The real love story of many plots, destinations and possible fate.

Justyna originally from Poland, met Andrew from Wisconsin, USA in Edinburgh back in 2017 and they now live in Berlin, but they brought their wedding to the place when their adventure all started 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

We learnt during Father of the Groom speech that a family friend in fact predicted back in 2010 that Andrew one day, would find his wife in a far destination of Edinburgh, Scotland and clearly she wasn’t wrong 🤩

It looks like it was all meant to be, and we were honoured to help J&A celebrate their love in style infusing both cultures and many fun activities.

Starting with a welcome reception for guests arriving internationally at @coldtownhouse filled with pizza, Prosecco and fabulous craft beers. It all was followed by an elegant, yet fun spin on a wedding reception at the iconic @rcpevenue

THEME SONG - “Tyle Słońca w całym mieście” (meaning: “There’s so much sunshine in this city”) from Anna Jantar, processional song for our Bride.

Massive well done to a team of absolute superstars who made this all come together so beautifully, including our very own colleague Linda:

REAL WEDDING STORY - Emma & Struan

OMG we had so much fun coordinating Emma & Struan’s wedding yesterday at GG’s Yard 🤩

When we first met in April on our initial Zoom call consultation I knew already back then how well we’d work together 💛 Our couple just oozed kindness, but most importantly love for one another 🥰 It was sweet and infectious 😍 I mean just look at the joy on the girls’ faces as the dance around like nobody is watching for photos in the evening 👯‍♀️

We arrived on Wednesday to help with the setup and finishing touches, and then got up bright and early on Thursday to get the day off to a good start 🤩

GG’s Yard looked absolutely stunning and we even got quite a bit of sun through the day too.

THEME SONG - “World of our own” from Westlife, our couple’s choice for a First Dance song.

Massive well done to a team of superstars who helped us deliver another beautiful wedding including my colleague Linda:

REAL WEDDING STORY - David & Arnaud

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 🕺

REAL WEDDING STORY - Sarah & Collin

The real love story of two beautiful souls and traditions - one from South Africa and the other from Texas, USA.

Starting with an informal welcome BBQ complimented with Lucas Ice Cream at Marine North Berwick on Friday, followed by a full day of elegant celebrations at Gosford House on Saturday. Magician, Highland Dancers, Lawn Games, Fireworks - you name it, we had it all to host the party of all parties!

When we met last year S&C wanted a truly elegant, yet fun celebration for their guests travelling from around the globe and oh boy did we achieve this 🤩

Gosford House set the scene and everything else just followed suit for a truly memorable wedding!

THEME SONG - “Lover” from Taylor Swift
- Sarah’s theme song for processional and start of the First Dance

Massive well done to my team of Linda and Kanishka who supported me this weekend and a portfolio of wedding superstars:

REAL WEDDING STORY - Lia & Konain

The real love story of two university sweethearts celebrating their families and friends in the most epic way 💛

Starting with traditional Mehndi celebration on Friday and followed by a wedding day extravaganza on Saturday! What a weekend and simply the sweetest and kindest people on earth - it was a joy to help Lia & Konain to celebrate their special moments😍

When we met around a year ago L&K wanted to treat their guests to a very special celebration, initially thinking they’d want a castle but very quickly realising this wasn’t their vibe, so I brought them to Rosebery Steading and they immediately fell in love with the place. After a few creative consultations we landed on a theme for both Mehndi full of rich and traditional oranges, reds and yellows. For Saturday L&K wanted to still celebrate the richness of reds but also include sage green, blush pinks and whites. Tables decorated with cut glass glassware, gold cutlery, rustic place mats, complimented with scatter rose petals in the runners - GORGEOUS! All finished with a sharing family style catering full of Asian influences - DELICIOUS doesn’t describe it well enough!

THEME SONG - “I Need My Girl” by The National
- Lia’s theme song for processional

REAL WEDDING - Mr & Mrs Love

Amanda1.jpg

I have recently been asked about the highlights of my career and one of those beautiful moments I often recall is the wedding of Amanda and Stuart in the winter of 2016!⁠⠀

I still remember to this day how excited Amanda and Stuart were at the prospect of their timeless and sophisticated winter fairy-tale wedding!⁠⠀

It was on the morning of their wedding during the final setup that I could fully appreciate Amanda's vision - see for yourself in the images from Amanda. It is these moments that make my job incredibly rewarding, to see the beautiful effects of my work with my lovely wedding couples.⁠

One very special moment of Amanda and Stuart's wedding will remain in my memory forever - during my morning check on the Bride, Amanda opened a gift from Stuart and in a little lovely decorated box were sitting two porcelain turtledoves with a love message. My heart was melting. This might sound like a cliché, but you genuinely could feel the love surrounding this couple!

Amanda says that the turledoves are still make a very important part of their Christmas tree decoration to this day! You could simply feel the strong bond surrounding this beautiful couple - Mr & Mrs Love!⁠
