Real Life Scottish wedding: Prestonfield House Hotel, Edinburgh


Nicola & Ian

Glorious Edinburgh outdoor garden wedding


To describe Nic and Ian’s glorious garden wedding would any many ways be like describing the perfect day: a chilled start to the morning; spot of make-up for the girls (with tea and fresh scones thrown in) then get a little bit glam ready for a super meaningful and personal wedding ceremony. This was a genuinely happy day filled with family, fun and the most perfectly-timed barks from Holly at key moments.

They say never work with children and animals. We say work with both – regularly – as they both make the party happen.

Highlights for these two (and us) were wandering off to do photos in the grounds of Prestonfield House and the speeches which even featured a real live Dr Who. Yes – for real. Inspired!
The sun shone throughout bringing the summer vibes (accompanied by Chris on the piano)  all the way.

This was a wedding we wouldn’t have wanted to miss and we’re so glad we didn’t have to. Thank you Nicola and Ian.

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?
