Everything about our wedding at Dunollie Castle ran smoothly and I loved every part of our wedding ceremony. All of the staff were friendly and helpful and the wedding co-ordinator Iris talked us through everything and made sure every final detail was organised. I would absolutely recommend Dunollie Castle as a wedding venue!☺️
