Luckily for me the bride, groom and many of the guests had stayed at Cromlix house the night before. It’s always a bit easier to have everything on one site.

Cromlix house itself is absolutely gorgeous. It’s a fabulous building, which even has its own chapel dating from 1874. The wedding day weather was stunning. I believe it was 10 degrees above average and the whole place was just idyllic.

I firstly went to see the bride – who was a bit busy having her hair professionaly put up. The hairdo was lovely and was done by Leeanne Ross of Lumia hair salon at the bridge of Allan. Various parts of her hair curled up and into other parts in a very implausible but aesthetically pleasing way.

The bridal suite at Cromlix was amazing. There was a sitting room, huge bathroom with separate toilet and a massive bedroom. I initially took some pictures of the wedding dress in the bedroom before running off to take pictures of it and the bridesmaid’s dresses in front of a fabulous wardrobe in the sitting room. The bedroom however had the best light. Which was handy as that was where everyone was getting ready. I took pictures of the preparation until 1pm when I had arranged to go and meet the groom. I left with promises that no one was going to put on their dresses before I got back.

The rings were sewn onto a lovely cushion as a small child was going to be the ring bearer. I took pictures of the rings and some of the groom and his best man indoors and then went on a quick tour of the grounds taking pictures.

When I arrived back with the girls they were ready to put on the dresses. Pauline’s dress had a corset back and so took quite a while to put on. It did look lovely once it was finished however. For once we were still on time so I managed to get some images before we left for the ceremony.

Then it was simply down a few stairs to the ceremony.

Which will be in the next part.

It was quite a simple wedding and was all at the one venue.

It was a lovely wedding and we had glorious sunshine. Not always the best for photography and we had to fight against the back garden which seemed to be full of gas canisters, mesh fences and rubbish. So we had to find something with a good background which didn’t cause everyone to squint too much.
