Claire & Nicholas’ Wedding, The Roxburghe Hotel, Kelso, Part 2



Wow! Following the energetic morning, Claire and Nicholas shed the lycra and had themselves a wedding. And what a wedding it was…

 

The ceremony was filled with so many personal touches and words straight from the heart. Although I think my favourite bit was when Claire realised that the wedding ring she’d chosen had been ‘upgraded’ by her husband-to-be to have one or two more diamonds… (and that was as he popped it on her finger!)

 

The thing about Claire and Nicholas is that they just love having fun and it’s totally infectious. And they totally love each other. And they totally love cake.

 

Here are some of our highlights from your truly rocking wedding day.

 

Enjoy! Really looking forward to catching-up soon.

 

This time, we’re doing the cake!

P.S. How gorgeous is Claire’s dress? The fabulously talented Mette at Freja Designer Dressmaking did a little bit of tweaking here and there helping to create Claire’s stunning look.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Love Claire’s realisation that her wedding ring has a few more sparkles on than the one she thought she was getting. Nicholas – you did indeed buy diamonds!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Claire is known for being something of a speed-demon so when they mentioned getting a shot with the golf buggies…. well it just had to be done!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We love doing evening shoots with our brides and grooms – especially when the evening light is so gorgeous. But space-hopping into the sunset? Now that’s a first for us. It was soo much fun and look at the cracking shots… Mr and Mrs Beckett-Hunt you just make us smile. You two are ace!

Real Life Wedding: Drumtochty Castle


01 November 2025

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


18 October 2025

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


04 October 2025

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.
