We had a fantastic evening chez Marlin's Wynd on Saturday. Your venue is simply stunning, and the f&b was delicious. No mean feat delivering 60 odd meals simultaneously, but to have them all as tasty as they were takes real skill. And as for the Negronis... they definitely worked! You have a wonderful team; our grateful thanks to everyone, but especially to Ewan who was as attentive and polite as he was patient; (in spite of being tried!) Please forward our heartfelt gratitude. It really is an Unusual Venue and ticks boxes that no other venue I know in Edinburgh can tick. I am confident I shall contact you in the New Year to discuss taking it myself in 2024 for a party.

Everyone had a lovely time. The meal was excellent and commented on by lots of people. The quality of the food was amazing. The service at the meal by the staff was the best I’ve ever had at a wedding.
Guests also loved the venue and the atmosphere it created for the wedding ceremony.
You also did a marvellous job of organising everything and making sure it all ran smoothly.
Thank you again for making the day a special one to remember. As the mother of the bride I couldn’t believe how stress free I was !! This was down to you and your team.
Kind regards

We had a wonderful day and everything was just perfect for us. Obviously apart from the rain but that didn't bother anyone once we were in the venue. It even dried up for us later on so we got some outside photos on the royal mile.
Everyone has been commenting on how beautiful the venue was "very romantic"! I would also like you to pass on our thanks to the chefs on the day as the food was amazing!
I have already recommended you to a friend who has now booked her wedding at the Caves for February 2018.
Thanks for all your help with the planning.

Dear Sir and Ma’am,
Recently we have had a wedding reception held at Marlins Wynd in Edinburgh and would like to pass on my compliments.
We were contacted in good time by our wedding coordinator, Ailidh, who efficiently managed our concerns, suppliers and requests even though we were not able to meet face to face until two days before the event.
On the day the staff were helpful and very competent in setting up and took our last minute suggestions in their stride as well as making the venue beautiful.
At all time the staff were courteous, professional, friendly and very hardworking. The food was excellent, the service quick, polite and efficient and the whole day was a resounding success.
Please pass on our thanks to your staff and thank them for their time and effort.

Dear Lisa
Just want to say thank you for hosting our student conference a week past Friday. The venue looked amazing, the food was delicious and your staff on the day were excellent. The AV guys were also great so all in all a great success.
On another note, can you please advise how many you can take for a drinks reception in each of your three venues. Also confirm whether they are all without disabled access.
Thanks for all your support.
Kind regards

We had such a fabulous day and can't thank you and the rest of the staff at Marlins Wynd enough for looking after us all so well. It truly was a wonderful day in such a wonderful setting. So many of our guests said it to us how fantastic a setting it was. Everything went to plan and we enjoyed every minute until we got too tired to stand and to speak so we left everyone else to it about 10.30pm! Thanks from both of us to you for all your hard work and for your kind words of support along the way.
Warmest wishes to you all for the future.

Just wanted to say a huge thanks for the help with organising our reception.
Everything about the venue exceeded our expectations in terms of setting, food, facilities etc. Lynn and I loved it, we had a blast and as you might imagine all of the foreign contingent loved the Scottish side of it all and even those used to Scottish weddings absolutely loved everything about it.
If you could also extend a huge thank you to all the staff involved, it was all very professionally run.
Hopefully the place wasn't too much of a mess the next day!

When I first viewed Marlin's Wynd I knew it was the venue for us. Absolutely stunning and atmospheric! Everyone I spoke to during the planning and run up to our big day was friendly and helpful but big thanks to the Wedding Team who answered my almost daily questions with unendless patience!
On the big day itself the venue looked spectacular. Food was gorgeous and table setting looked gorgeous. The staff were brilliant especially the Front of House Manager who looked after us right up to the very end of the evening when our taxi failed to show up, phoning and stopping taxis on the street for us!
We honestly had the best day, and all our guests enjoyed themselves also. Wish we could do it all again!

I would just like to thank all of your team, especially those involved in our evening celebration, for such an amazing event put on for our wedding reception held in Marlins Wynd. We have all been impressed from initial set up to the final event and your professionalism and courtesy is astounding.
We would especially like to mention the Front of House Manager who appeared to go over and above his duty in ensuring that our evening was everything we wanted it to be. He personally made sure that we were happy with the venue set up and ensured that all of our guests were catered for and comfortable. He did not appear to rest at all and was always courteous and pleasant and an absolute joy to have around.
The food was also of a very high standard and was delicious.
Overall we were extremely happy with your venue and service and our wedding day went without a hitch and will be memorable for a long time to come.

Chris, Pierre and Alex (minus his long locks) and the rest of the team, did you proud; there were clear food plates (I even think they were scraped clean!) and the venue was commented on as being completely magical by our friends.
Thanks again,

I can’t thank you enough for all the care and attention you gave to Megan and Fergus’s amazing wedding on Saturday! The Wedding Teams advice and guidance through the planning process was very much appreciated as was their patience with all the (very many!) queries about the food, all handled with good humour and a smile – just brilliant! The chef produced an absolutely superb Wedding breakfast for everyone including vegetarian, gluten free, nut free, dairy free, and lactose free items which met all our needs – no small task I’m sure. The waiting staff and bar staff were excellent, courteous, helpful and friendly. The venue itself was fantastic, just what the bride and groom wanted for the Ceremony, the Wedding breakfast and the Party – an extraordinary, romantic venue beautifully lit and oozing with history! Thank you again to everyone concerned in making it such a wonderful and memorable occasion. With our very best wishes to all at the Caves, and special thanks to the brilliant Wedding Team

Thank you so much for everything. After all the obstacles and stresses we had our perfect wedding day. Everything ran smoothly, lots of people commented on how great the food was. The attention of the waiting staff was fantastic, we never had to look for anyone. And every time I was looking for something, my little jacket, or my husband, someone seemed to just be there, with my jacket, or pointing out where Dav was. Honestly, we had the most fabulous perfect day, so thank you very much for all your hard work. I even got to have a wee dance, it felt like a real party. Can't believe we finally did it, with all your professional help.

A huge thank you to all of the team who helped make Saturday’s event at Marlins Wynd a really good party.
Kirsty’s phone was alive with messages on Sunday morning, and I get the impression that all our guests had a really great time. The food was good, the band were lovely people and clearly enjoying themselves, and Chris and his team were delightful too. Bacon sandwiches at midnight was the best suggestion ever ... they simply vanished in minutes !
Please pass on our thanks to everyone who was involved.

We meant to follow up after the party a couple of weeks ago to say the 21st party the girls had at Marlyn’s Wynd on 20 February went really well.
We all had a great time and so did all the guests.
Your staff were really helpful, and all the guests both young and old were very impressed with the venue which was perfect for the occasion. The ceilidh band were also very happy with the lay out and the acoustics and the space for dancing was perfect. It was a lovely evening we will remember for a long time.
Thanks again, we will certainly be recommending it as a venue to our friends if they are looking

Hi Caroline and all the staff from Marlin's Wynd on Saturday.
Daniel and I are so very happy with how everything went. Your ability to be there when we needed you and solve last minute hiccups (like the lack of piper....) with ease and without any interruption made our day magical.
Robb in particular took control of everything and made us feel very relaxed and looked after throughout the day.
I wish we could do it all again!
Thanks!
