Real Life Wedding: Barnbougle Castle
For anyone who’s in the know Barnbougle Castle weddings are more than a little bit special. It’s one of those Castles that is hidden in plain site – right on the banks of the Forth, just outside Edinburgh.
Aimee and Michael’s wedding was the perfect blend of romantic chill (think Scottish country castle meets Ibiza vibes – special mention to Gus on the decks)
From the minute Aimee arrived at the Castle with her Dad, in his classic red Morgan, the scene was set for an epic day. One of Michael’s highlights was seeing Aimee glide down the aisle. Kathleen Hood then led the ceremony sharing this pair’s love story, including mention of the 114,00 or so WhatsApp messages exchanged. Their ceremony was topped off by an incredible group sing of You & Me by the Wannabies ably accompanied by some moves on the maracas. It was impossible not to join in.
The weather was a surprise guest, allowing family and friends to sip bubbles outside the Castle, with the wise prepared with sunnies. The beach at Barnbougle Castle (yes it has its own beach too) was the perfect spot for evening cocktails and a few extra photographs.
Thank you Aimee and Michael for letting us tell this next chapter of your love story. We hope you both continue to smile as much as you did on your wedding day. Don’t ever grow up (either of you) and remember that you chose each other.
Excited to catch-up soon and share your full collection.
#BigBlueSkyLove,
Alie & Niels xx

Real Life Wedding: Drumtochty Castle
Drumtochty Castle weddings in autumn are simply magical. Andrea and Mike planned theirs to perfection – with the sage greens and golds and oranges of the flowers creating a warmth within the castle as well as outwith.
Getting to know these two as been a lot of fun. They make a top team and have a similar wonderful sense of humour. Highlights from their day include Andrea’s walk down the aisle, the emotional readings, the quaich ceremony (led by Uncle John), the speeches (Andrea’s killer line announcing “Mike I have made you a better person” had the room in stitches). And of course the most brilliant first dance.
Real Life Wedding: Mansfield Traquair
Laura and Calum’s wedding was always going to be a day filled with smiles a-plenty and the kind of party atmosphere that fills Mansfield to its rooftops. It was such a privilege to photograph this wedding as it feels like we’ve known Laura forever and meeting Calum and little Rae has been a delight.
Words these two would use to sum up their wedding are sentimental, sincere and silly… it was a day jam-packed with friends, family, fun and a wee dram or two of Fluffylump.
Real Life Wedding: Royal College of Physicians
The Royal College of Physicians is a little piece of wedding magic right in the heart of Edinburgh City Centre. For Isla and Patrick it was nothing short of perfect.
It’s a known fact that they are besotted with each other. In the best kind of way which means they look out for each other and take the time to check-in (even on the wedding morning) But also they include all of their family and friends which makes everyone love them more Their vows were the most beautiful vows we have ever heard, but then they are both exceptionally gifted with words so we should have expected nothing less.
