To Edinburgh, with love

Real Life Wedding: The Balmoral Hotel


Edinburgh City Chambers, followed by Luckenbooths and then The Balmoral Hotel, proved a perfect trio for a winter Edinburgh city centre wedding.

Rachel and Mark travelled with friends and family to Edinburgh for their celebrations. From beginning to end these two could not take hugest grins off their faces. And as fabulous as they looked, mention has to be made of how cute their little people were.

Thank you for letting us tell your wedding story Mr and Mrs Sweeney. It was a day filled with love, laughter and banter by the bucketload.

Enjoy some highlights of a day that was filled with them.

#BigBlueSkyLove,

Alie & Niels xx

Vibrant, energetic and unforgettable…. all words that perfectly sum up Tasmin and David’s Dundas Castle wedding. This pair literally throw themselves into life and their wedding day was exactly the same. We love how they did things their way – including having flower grannies over flower girls. Genius!

The Balmoral Hotel’s afternoon teas are legendary, so what better way to celebrate your wedding than with an iconic afternoon tea with all your guests? Especially when everyone’s flown in from North America. Nora and Chris took it a step further and involved their guests in conducting the ceremony. Their guests acted as celebrant. It was perfect and so intimate and one or two tears were shed along the way.
