I've got two search engines so I wanted to get rid of the one on top. Does the above code get rid of both search engines?

This gets rid of the search box.

#branding #search {
display: none;
}

Replace the first bit of code I gave you with the following to center the logo.

#main-title {
background: url("http://ailablogdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2012/08/aila-white-logo.jpg") no-repeat scroll center top transparent;
height: 130px;
width: 100%;
}

Will do. How do I put the logo in the center? and can I get rid of that search thing on the right?

#main-title {
background: url("http://ailablogdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2012/08/aila-white-logo.jpg") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
height: 130px;
}

Also, go back to settings > general and add your site title back in there so that the search engines can see it and add the following, which will hide the title, but still leave it there for the search engines to find. They are fond of site titles and it helps with SEO.

#main-title #site-title {
display: block;
text-indent: -9999px;
}

#main-title #site-title a {
display: block;
height: 130px;
}

I'd like to replace the title on my blog with my logo http://ailablogdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2012/08/aila-white-logo.jpg on the Chateau theme. Any ideas how to go about doing that?
Many thanks
