Weddings at Riddle's Court

"We are from the United States, and decided to get married in Edinburgh after planning our vacation there. Riddle's Court was the perfect venue for our elopement. The Seton room was intimate and personal, with absolutely beautiful architecture. There were so many great places for photos, and it is conveniently located on the Royal Mile in the Old Town, so we could walk from our hotel."

Alex & Cayley, Married in November 2018

"We had our wedding at Riddle's Court in September 2018, and we found Gail and the team to be an absolute delight. They were friendly, approachable (even with silly questions!) and nothing was too much trouble. The venue is really quirky and was unlike anywhere else we had seen; unique and steeped in history and charm."

Shereen & John, Married in September 2018

"Riddle's Court is just a lovely venue for a wedding, and Louise and the rest of the team were fantastic on the day as well as beforehand.

Victoria & Carl, Married in October 2019

"If you want something a bit different but very Scottish then this is the place. Such a gorgeous hidden venue and so close to the castle and the Royal Mile.

Laura & Ross, Married in March 2020

"Honestly everything about the venue was perfect and we can't rate the staff highly enough. Other venues we looked at had 'packages' and a slight pressure to have the wedding a certain way. With Riddles Court we were able to have the small wedding we wanted and it was perfect."

Rachel & Josh, Married in February 2020

"When we first fell in love with Riddle's Court and chose it as our wedding venue, we had no idea that a global pandemic would get in the way of our plans.

We couldn't recommend this place enough."

The original features and historic beauty made it a very special place for us. "

Anna & David, Married in April 2021

"Wow, what a day! ORGANIZING a wedding during lockdown is not advisable, but the team at Riddle's Court made it so easy and stress-free.

"rom our first viewing to our wedding day, the staff at Riddle's Court were nothing but helpful and friendly. To name a few, Roseanne, Gail, Teague and Fiona, were all great at answering our (many!) questions. Nothing was too much trouble. We also really appreciated how much Riddle's Court had plenty of decorations that we could use. We liked the idea of minimising single-use decorations. "

Shona & Jonny, Married in October 2021

"Riddle's Court is amazing. The space, the staff and planning allowed us to take our own suppliers in with no hint of annoyance. Other venues could learn a thing or two from you. It is a perfect location, just off the royal mile and the inclusion of a beautiful apartment for two nights is fantastic."
