What about a wedding on the loch itself? Sweeney’s Cruises are the largest cruise operators on Loch Lomond and can cater for all your requirements. They have two vessels, the Silver Marlin and the Astina, which are large enough to cater for wedding ceremonies on the Loch.
For a uniquely different venue, the Maid of the Loch provides a static paddle steamer to hold small wedding ceremonies and receptions right on the shores of Loch Lomond. The "Maid", as she is affectionately know locally, used to cruise on Loch Lomond before being left to the elements. Fortunately a few enthusiasts got together with the district council to form the Maid of the Loch Trust back in 1996. She is now weel on the way to being restored to her former glory.
With Ben Lomond in the distance and the Loch sparkling in the sun, a piper would complete your Scottish theme. I recommend only one piping service, as you cannot improve on perfection. Colin Laurie (01389 731977) operates a complete and professional service with only the requirements of the bride and groom in mind.
If you are seeking a castle for your memories we are lucky to have two available both a short distance away from the Lochside.
Balloch castle sits high above the loch and with a clear day the view is stunning. Set within the ground of Balloch park it also offers a great venue for your main wedding party photographs.
Dumbarton Castle sits proud on the Clyde and has all the traditional features you could possibly hope for. Period cannons, enchanting stonework and stunning views down the Clyde set this venue apart for romantic photographs.
