History was made this weekend…
900th anniversary of @stgileshighkirk marked the first same sex marriage during a significant @prideedinburgh for our wonderful couple David & Arnaud celebrating their love in the spiritual presence of God, so important to both of them, something they couldn’t do in their homeland in France.
This is why our Grooms cared so much to celebrate their special event in a truly Scottish way as a thank you to the land that gave them this opportunity 🌈
When we first met on Zoom in November 2023 I knew just how much this meant to them and so we embarked on a journey to design a schedule of 3 events, showcasing the best of what Scotland has got to offer for their international crowd of guests.
On the first night we started with a welcome reception at @theneighbourhood.bruntsfield followed by a surprise secret drag event at @planetbarandkitchen
On Friday our couple pronounced their love in front of God at the capital’s infamous St Giles’ Cathedral. Followed by a Photoshoot on Calton Hill and reception at @virginhotelsedi -full of Ceilidh dancing from @grouseceilidhband into the little hours.
On Saturday @zakmoulaouiguery with @invisiblecitiestours led a city tour for our guests followed by exclusive takeover of @scotlandshop for a truly Scottish shopping experience and a real Fish & Chips extravaganza at @bertiesfishandchips including a whisky tasting from @88cask
Finally, our Grooms have decided to donate their wedding flowers to create 64 bouquets for Women’s Aid with the help of @zakmoulaouiguery and @invisibleedinburgh.
THEME SONG - “Can’t Help Falling in Love” by Perfume Genius our couple’s choice for their first dance 🕺
