The 19th-century North Rotunda in Glasgow has created a space for weddings, civil partnerships, and other celebrations, which can accommodate up to 240 guests, following an extensive refurbishment.
The building, which dates back to 1890, overlooks the Finnieston Crane.
Its new "The Finnieston Room", a circular space on the second floor of the building, will have the capacity to accommodate up to 140 seated guests or 240 people for a standing reception.
The area can be divided into smaller spaces, with an independent entrance.
The room features its own private bar, dancefloor, and high-tech audio-visual equipment.
The culinary team at the North Rotunda plans to tailor wedding menus to customer preferences.
The North Rotunda, which has undergone a major transformationo amid the pandemic as it has adapted to social distancing requirements, is also home to Cranside Kitchen, an outdoor and indoor dining, drinking, and entertainment venue.
From The Finnieston Room, a staircase leads to "The Dome" on the third floor, which offers a "glass see-through view" of the new circular events space.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
