Scotland Wedding: Abode Hotel & National Piping Centre, Glasgow

As weddings go, this was quite possibly the wettest one I've ever experienced. But that didn't dampen spirits. With a 'let's get out there' attitude, I hit the streets of the Merchant City in Glasgow with Christine and Pally armed only with a couple of umbrellas and some sheer determination!

Glasgow is such an urban oasis with so many exciting parts to it, I could literally spend an entire week taking photos there. And what better way to start this wedding than at Abode Glasgow with its ceramic tiles and old fashioned lift, it was like stepping into the 50s, what an amazing space with stunning light, perfect for hair and make up to transform Christine into a bride. Linda from Linda Arbuckle MUA and Annette from Frizz Free Hair did a fantastic job. Christine brought her monkeys all the way from Canada to guard the rings, safe to say they did a good job too. And the talented Amanda from The Floral Design Boutique created Christine's colourful bouquet.

Time to let the pictures speak for themselves, here is a sneak peek for you all to enjoy!

Scotland Wedding: Gleddoch House Hotel, Langbank

I don't know how we managed to dodge the (extremely heavy) showers, but we did. We even got our own chauffeur to drive us in a golf buggy to take us wherever we wanted to go, awesome! So much fun exploring the grounds of Gleddoch House Hotel with Lorna and Billy who just took the whole day in their stride.

Here is a small sneak peek for you all to enjoy.

Scotland Wedding: Doune Castle & Killearn Village Hall

A lovely morning spent at Will and Natalie's beautiful converted stables home meant I was spoiled for choice when taking photos of the dress, shoes and the amazing flowers by Endrick Blooms. Great to arrive to see Will's handy work on their VW T5 camper van too! Then the showers came and we had a dramatic entrance to Doune Castle as the rain poured down from above. But that rain was short-lived and we were able to get outside into the grounds of this amazing castle. And not knowing the area that well, I was delighted when they suggested stopping at a little bridge where you can see the castle in the background.

Fantastic to work alongside Three Sisters Bake again at their Killearn Village Hall venue and that cake! Oh and a special mention has to go to Nick & Jack from The Veritable Ceilidh Club as they performed during the ceremony. Particular highlights were Stand By Me and then Falling Slowly during the signing. Amazing stuff!

So sit back, relax and enjoy this little sneak peek from another fabulous wedding day.

Rachel & James, Crutherland House Hotel, Glasgow

What can I say about Rachel and James' wedding? Well, put it this way, we dodged the showers! I've no idea how, but we did. I'm so lucky when it comes to the weather. Anyway, a lovely day was had with lots of happiness and loads of nice conversations with all sorts of people, I really enjoy that aspect to a wedding. They were married at St Mark's Church in East Kilbride before heading off for much awesomeness at the MacDonald Crutherland House Hotel. It's surrounded by trees and if you don't know me by now, I like to go on little adventures with my couples!

So good to work alongside David from Walnut Wasp who filmed it all. And together we hatched a plan to exploit that lovely warm evening sun which came and went in a flash, but my goodness was it worth it!

So without further ado, here is a little sneak peek from Rachel and James' day for you all to enjoy.

Scotland Wedding, Kirknewton Stables

A relaxed and fun filled wedding day in the beautiful setting that is Kirknewton Stables. Kirsten and Paul put so much effort into the little details resulting in what you see below. And hats off to Flossy and Dossy who made the dress and also Gary Moore Catering Services who provided an awesome hog roast and stunning naked wedding cake.
