Lauren & Colin’s Wedding, Dalhousie Castle, by Edinburgh
And now we come to the last Blue Sky wedding of 2010… and what a fab end to the year…
Do you ever speak to someone for the first time and immediately get a sense for who they are? The first time I spoke to Lauren it felt as though she was just down the road, rather than across the globe. Lauren is such a creative and her eye for style was so evident throughout their wedding. Style in a funky, under-stated and totally hits-the-mark way. Lauren and Colin had a vintage travel theme and it worked perfectly at Dalhousie Castle.
When we received their wedding invitation we both squealed with delight. It set the scene for a really special wedding, with guests travelling from all corners of the world. The atmosphere was so chilled and Lauren and Colin had even prepared a quiz for their guests during the champagne reception. That’s how much attention-to-detail these two put into their day.
Thanks guys for letting us join you. You two were so much fun to photograph and so relaxed together. We loved all your detailing – from your flight itinerary as your order of service through to your in-flight meal for your wedding breakfast. And to top it all, your different cakes for each table for your guests to delve into for desert.
Enjoy some highlights from your Scottish wedding. We hope the rest of your travels were lots of fun and that NYC was awesome…
Speak soon,
A&N
The speeches were great. Very funny and a little emotional and all very much from the heart…

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.
