Scotland has a huge range of romantic hotels perfect for weddings - from intimate affairs to huge celebrations with hundreds of guests.
With the Scottish Wedding Show taking place at Glasgow’s SEC later this month (October 19-20), featuring 200 of the UK’s leading wedding suppliers, we thought we’d take a look at the best the country has to offer.
So, according to reviews on travel site www.tripadvisor.com, here are the ten that should be on your wishlist.
1. Balmule House
