Ruthin Castle: Where History Meets Beauty
A Fairytale Wedding: Ieuan & Callum Say "I Do" at Ruthin Castle.
Nestled in the heart of the Welsh countryside, surrounded by rolling hills and ancient woodlands, Ruthin Castle stood proudly as the breathtaking backdrop for Ieuan and Callum’s unforgettable wedding day. Steeped in history and wrapped in timeless charm, this magnificent venue in North Wales (yes, despite the common mix-up, Ruthin is a northern gem!) offered the perfect blend of romance, heritage, and natural beauty for the couple’s celebration.
A Wedding Fit For Kings
Ieuan and Callum were quite literally treated as royalty for the day getting to enjoy a throne as a seat during the reception, speeches and even the evening reception! Ieuan and Callum beckoned the oppurtunity to be kings for the day. They even got to spend the night in the same suite King Charles stays in when he visits Wales!
The love shared between Ieuan and Callum was palpable, not only in their smiles but in the laughter of friends, the tears of family, and the way everyone danced long into the night. Ruthin Castle didn’t just host a wedding that day—it witnessed the beginning of a new chapter, a new history being written.
My highlight of the day was the giant marshmallows handed out during the evening reception that everyone toasted on the bonfire!

A View Worth a Thousand Words
As the ceremony gave way to celebration, guests were treated to one of the castle's greatest treasures: the view. From the terraces and windows of Ruthin Castle, the sweeping vistas of the Clwydian Range stretched endlessly into the horizon. Soft green hills rolled gently beneath a blue April sky, dotted with sheep and lined with dry-stone walls—a scene straight out of a Welsh postcard.
The couple stole a quiet moment together as the sun dipped lower, bathing the landscape in golden light. It was a view to remember, and one that seemed to echo the warmth and joy of the entire day.
