A warm welcome awaits you in the Border town of Galashiels
Galashiels, a bustling, central Border's town, is graced by beautiful gardens which adjoin the High Street.
With an illustrious history in the textile industry, Galashiels, amongst many of the Border towns, has an equally outstanding reputation in the challenging sport of rugby.
There are many lovely places to visit, both within the town itself and in the surrounding area. Old Gala House, a short walk from the Registration Office, is an ancient Laird's house dating back to the 16th Century. It is set in beautiful and secluded gardens, complete with fountain and small waterfall with an attractive little bridge from which to view the beautiful flower borders.
The Registration Office is housed in the Library Building, in Lawyers' Brae, on the very edge of the main thoroughfare entering the town.
The Marriage Room, within the Registration Office, can comfortably seat about 20 guests.
