Carberry Tower 

Carberry Tower is a luxurious and tranquil wedding venue set within more than 35 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, just outside Edinburgh. This 450-year-old tower house and estate offers couples a setting that feels secluded and peaceful while still being easily accessible for guests. With its blend of historic charm, manicured gardens and modern hospitality, Carberry Tower creates an atmosphere that is calm, romantic and perfectly suited to weddings of all styles. As Lee Live: Wedding DJ, it’s a venue where the surroundings gently enhance the celebration rather than compete with it.

One of Carberry Tower’s most distinctive features is its private chapel, located within the estate grounds. The chapel’s floor-to-ceiling glass windows overlook a walled garden, flooding the space with natural light and creating a ceremony setting that feels both intimate and uplifting. With seating for up to 150 guests, it allows larger ceremonies to take place without losing a sense of closeness. From a musical point of view, this space lends itself beautifully to carefully chosen ceremony music that complements the serenity of the setting.

Following the ceremony, the layout of the estate encourages a relaxed and enjoyable flow through the day. A short walk from the chapel brings guests to the banqueting Pavilion, where wedding breakfasts and speeches can take place in a light, spacious environment. This separation of spaces helps mark each stage of the day clearly, giving guests time to socialise, explore the grounds and enjoy drinks outdoors before the celebrations move into the evening. It also allows entertainment to be set up discreetly in advance, ensuring a smooth transition later on.

As the day turns into evening, Carberry Tower offers a variety of picturesque areas for dancing and entertainment. Whether the celebrations are focused in one main space or move between indoor and outdoor areas depending on the season, the venue adapts well to different styles of party. With the right balance of sound and lighting, the atmosphere can shift from refined and elegant to lively and energetic, encouraging guests to fully embrace the dance floor. Having DJed weddings here as Lee Live: Wedding DJ, I’ve found that guests tend to stay engaged and relaxed well into the night.

Accommodation on site means couples and guests can enjoy the celebrations without the pressure of late-night travel. After dancing, guests can retire to one of Carberry Tower’s comfortable and characterful rooms, rounding off the day in peaceful surroundings. This sense of escape — being able to celebrate, stay over, and wake up within the same estate — is a big part of Carberry Tower’s appeal.



For couples looking for a romantic estate wedding venue with beautiful grounds, a unique glass-fronted chapel and flexible celebration spaces, Carberry Tower is an excellent choice. Its blend of history, tranquillity and understated elegance makes it a venue where meaningful moments, great music and lasting memories come together naturally.
