About The Balmoral, a Rocco Forte Hotel

Period features. Timeless grandeur. Views out over the stunning, historic vista of the Scott Monument, the Old Town, and Edinburgh Castle. Celebrate the happiest day of your life at The Balmoral, Edinburgh’s most prestigious wedding venue.

Whether you want to hold your marriage or civil ceremony here, or simply celebrate with friends and family, our team—with the help of a dedicated wedding planner, an address book of the city’s best suppliers, and a wealth of experience—can help you craft the bespoke wedding of your dreams.

Choose the Sir Walter Scott Suite for a grand celebration with a red carpet arrival, a gala-style sit-down dinner and dancing until the wee hours, all with panoramic views of the Scottish capital. The Holyrood Suite, meanwhile, has charming heritage features and exceptional views, while our Second Floor Suites are ideal for more intimate gatherings.

From Champagne toasts and elegant canapés to multi-course dinners, we can help you create your perfect wedding menu. Using sensational, seasonal ingredients—the best of the Scottish larder—the dishes will take your breath away and leave a lasting impression on your guests.

We’ll be on hand to ensure that your big day goes according to plan. No detail is too small, or too big. We can arrange decadent spa treatments at The Balmoral Spa and we can even arrange for you to take extraordinary wedding photos on our private rooftop, with the Edinburgh skyline providing a backdrop to memories that will last a lifetime.
