Lesley and Iain's wedding

When you plan a wedding, you hope for a lovely day and for everything to be perfect.

So what happens when the following happens on your wedding day?

- the hair and make up ladies are late thanks to traffic jams and accidents on the motorways

- the wrong colour of Cadillac turns up for the bride
- the groom is late again thanks to the traffic jams

- the rain does not stop............. all day, infact it hammers it down............. all....................day

What do you do............?

You do what Lesley did at her wedding day yesterday; look gorgeous, smile all day and just accept all the little things that happen on your wedding day.

Lesley looked so relaxed amongst the chaos that resumed in the morning.
Daughter Lauren helped her mum into her amazing Maggie Sottero dress
And the groom did finally get there; I don't know who looks the most relieved here; Iain or Lesley!We had such great plans for photos at both Park Circus and Eastwood Park but the rain stopped us going to Eastwood. And thanks to the wedding conveyor belt of Park Circus, Glasgow, we got exactly 5 minutes of photos there, and they stopped the parents coming into the conservatory for the parent formals! I am sure one of the main reasons why couples choose to marry in Park Circus is the beautiful and ornate surroundings. It's such a pity that we photographers just do not get much of an opportunity to use these surroundings, as there are so many weddings on at the one time and there is a queue for the balcony and conservatory!! (rant over...........)


We managed some great shots at the Redhurst Hotel though; you just have to look for some great light...........even if it happens to be in the ladies toilets!!
And even at 9pm at night, Lesley still looked amazing!
And the band at night were excellent!It was a joy to photograph your wedding, all the little things are just a challenge and you are still guaranteed amazing photos in the end. I can't wait to show you the full results when you return from honeymoon!
