Hannah & Ross’ Wedding, The Priory Church, followed by Orocco Pier, South Queensferry
Hannah and Ross planned a cosy intimate winter wedding and it was just wonderful, complete with picture-perfect white snow flurries throughout their day.
We admired the determination of your guests who battled the snow to be at their wedding, (even friends all the way from Australia!). The wedding car for Hannah and Ross was particularly special – as you’ll see it was a RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) Land Rover for whom Ross is a fundraising manager. It was the ideal way to travel…
Serious respect goes to Hannah and Ross for braving the weather (you have just no idea how cold it was on the pier in South Queensferry – brrrrr!) We loved how much fun you two were on your wedding day. You just made us smile (and laugh) lots. Loved it!
So many memories stand out for us – from the girls Vivienne Westwood shoes, Ross’ fab kilt from 21st Century Kilts, the nautical knots on the tables and the lush idea of pairing different wines with each course of dinner – such a special thing to spoil your guests with. And the stories about Ross told during the speeches?! They can’t possibly be true…!
We’ll catch up really soon (this time, hopefully without a flake of snow in sight!)

PS – we look forward to showing the cover shot of the RNLI magazine when you’re in!
Just how cool are Hannah’s bridesmaid’s shoes…?
The minister of the Priory Church, Rev Terry Harkin is a wonderful, very genuine and funny man who put everyone at ease throughout Hannah and Ross’ wedding ceremony.
Ok there’s cold and there’s cold… and this was absolutely baltic! Serious respect Hannah & Ross for braving this walk. Not sure we quite realised how compacted the ice was under all that new fallen snow?!?
This is literally a two-shot take before heading back to the Land Rover!
The team at Orocco Pier paired a different wine with each course of the wedding breakfast; the finishing touch to a fab meal.

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.
