Any catering for additional evening guests (up to an additional 60) will incur a charge This package is in no form transferrable to any other time of the year Marquee Weddings The Roxburghe Hotel is a family house dating back 10 generations, and the Bride and Groom who celebrate their special day with us will truly appreciate the unique nature of this beautiful venue. We respect that the now public rooms were intimate, family areas, and although they are generously spacious, we will never be insincere to this principle by overpopulating the main house. We also appreciate that the Roxburghe has always been a home open to all, and enjoyed by many, so for weddings larger than 64, a White New Century marquee with American Redwood flooring, ivory pleated lining and swags, double glazed doors, heating and eight arm chandeliers is the perfect solution. The Bride and Groom who wish to have a large number present for the entire day can hold their ceremony and meal in the Marquee, as well as enjoying exclusivity of the Main House throughout the day. The marquee will be situated on the lawn, surrounded by the gardens and looking onto the grand entrance of the Roxburghe. Should you just wish to invite additional guests for the evening reception; a dancing marquee can be attached to the side of the hotel, where guests can enjoy the frivolities with an evening buffet. Dining Dining at the Roxburghe is about more than simply eating a meal; it’s about enjoying the finest in locally sourced produce, prepared by our talented team of chefs, in a refined and picturesque setting. Our Head Chef, Neville Merrin has honed his extensive skills in three AA rosette country house hotels, and now brings his passion and ingenuity to the Roxburghe’s modern British menu. We shamelessly take advantage of the abundance of produce cultivated in the surrounding areas, proudly and responsibly sourcing from local farmers and estates. All dishes are prepared by the kitchen. Let us know about any allergies and dietary requirements and the chefs will be happy to offer alternatives. To complement the standard of food is a fine choice of wines including the Duke’s selection from his own private cellar and an extensive whisky selection for the after dinner dram. The day went really well, and we have received lots of feedback from our guests on the delicious meal, how nice the venue was, the quality of service and how friendly the staff were…Your efforts made all the difference on our big day Capacities Ceremony Wedding Breakfast Evening Reception In Roxburghe Room by Fireplace up to 16 guests Roxburghe Room up to 16 guests Fairways Function Room up to 80 guests By Water Fountain in Grounds up to 60 guests3 Dining Room up to 45 guests Hotel Main Building up to 120 guests In Dining Room overlooking Front Lawn up to 64 guests Conservatory up to 60 guests Dancing Marquee up to 130 guests In Conservatory up to 64 guests Marquee up to 200 guests Framed Marquee Up to 300 guests In Marquee up to 200 guests4 3 Seating for up to 30 Capacity over 100 requires a luxury toilet unit 4 Fees - Sample Proposals Wedding for 24 Guests- Roxburghe Package Use of private room or grounds.

It’s a truly magical weekend. Having meticulously planned your day, our wedding co-ordinator will welcome you upon arrival the day before your wedding, ensuring that every detail is as you have dreamed for your celebration. This is the time for the Bride and Groom to relax and let the festivities begin… The afternoon is yours to enjoy at your leisure, perhaps with a glass of champagne on the patio, afternoon tea by the fire, or simply welcoming your guests with a stroll in the grounds, this is the perfect opportunity for you to become better acquainted with the Hotel and the staff who will take care of you at your wedding. We like to make sure the meal on the eve of your wedding is a memorable occasion for those special guests spending the weekend with you. Dining can be as traditional as a 3-course dinner in the dining room, to something as relaxed as a BBQ on the lawn. If the ladies decide they want to monopolise the Bride one last time before she is a married woman we can even arrange private dining in the Roxburghe Room. After dinner, retire to the Library Bar, take in the country house ambience, and sample one of Scotland’s finest selections of malt whiskies. Awake the next morning to a traditional Scottish breakfast. Whether you choose locally smoked salmon, haggis or porridge, it will all be freshly prepared by our Chef, and his brigade. In adhering to tradition, the bride is encouraged to enjoy her breakfast in The Bowmont Suite with her bridesmaids, where she has no chance of encountering the Groom. We do like to do things thoroughly here at the Roxburghe, so the Groom will be whisked away to the championship Golf Course for a round, no doubt with Best Man in tow; this will leave plenty of time for the ladies to indulge in the luxurious treatments of our Health and Beauty Specialists. As the piper begins playing, the beautiful bride descends the staircase, whilst the Groom awaits at the altar. Whether you choose to partake in a religious or civil ceremony, the Roxburghe is the perfect setting to say ‘I do’. The happy newly-weds now have the entire Hotel and grounds as a backdrop for their wedding pictures; romantic scenes by the fireplace, wedding party banter by the 14th hole, or groups shots on the lawn… Roxburghe House is your home for the day. The Wedding Breakfast, your first meal together as Man and Wife, is a special affair. Prepared by our team of expert chefs, it conveys the best of Scottish culinary creativity, and pays tribute to its unrivalled native produce. Following your meal, and speeches that will undoubtedly bring laughter and teary eyes in equal measures, it’s time to enjoy a Scottish shindig. Dance to a Ceilidh band, enjoy a disco or partake of a few drams in the Library Bar. For those who have worked up an appetite a late night supper of stovies will be just the thing. Revel in your beautiful country house, acknowledging the commitment you have made to one another, and to cap it all, step outside to marvel at a spectacular fireworks display. A truly magical way to celebrate your special day. Photo Opportunities Many picturesque locations to choose from including the Golf Course’s ‘Signature Hole’ at the Viaduct, the Lake, Water Fountain, Beautiful Driveway, Sprawling Luscious Grounds & by the roaring Fire Places. The Ceremony The way you choose to say your vows is as personal and individual as any other aspect of your wedding. However you wish to conduct your ceremony, we can provide beautiful surroundings. The conservatory is a perfect year round venue, whether the backdrop is spring flowers, or a carpet of autumnal leaves. During the summer months you can say ‘I do’ by the water fountain and in the winter your guests can enjoy your union overlooking the croquet lawn and spreading oak tree. If you wish to get married in a church, or any other place of worship, we will happily advise you so that your day is as you had always hoped.
