Real Life Wedding: Dundas Castle


Dundas Castle is literally the perfect spot for a Christmas Wedding. As soon as you walk in the door you’re welcomed by the smells of winter: fires, wood and pine. And then you catch a glimpse of the Christmas tree and stockings by the fire and you just want to find a cosy corner and snuggle there for the rest of the day.

Those were the vibes of Steph and Gav’s wedding… combined with distinct overtones of party (Solo Sax anyone) and of course some festive treats. This pair met at a Burns’ Supper so Roddy the Piper delivering the Address to the Haggis was a must.

S&G thanks for letting us be part of your wedding world. From the first time we met you (and your gorgeous girls) we knew yours was going to be a special day. It’s so hard for us to pick highlights (from your ceremony overlooking grounds of the Castle to your dancing in the hall, and of course your incredible party at night – even the floor was bouncing  thanks to DJ Jonny… it was all epic)

We ‘re in awe of energy and love that you, your family and friends put into the day and how you two literally went with the flow. If you two keep doing that (which we’ve no doubt you will) we know your marriage is going to be just as fantastic and filled with many wonderful adventures.

Enjoy some highlights. Can’t wait to catch-up soon,

#BigBlueSkyLove,

Alie & Niels xx

Real Life Wedding: Portland Parish Church Troon, followed by the Lochgreen House Hotel


25 April 2025

Wedding days are always unique and special, but for us Kirsty and Andy’s holds a special place in our hearts… we’ve known Kirsty for what feels like forever and we knew this was going to be a day filled with so much love and heart. It was that and more so.. This pair and their family and friends had the best day. One of Kirsty (and her Dad’s) favourite moments was the aisle walk in the church. It’s one of those memories that will also stay with us forever. Talk about epic entrance – the goosebumps were real.

Real Life Wedding: Signet Library


14 December 2024

A Christmas wedding at the Signet Library is the stuff dreams are made of. Especially when Planet Flowers added their festive finesse, crafting tables bedecked with Christmas-clad candelabras, brilliant book baubles, and gilded tomes as table names. The table plan, piled high with oversized books and quills, was nothing short of storybook perfection.
