Step by step guide to your religious wedding ceremony with Auchen Castle (print this page):- Choose a Wedding Date.
- Once you have chosen a date contact us by email (weddings@auchencastle.com)
or telephone [+44 (0)1683 300 407] to check availability
and to book the venue.
We will confirm availability and if your date is not available we will give alternative suggestions. - Once we have agreed a date
we will place your date on hold provisionally until
your deposit is made within 3 days.
Deposits can be paid immediately by credit or debit card. Alternatively forward a cheque to Auchen Castle Accounts Department (Auchen Castle Hotel, Beattock, Near Moffat, Dumfriesshire DG10 9SH, Scotland) within 7 days. - Once we have received
payment with a signed copy of our terms and conditions, we
will ask you to:
- book your Minister; the Ministers' diary is incredibly busy so we recommend as much forward notice as possible.
- confirm the location of your wedding. You can get married in Auchen Castle itself or outside in the gardens (weather permitting). We also can arrange a wedding in a local Church. - Auchen Castle will contact you and confirm that everything is booked.
- You will then need to submit completed
M10 forms to: The Town Hall,
High St, Moffat, DG10
9HF.
You can get your M10 forms by visiting www.gro-scotland.gov.uk or by contacting the Town Hall [Tel +44 (0)1683 220536] but while the forms can be submitted up to 3 months before the wedding they must be in no later than 15 days before.
