Marie & Matt’s Wedding, Edinburgh Castle, followed by The Scotsman Hotel



We remember the first time we met Marie and Matt all those months ago and their dreams for their Edinburgh wedding… we instantly knew it was going to be a cracking day and it was all that and more…We loved hearing about all their ideas throughout their planning. These two put so much thought and detail into their day to make sure that all their guests had a ball as they joined them for a weekend up in Edinburgh. And boy did they!

 

Marie and Matt chose a soft vintage theme to their day, holding their celebrations at the iconic Edinburgh Castle followed by the Scotsman Hotel, adding a good dose of Scottish-ness into their day. We loved all Marie’s vintage details, from her dress and accessories through to the girls shoes and the lace and bunting decorating the chairs and the Scotsman Hotel. And those handmade stitched name places – all made by bridesmaid Lucy – beautiful. We were even given our own – check out Facebook to see these. Thank guys – so thoughtful.

 

There were a few firsts on the day two… the first time we’ve ever had the Red Arrows do a fly past (just for Marie and Matt of course!), the first time these two became husband and wife – in fact the first time Matt became Marie’s wife – with a few giggles over that one… and the first time the new steps at the Scotsman steps were opened – just in time for Marie and Matt’s wedding.

 

Marie and Matt thank you for finding us. We were so delighted to be part of your wedding and have loved getting to know you two. You treated everyone to an amazing day and weekend too. Here’s some of our favourite photographs. Can’t wait to show you them all on your next Edinburgh jaunt. You two rock!

This was the moment when Marie was invited to take Matt as her new “wife” a slight faux pas on the by the registrar! Loved it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Scotsman Steps which join The Scotsman Hotel to Waverly Station and were just opened on the previous day – each of the 104 steps has been made from a different colour of marble and has been restored as part of a £250,000  restoration project. How fab do they look? We had to do some pictures of Marie and Matt on them…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At night, before their first dance, Marie popped on a stunning necklace and her hair done again. Soo gorgeous…

Real Life Wedding: Hopetoun House


25 May 2024

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…

Real Life Wedding: Dunglass Estate


06 April 2024

Alex and Molly are the kind of people who embrace life and all it throws at them. Including what we can only be described as the windiest wedding I think we’ve ever been at (think winds of 50 mph – enough to take out huge stone planters) And the result was a wedding day that was even more magical that anyone could have imagined.

Real Life Wedding: Drumtochty Castle


03 April 2024

Their spring wedding was beautiful in spite of the rain (think one of the wettest days ever). Actually it was a little more beautiful because of the rain. As family and friends dashed for cover under mutlicloured brollies there were smile, giggles and lot of togetherness. And what could be better than cosying up in Drumtochty Castle as the wood burners crackle?
