Ballintaggart Expands to Become Perthshire’s Ultimate Foodie Wedding Destination

Ballintaggart, Perthshire’s premier destination for culinary excellence, has announced the expansion of its bespoke wedding offerings, designed for true food lovers seeking an unforgettable celebration in the heart of Scotland.

With a focus on hyper-local ingredients, seasonal menus, and personalised touches, couples can work closely with the Ballintaggart team, ensuring that each dish, cocktail, and canapé reflects their personal story and love for Scotland’s rich natural, larder.

With weddings that are as unique as the couples they host—no two menus are the same. Each is curated specifically for the couple, incorporating local ingredients at the peak of their season and tailored to the guests’ tastes and memories.

“Guests often tell us they want something different from the traditional wedding experience,” says Chris Rowley, co-founder of Ballintaggart. “They come for the food, the connection to the land, and the intimate setting. We provide all of that with a bespoke touch—each celebration here is truly one of a kind.”

Nestled in a picturesque valley near Aberfeldy, Ballintaggart is accessible yet remote enough to feel like an escape. Conveniently located near the Caledonian Sleeper train route, it offers a peaceful alternative to long-distance destination weddings.

The nearby valley is rich with accommodation. Ballintaggart also provide exceptional accommodation, from the One MICHELIN Key rated The Grandtully Hotel, an elegant eight-room hotel with bar and restaurant, to the luxurious self-catering accommodation at Ballintaggart Farm, overlooking the Tay Valley, which can host up to 18 guests.

“Perthshire offers a magical and unique location for couples looking for a memorable and luxurious experience.” Chris adds “At Ballintaggart we offer couples a modern Scottish experience, from stunning landscapes, exquisite food and drinks to an exceptional venue for the perfect intimate wedding”

Beyond weddings, Ballintaggart’s culinary ethos shines in its ‘Slow Sundays’ and ‘Feast Nights,’ where guests can savour dishes crafted from the finest seasonal Scottish produce.

As chair of the Perthshire Regional Food Group, Chris works tirelessly to elevate the region as a food destination, fostering collaboration among local businesses. This commitment to community and collaboration is woven into Ballintaggart’s offerings, which emphasises quality, locality, and the rich diversity of Perthshire’s culinary landscape.

Ballintaggart’s Cook School also invites guests to learn about the region’s flavours as well as improving their own skills at the same time. From sourdough making to seasonal suppers, foraging walks to cooking over fire, each class is small and intimate, giving students time to learn from their expert chefs.

Whether it's an intimate, candle-lit Feast Night or an elegant and intimate wedding celebration, Ballintaggart creates unforgettable experiences that leave guests feeling connected to the heart of Scotland.

Limited wedding dates are available for 2025, and couples are encouraged to explore this unique setting during Ballintaggart’s wedding open day early next year.
