Extraordinarily perfect
Nic & Oli
Real Life Wedding: Hopetoun House
Hopetoun House is magical pretty much most days. But the day of Nic and Oli’s wedding it seemed to have an extra layer of something. Perhaps it was the weather (impeccably behaved for once), or the sweet sound of laughter on the breeze, or just the general vibe of all things extraordinarily perfect…
Getting to know this pair has been a delight. From chatting all things wedding (and pretty much anything else any between) we feel like we’ve known them for ages. When we asked their family what they loved most their answers followed a theme – relaxed, fun who care lots about their family and friends.
Nic and Oli we’re also big fans of yours. Photographing your wedding was a day we were so excited about and it was even more of a treat that we could have imagined. We have so many highlights. From your aisle walk (emotional and sublime all at once), your ceremony and exploring Hopetoun with you. We love that one of your favourite moments was having your photos taken on the stairs post wedding ceremony. And of course taking a trip up Lime Avenue (who knew – there are even Lime Trees 🤣)
Thank you for letting us be your wedding day storytellers. Here’s some post honeymoon joy for you. Soo excited to catch-up and all your collection…. and start planning your wedding album.
#BigBlueSkyLove,
Alie & Niels xx

Hopetoun House Weddings
Hopetoun House is one of those take-your-breath-away venues. We challenge anyone not to drive up that driveway and feel more than a little bit in awe. And if you’re on your way to a party there then be prepared to be wined and dined and thoroughly ensconced in so much Scottish history you’ll feel a little bit more intelligent just being there.
We have been privileged to photograph one or two weddings and events there over the years. So if you want to see more take a peak at our Goosebump List

Real Life Wedding: Dundas Castle
Dundas Castle was dressed to impress for Sukanya and Mark’s wedding. But even more than that this pair brought the party. Their family and friends were genuine, kind and absolutely hilarious. From impromptu karaoke to dancing during the drinks reception, everyone threw themselves into the celebration.
Real Life Wedding: Dundas Castle
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!
Real Life Wedding: The Balmoral Hotel, Edinburgh
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.
