Description

Slumbered in the arms of a quiet Scottish Highland Glen, surrounded by towering mountains, enchanted woods and light dancing on the water, St. Mary's is the perfect sanctuary for a small home-made wedding. We're so proud to share our quirky converted church home with you (also a recording studio) to offer unconventional and intimate elopement ceremonies for gatherings of up to 10 guests, plus yourselves of course. We're all about slowing things down with that home from home feeling, offering you the perfect place to share your vows, unwind, embrace and celebrate.​ Musician and artist Jamie and Charlotte behind the magic offer complete flexibility to host your wedding ceremony in understated style and complete privacy, together with a very relaxed, welcoming atmosphere and environmentally friendly ethos. If it's just the two of you wishing to escape the pressure of family and friends, they will be more than happy to act as witnesses if required.

St Mary's truly is a place where magic happens, where dreams come true.
If more stars could be given, we would certainly have done so. Why you ask? Because St Mary's truly is a place where magic happens, where dreams come true. From the very beginning the contact with Charlotte was warm and honest. She provided us in detail what the possibilities were when it comes to what you need for a wedding. She arranged the make-up and hair artist, a lovely and beautiful wedding cake, a stunning wedding bouquet with corsages and most of all: she made us feel at home and at ease. As did her husband Jamie, what a magnificent cook he is! We were offered extensive menu's we could choose from. And is was a difficult choice; everything was more than yummy! And the grazing boards were fantastic! On our special day everything was more than right...it was awesome. Such lovely and heart warming couple they are. St Mary's and her surroundings are overwhelming, it is a privilege to us that we were able to get married in such a wonderful place! Thanks so much Charlotte and Jamie for having us! Lots of love and Knuffels! Jo-Ann and Jacco

No words to describe the beauty and cosiness of this place!
No words to describe the beauty and cosiness of this place! The surroundings are breath taking, and the space itself is filled with so much character! Charlotte & Jamie are the most wonderful couple of people you will ever meet, who will ensure your special day feels so special it will make you cry - it made me cry, twice. Everyone kept raving about the food and decor, but it was their warm energy and kindness that made us feel at home. We would choose to get married here time and time again. We had the most perfect day that exceeded our expectations. From start to finish, the communication with Charlotte was wonderful, and since they did all the heavy lifting - cake, food, decor, and the venue, the process of wedding organisation was a breeze. St Mary’s is a wee gem of a place, perfect for anyone looking for an intimate wedding in Scottish Highlands. Charlotte & Jamie, THANK YOU 🫶 Mrs & Mr Peake xx

One of the finest experiences of our lives. Our wedding day was simply perfect. Charlotte, Jamie, and the team were some of the kindest, most talented, and loveliest people we've every met. We have friends for life in Scotland. I cannot recommend St. Mary's Space highly enough.

What a day!
What a day! I wouldn't know where to start and where to stop. We were able to meet some great people. Charlotte and Jamie, you really are an incredible team and made our journey so special. Charlotte, you will always have a special place in my life. You made everything so easy for me, you really have found your purpose. Jamie's passion for the incredible food, we were all blown away, it was amazing. Your home is simply wonderful and we are grateful that we were able to call it our home for a day. Thank you!!! I wrote regularly with Charlotte for almost two years, a time I will always remember with a heart full of love. It is so rare to meet such empathetic people, such incredibly friendly people like Charlotte and Jamie. We would never have wanted to spend our wedding anywhere else but at St Mary's with so much positive energy. Much Love!!

Our day felt fuzzy and warm and we just felt so special.
We had the most amazing wedding day at St Mary’s. Charlotte and Jamie put so much thought into everything they do. Jamie created an incredible lunch for us including yummy sandwiches, soup and even rustic cheese on toast which was a favourite with our guests. The venue itself is ridiculously beautiful and if you’re a fan of a relaxed vibe, quirky and super beautiful decor with a backdrop of the most stunning Scottish scenery then this may be the place for you. Charlotte was the most attentive, answering hundreds of questions over the year or so that we prepared for the wedding. We were probably a little bit annoying with the amount of detail we wanted clarifying but she is so patient and kind and will go out of her way to make sure you have the BEST wedding day. All our entertainment, flowers, hair and make up, cake, food, decor was sorted for us and took so much stress off our shoulders which was another huge appeal for us. Our day felt fuzzy and warm and we just felt so special. Thank you so much. Abby and Scott xxx

We had a fairy tale dream wedding at St Mary’s
We had a fairy tale dream wedding at St Mary’s, it really was special and utterly amazing. Fairies, toadstools and pink candles our day was one to remember forever and always. Charlotte and Jamie have created an outstanding space for your wedding. We can’t get over how incredible our day was thanks to them. We danced, we sang and we ate delicious food. It was unbelievably glorious 💗 thank you for everything Charlotte and Jamie 💗

The most perfect wedding day at St Mary's Space.
Charlotte and Jamie gave us the most perfect wedding day in their home at St Mary's Space. Everything about the day was amazing. The little personal touches like our names engraved in wood and on stones made us feel so loved. The Church space itself was quirky and stunningly beautiful. The food was absolutely gorgeous, not only the wedding food but also our breakfasts which were delivered to our cabin. Our (not so) little glamping cabin was warm and comfy. The surrounding countryside was magical and the sun smiled on us all day. We had the most perfect day.

There's a magic at St Mary's that you won't find elsewhere.
There's a magic at St Mary's that you won't find elsewhere. It's a place that is clearly born from wonder, spirit and love. From the day we decided to elope here, all the way from Australia, there was nothing but excitement. Charlotte's packages were absolutely perfect for our needs and she made the whole process so easy. Although, Jamie's food and hospitality puts him in great competition for favourite. The whole experience was truly priceless, my husband and I do not regret a single thing about our decision. Keep in mind, St Mary's will stay with you. The warmth of Charlotte and Jamie, the fascination of the venue, and the pure mystical presence will all make a home in your heart and you will leave a little piece of yourself when you leave. Miss you already xx

It was truly a perfect day in every way.
We found St Mary's & just knew it was the place for us. We wanted a really relaxed and special day & everything about our wedding exceeded our expectations. Charlotte & Jamie are exceptional people, with a beautiful home & Charlotte really went above & beyond to create an incredibly special space for us, with so many little touches that throughout the day we would all be discovering something new. The intimacy of St Mary's Space really is something else, & we felt comfortable to be ourselves!
