Heather would email and check if we wanted to come along which we did! Even after Heather kept us updated and said we could attend others if needed. Heather was so quick in her responses and no question I asked felt like it was silly, everything was covered off and I was confident in all our communication that the agreed actions etc would be carried out. thanks again Heather we really appreciate everything you did for us. Next onto the big day! Our guests arrived and have commented on how welcome they where made to feel whilst we where getting pictures taken. Stephen the master of ceremony was outstanding!!!! The minute me and my husband arrived we were greeted with some fizz and anytime we had an empty glass (which was rare) Stephen made sure we where topped up. He was incredible. Several family members and friends have since specifically mentioned Stephen and how well he managed the day. Both sets of parents mentioned how well they were looked after and it was so good to see. Stephen was so friendly and we felt that he truly cared about our wedding day going smoothly and wasn’t just a tick box exercise. Stephen you truly are a credit to Arta and I can’t thankyou enough for making our day so special. Another mention is Charlie who is another of the wedding co-ordinators, he was such a great help and was on hand for any requests or queries during the day and spoke to guests and just made everyone so welcome! He was so friendly and we really enjoyed speaking and dealing with yourself during our wedding plans and the big day. We had our reception in the courtyard and then downstairs at night for our evening reception where approx another 100 guests attended. Just as the day – the night was the exact same service. No issues, no problems, just smooth from start to finish. If you haven’t already done so I hand on heart with no hesitation recommend Arta as the place to host your wedding. The food is incredible, we had a tapa’s style dinner during the day and all our guests raved about this and how it wasn’t the usual wedding of some meat and vegetables. Particularly the deep fried aubergine! The venue itself, is amazing, it felt like you where in another country and also we lost all sense of time due to how cosy etc it was. We had very merry guests at 3pm who thought it was late evening haha. Lastly and the most important reason is the people. Having only been married the once I have nothing to compare to however I can honestly say this was truly the best service I have ever received in my life! Once again Arta, thankyou. Kelly and Ross Neilson (married 03.08.2024)

Our Wedding at Arta Glasgow
Our Wedding at Arta Glasgow couldn't have been any more special. From the outset the staff at Arta supported our every need, guided us through our preparation for the big day. They met all our needs for food from tasting to the delivery on the day. The venue itself is beautiful, needing no additional decoration. The natural style of the venue provided great photo opportunities. The ability to have our ceremony performed here and continue through the day and night with kids in attendance and even our dog being able to attend and be our ring barer.

Hi Christine & Scott, Thank you so much for your lovely review. So happy that we were able to make it a special day for you and that you felt taken care of from the outset! Wishing you both a long and happy marriage. Many thanks Heather and Arta team x

Describe the best wedding that happened at Arta?

"We had our wedding at Arta on the 9th of April and it was the most perfect day a couple could ask for. George and Stephen along with the rest of the team made the day run so smoothly. Stephen spoke to one of my bridesmaids to ensure I was taken for comfort breaks as the day just gets away from you. I can't thank the team at Arta enough, the food was incredible (everyone commented on how good the lasagne was), the location is stunning and everyone commented on how relaxed they were in the venue. The venue is a real slice of heaven in the middle of Glasgow. Once you are inside, you could be anywhere. Allowing us to have all three floors made the transition from the ceremony, to dinner, to the evening reception seamless. There is room for a band in Canvas and the dance floor was full the whole night. I'm unsure how surprised the staff were to see a large dinosaur dancing to 'Valerie'. This has been a long-running joke through our wedding planning. We highly recommend Arta for any function!" - The Wedding of Carrie & Colin 9th of April 2023

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Start Your Planning Early. One of the easiest ways to reduce stress in the lead up to your wedding is by planning everything with plenty of time to spare.

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

A personal touch which always pulls on the heart strings is when couples include ways of remembering their loved ones that have sadly passed. Either lighting a candle for them or toasting with their favourite drink.
