Netherbyres House | Eyemouth

Latest goings-on

Jill & Greg

Jill & Greg had originally planned to get married in Mallorca, but a global pandemic and a couple of kids later, they instead chose Netherbyres as their destination to tie the knot. And the Costa del Scottish Borders definitely didn’t disappoint. It was a scorcher! Lauren and Louisina from Days of Dahlia created the most […]

Jo & Ian

After rescheduling their wedding three times, Jo & Ian decided to keep things super small with an intimate ceremony for just 16 guests back in June. The pouring rain may have spoiled their plans for an outdoor ceremony, but it definitely didn’t put a dampener on the day. Jo is a designer, and her design […]

Mixing up traditions

As you may have realised by now, we’re not all that traditional here at Netherbyres. We love it when our couples suggest doing something a little bit different, from jugs of margs on the tables instead of wine, to having all day grazing from street food vans rather than a sit down meal. So here’s […]

Ailie & Nick

Beyond level 0 – we made it!!! Although there’s still some way to go, we’re so excited to finally get back to some sort of wedding normality. And what better way to celebrate than with some photos of Ailie & Nick’s incredible wedding. It started with an elegant ceremony in the Grand Hall with Ailie […]

Deneka & Jamie

Well, this one was pretty special. Deneka & Jamie were the first couple ever to book their wedding with us. They came to view the house on a dreary winter’s day back in early 2019, when we were about two days into the refurbishment. The place looked nothing like it does now. There were brown […]

Grand Hall Gallery

The thing about having a big house is that there’s lots of walls to fill. And being big fans of abstract art ourselves, we really wanted to fill them with vibrant and contemporary works from Scottish Artists. So when we came across Lynsey Scott’s incredible art on Instagram, we slid straight into her DMs to […]

Bojangles Bar

As soon as we saw the Summer House the first time we visited Netherbyres, we knew it would make the perfect outdoor bar. So we can’t wait to finally be knocking up some Spritz in it this summer. Being nearly 100 years old, it needed a bit of work first. We started on the outside […]

An intimate ceremony

Adele & Grant decided to go ahead with their intimate ceremony with only two witnesses in March as it was a special date for them both being the anniversary of when they first got together, and having already rescheduled their wedding a number of times, they were ready to finally say ‘hell yes’. There may […]

Blurring Lines

When we’re not busy doing weddings, we often rent the house out as a location for photoshoots. And we were very excited when our friends at Crew Network got in touch about hosting a shoot for the March issue of GQ Portugal. This shoot was right up our street. Not only did we get to […]

An outdoor ceremony

Alison & Marc got married in September and were lucky enough to get the last of the Scottish summer sun for their small wedding, so they opted to have a mask-free outdoor ceremony, surrounded by their closest friends and family. All photography by Strad Photography. Flowers by Occasions Eyemouth. Alison arrived with her Dad to […]

Stu & Al’s micro wedding

In November, we were thrilled to host the wedding of our friends Stuart and Alasdair. They had suffered the curse of the 2020 wedding, having originally planned to have their big day in London in May 2020. After attempting to reschedule several times, they finally decided to go ahead with an intimate Scottish micro-wedding. And […]

A brief history

We’re often asked about the history of the house and what it used to be. So here’s the story of when it was built, and how it became what it is today. The Craw family Netherbyres estate was originally owned by the Craw family for 250 years. William Craw, who had a passion for mathematics, […]

Best True Crime podcasts

We mentioned in the blog about us that you can often find me listening to true crime podcasts. Well, that’s a bit of an understatement. I listen to them all the time… when I’m decorating, when I’m driving, I even go to sleep listening to them (yes, Mike thinks it’s weird too). I’m constantly Googling […]

Picking your ceremony

Not sure where to start when it comes choosing the ceremony for your big day? Scottish law allows couples to marry anywhere, even outdoors, as long as the ceremony is conducted by a religious official, registrar or a non-religious Humanist Society Scotland celebrant. So here’s a guide to the different options available for your nuptials at Netherbyres. Humanist So I know […]

Our interiors

If you’ve read our blog about the history of the house, you’ll know that prior to becoming a wedding venue, Netherbyres House was a home for retired gardeners. So as you can imagine, it needed a little bit of updating before we could start welcoming our couples through the door. We’ve always loved bold interior […]

Our branding

If you’ve read the post About us, then you’ll know Mike’s background is in graphic design. So here’s the story of how our branding came about… Designing a brand for a client? Easy, my bread and butter. Designing one for my own business? Hard, really hard. I put myself under a lot of pressure to […]

A furry film-shoot

A few people have suggested to us that Netherbyres would be a great location for TV and Film productions. And it just so happens that our friends at Tanami and Leith were in need of a location for a recent shoot for one of their clients. Which of our rooms would they choose? The stunning […]

About us

We’re Sarah & Mike (often referred to simply as S&M). When we were looking for our own wedding venue back in 2015, we were surprised by the lack of options available if you wanted to do something a little different, that weren’t already booked up two years in advance! We were lucky enough to find […]

Our first wedding

Katie and Steven were the first lucky couple to get married at Netherbyres House. They only got engaged on Christmas eve, so we had just a couple of months to plan the big day in February. Not to mention we’d just started the refurb, but who can say no to their big sister! It was […]

Our cocktails

One of the best parts about having your own venue is coming up with the food and drink menus, and we had a lot of fun evenings in the bar sampling many many cocktails to come up with our final list. We wanted a mix of the traditional classics and some that you might not […]
