Can we legally get married in Scotland if we’re from the U.S. or Canada?

Can Tartan Weddings customize wedding packages?
Yes, we tailor each package to fit our clients' unique preferences and needs, ensuring a personalized and memorable experience.
How far in advance should we book our wedding?
We recommend starting at least 6–12 months in advance to secure your dream venue and ensure enough time for legal paperwork. But if you’re planning a shorter timeline or elopement — we can still make it happen!
Does Tartan Weddings handle legal documentation?

Are there options for post-wedding events?
Yes, we can organize post-wedding activities like castle tours, whisky tastings, or ceilidh dances to enhance your celebration.
Can you help us find and book a Scottish castle or venue?
Yes, we specialize in castle weddings and have strong relationships with some of the most romantic venues in Scotland — from grand historic castles to hidden Highland gems. We’ll match you with the perfect venue based on your vision and budget.
Do we need to travel to Scotland before the wedding?
No, it’s not required. Many of our couples plan everything remotely. We handle everything on the ground — venue visits, vendors, legal appointments — and only need you here a few days before the wedding for the final paperwork and celebration!
Can we include Scottish traditions like handfasting or whisky blessings?
Absolutely! We love incorporating traditional Scottish elements like handfasting ceremonies, bagpipes, tartan sashes, and whisky rituals. We’ll walk you through the options and help tailor a ceremony that feels meaningful to you.
Can you help us with other vendors (photography, flowers, etc.)?
Yes! We work with trusted, high-quality local vendors for photography, florals, officiants, music, catering, and more. You’ll get access to Tartan Book whick will have a large list of currated vendors — or we can fully coordinate it all for you.
