Wedding Venue Check - Ingliston in Glasgow

I often get asked if we do wedding photography in Glasgow – indeed we do and we don’t even charge for travel within the central belt! We have a fair number of weddings coming up this year in Glasgow and central Scotland so if you are wanting wedding photography in that area please get in touch at info@weddingphotography-edinburgh.co.uk.

I am doing the wedding photography for a friend of my brother and sister in law in June. They are getting married in a fantastic venue – Ingliston in Glasgow www.ingliston.com/weddings/ which is a lovely upmarket horse arena which also caters to conferences and of course weddings.  I was going to be over that way seeing a client anyway so I decided to go and see the venue as well.

It is lovely. Outside there is the most magnificent statue.

Made of – old horse shoes. What a fabulous idea! Here is a close up so you can see the detail.

Gorgeous! I feel that this may make an appearance in the wedding photography.

Unfortunately the wedding coordinator Ian Maxwell was not available – however I did get shown around the venue. It is done in the art deco style and is apparently meant to be a recreation of the old Ritz in London. There is a fabulous stairway:

As well as a bar with beautiful backlighting and period bar stools.

There is another room with another private bar and the tables for the wedding breakfast.

They have also booked the terrace, so fingers crossed for good weather. You can see the horse influence everywhere.

Which shouldn’t be a problem as my sister in law (who is the maid of honour) and her friend (the bride) are very into horses. Unfortunately I’m allergic to them myself – although only mildly. However as there was a competition on I couldn’t resist getting some pictures of the show jumping.

So all in all a lovely venue with tonnes of scope for excellent photography.

Should be great fun!
