Weddings at Dryburgh Abbey

Dryburgh Abbey, a remarkably complete medieval ruin set on the picturesque banks of the River Tweed, offers a truly enchanting setting for wedding ceremonies. With its graceful Gothic church architecture and rich history, the abbey provides a serene and memorable atmosphere for your special day. Couples can choose to wed in the elegant 13th-century Chapter House, adorned with original paint, plasterwork, and stunning lattice windows, or opt for an open-air ceremony on the grassed High Altar, near the resting place of Sir Walter Scott. Dryburgh Abbey is suitable for both religious and humanist ceremonies, and by agreement, civil ceremonies. The venue also welcomes couples wishing to use the abbey's romantic grounds for wedding photography.
