Describe the best wedding that happened at Aberdeen, Ardoe House Hotel and Spa?
All weddings are special in their own way. I love how every wedding is different and how personal couples make the day so every couple has the best wedding ever.
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Create a playlist (or multiple) to have as background music for pre ceremony, during the drinks reception and during the meal. This will create a nice ambiance for your day. We have a portable Bluetooth speaker which couples are welcome to use for their special day.
What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?
As the bride was German, a lot of her family either spoke very little/no English. To accommodate this the wedding programme had the ceremony in German, their favour tags were written in German and her sister translated all of the speeches to allow all guests to be involved in every aspect of the wedding.

Where’s the best photo spot at Aberdeen, Ardoe House Hotel and Spa?
We have many amazing spots both inside and outside the hotel, however my top three would be:
- The front door under the arches as this creates some beautiful shaping and the perfect space for your big group photos (and confetti shots)
- The tree stump, our braver couples love to stand on the stump and get the whole hotel and lawn behind them creating the perfect backdrop for their photos (especially in golden hour)
- Visiting our cows, they love to get photos with our couples and they create some excellent, unique photos for your wedding.
