Weddings venues / registration offices in East Lothian or Edinburgh

Hiya! Congratulations

I'd recommend looking on the relevant council websites, some of them will show you. So check out Edinburgh city council and Lothian etc. I know some people who have been married in Edinburgh city chambers and said it's lovely.

I always recommend the Scottish Wedding Directory for these things. The magazine is split into areas, and you can filter on their website for finding venues or suppliers.

I always said that if I had a registry office wedding it would be at the South Queensferry office, overlooking the bridges. Then up the street to one of the lovely restaurants! You'd get some gorgeous pictures with the bridges in the background too!

Thanks, some great ideas. Unfortunately the East Lothian council doesn't have much information on their website, but I might get in touch with them directly.

South Queensferry is a great idea - lovely place. The city chambers look beautiful but seem quite expensive based on information on their website?

Maybe it'd be best if I contact both individually and see whether they do any "packages" for just a ceremony with a few guests.

Will check out the Scottish Wedding Directory, don't think I'd come across it but it sounds like it might be very helpful.

Hi Daisy,

These might be of interest:

I always loved the South Queensferry one though, I've not seen inside but you'd get some smashing photos and there are some lovely restaurants within walking distance!

Here's a link to the directory, It's been great for my planning!

Good luck!

We are getting married at the Chambers (in the Melbourne suite), its costing £225 in total. Lovely place! Far cheaper than getting married at a different venue as far as I have seen. X

Also forgot to add, friends of mine got married at S.Queensferry reg office then had a meal at Orocco Pier with just a couple of family members. We were considering this as it sounded lovely. :-) xx

Thanks for your help!

Have an appointment to view the South Queensferry registrar's office tomorrow! Will take my future MIL as my OH will be at work.

I am also planning to view the Lothian Chambers, as that would definitely be in our budget as well. Only worry would be having it in the centre of Edinburgh as we'll be getting married during the festival. It will be a weekday though, so I'm not excluding it as an option.
