One magical autumn day

Real Life Wedding: Drumsheugh Gardens and Noto, Edinburgh

Cori and Ian’s wedding was  magical . From their ceremony (a private garden in the heart of Edinburgh’s new town)  to their party (dinner at their favourite restaurant Noto with their closest family and friends) it was a dream.

Add to that a moment set aside for their firstlook and quality time spent in the gardens sipping champagne, hanging out with their favourites and even walking with their daughter little P and first born four legged Finn.

I will never stop saying every wedding is unique and special. They 100% are. Often it’s the details I remember: butterflies joining us for bridal prep, the scent of  apple hairspray, the pre-aisle giggles and arm squeezes, snippets of speeches… and of course music.

Cori and Ian’s wedding is one I will always remember with so much clarity and detail. Because it was beautiful. But also because Cori is someone I get to call friend. And now I can also say Ian is too. Because these two are a team. An incredible and unique team.

Thank you both for letting us tell your wedding story.  It was a privilege and a huge delight. Here are (some) of the magical details I remember from your day:

• The view from the room where Cori got ready – sitting above Edinburgh as she glowed in the afternoon sun
• The sound of Cori’s dress as she made her way to meet Ian for the first time as a bride
• The way Ian looks at Cori (also the way Cori looks at Ian) – love and respect in equal measure
• Little P’s smiles as she was held by both her parents
• The geese flying overhead during their ceremony.
• Kat and Harry’s unwavering dedication to making your garden party exceptional (even cleaning up a random dog’s calling card)
• The extra guest at the wedding
• The incredible smell as soon as the doors of Noto opened
• The warmth and sound of chatter and laughter as evening became night

See you soon you two fabulous humans.
