Wedding planning in the heart of Scotland

Wide Sky Weddings was founded to make your wildly elegant wedding dreams come true. The Cairngorms National Park gives you unparalleled flexibility, stunning beauty and the possibility to truly make your day your own.

This is a place where you really can let your imagination take flight. Perhaps you want to say your vows on a boat in the middle of a loch; or a beautifully personalised handfasting ceremony on a wild and remote mountain peak. Maybe you’re dreaming of a blessing and ceremony among centuries’ old pine forest or a luxurious celebration in the grounds of a fairy-tale castle or country estate?

With Wide Sky Weddings, all this and more is possible

“From vendor recommendations to timelines, she made the entire process seamless and stress-free….Planning a wedding from another country could have been overwhelming, but Lindsay’s calm and reassuring presence made it enjoyable and exciting instead. She genuinely cared about our vision and went above and beyond to make sure every detail reflected who we are as a couple.” Emily & Chase
