Christine & Ross's Wedding

Four days into the new year and already I've shot two weddings .... it's going to be a busy year!

Christine and Ross, who we photographed a few days before the wedding in the Edinburgh Botanic Gardens, got married yesterday. There was snow on the ground, quite a change from their usual place of residence - Grand Cayman.

Christine was transported to the church in great style by Fred Multon of Wedding Classics in a beautiful 1931 Sunbeam 20. I first met Fred in 1992 and it's always a pleasure to renew the acquaintance, particularly as I have a soft spot for old cars myself. The Wedding Classics collection is run by Fred's daughter Polly and consists of a variety of genuine vintage cars, all in fabulous condition. If you have yet to book your cars you must check them out.

The church was a first for me for despite being in central Edinburgh it is constructed entirely of wood! It looked absolutely stunning inside and out as you can see from the pictures. After the marriage ceremony and a few pictures outside with the children from Christine's former primary school pupils we moved on to the George Hotel for the reception who laid on a superb function with entertainment by surely the hardest working wedding band in Scotland - Callanish.

Special mention must be made of the superb cake, featuring scenes from around Grand Cayman. I've never seen an iguana on a wedding cake before! It was a fabulous piece of work.

A great time was had by all, though none more so than Christine and Ross themselves - they never stopped smiling throughout the day and photographing them was a huge pleasure. I was assisted throughout the day by my son Callum who did a sterling job of carrying all the bags and generally helping out wherever needed.

Christine and Ross are off to New York for their honeymoon, staying at the Waldorf in New York before returning to Grand Cayman to rebuild their tans & get back to work!

Here are some of my favourite pictures from the day - normally I try and limit this to about twenty shots, but with Christine & Ross's wedding there was so much going on that I couldn't choose. Enjoy the pictures, and please use the commetns function to leave us a message. The full collection will be on the gallery in a few days.
