Once upon a time...


Allison & Benton

Dundas Castle


This is the wedding story of Allison and Benton. And it is a special one. As soon as we heard about the celebration these two had planned with family and friends (most of who were travelling from the States) we were hooked.

Allison’s best friend, her Grandmother Ebe, travelled to Scotland for the first time ever. Benton’s bestman was his father Steve.

The whole wedding was one big party, fuelled by love and so many cracking personalities. And the fairytale that Michelle told was simply perfect. Of course it had to end happily ever after.

Mr and Mrs Jones you two are all set for a marriage full of adventures, love and happiness… and the best cheer squad encouraging you all the way.

Here’s a glimpse of your amazing day.

Big Blue Sky Love,

N & A xxx

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.
