Sarah & James
Real Life Wedding: The Intercontinental George Hotel
You know you’ve arrived in Edinburgh when you step foot through the Edinburgh Intercontinental Hotel (otherwise known as the George) For Sarah and James this was the perfect venue for their wedding. We were warned that their guests knew how to party and they absolutely did. Just look at that packed dance floor.
There were so many highlights: from their ceremony with a quaich filled with Mojitos (who says you have to have whisky?), a magical and extensive confetti line, exploring the gardens on Queen street and of course the dancing.
Special mention also has to go to the weather (yes it is always that warm in Scotland in September ????).
The three words that come to mind when Sarah and James think of their wedding day are euphoric, real and bubbly. To be honest we think those words could apply to this pair themselves… spend any time with them and you’ll see what we mean.
Sarah and James we loved all the love and planning you put into your wedding day. You two are a fantastic team and we love your enthusiastic, down-to-earth approach to life. Something tells us your journey is going to be a fun one.
Here’s a taster. Looking forward to catching-up soon.

George Hotel Weddings
We challenge you to get more Edinburgh City Centre than the Intercontinental George Hotel (or simply the George as those in the know call it). Your guests will love the vibe. From the minute you walk through reception (think classic pillars and bespoke panelling) you’ll feel as though you’ve arrived. It’s the sort of hotel that is timelessness with a capital ‘T’, allowing history, luxury, and modernity to coexist in perfect harmony.
Ww love the ballroom, known as the Kings Hall, with its incredible cloud light in the centre – perfect for dancing underneath. And if you get the chance you need to check out the wrap around views from the roof terrace. You will not be disappointed.

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.
