Carolyn & Toby’s Wedding, Dundas Castle, South Queensferry
And so, we’ve arrived at the final Blue Sky wedding of 2011. What a great end to a fantastic year…
The story of Carolyn and Toby is so romantic… from first meeting in Rome outside a metro station to getting married in a fairytale Scottish Castle.
Their day was packed full of beautiful personal touches and filled with lots of lovely music by friends and family. Even the Wheelbase vehicle played it’s part! (although as pointed out in the speeches, if Toby had his way, the wedding theme would have included the green and black colour scheme!)
We love how chilled you both were about the unpredictable Scottish climate. The tag “won’t let it rain on my parade” on Carolyn’s Weddingtons summed up your attitude perfectly.
We hope you two had a fantastic honeymoon in Mauritius – we had serious honeymoon-envy!
Thank you for inviting us to be a part of your wedding. Hope this post brings back lots of memories from your awesome day. Enjoy!
Here’s to an amazing 2012 for you Mr and Mrs D…

Real Life Wedding: Melville Castle
Melville Castle has always had a special place in our hearts as it’s one of the first castles we ever photographed a wedding at. Combine that with one of the most incredible couples and you have the stuff of unstoppable wedding magic. Megan and Jonathan’s story is one of long-lasting friendship followed by falling in love. As they’ve grown up together they are a pair steeped in love and support for each other and that is so evident to anyone who knows them.
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.
