We are thrilled they chose our beautiful 171 year old church overlooking Loch Ness for their ceremony.

They were married by Alyson Stewart Humanist Celebrant photography was Abrightside Photography and they were piped by Bagpiper Jason Faulkner and the stunning floristry was the Bride's Mum, Auntie & Grandmother, the beautiful natural confetti was dried rose petals from Caitlin's Grandmother's garden.

We wish them a lifetime of happiness together ♥️

What a lovely review from our latest guests. They were an absolute delight to host and arrange the activities for their long weekend stay at the Old Manse.

With thanks to Downright Gabbler, Glen Ord Distillery, Muir Of Ord, and Inverness Taxis for providing such excellent services to our guests.
