Vicki & Chris' wedding - Melville Castle Edinburgh

Saturday's wedding was freakin' awesome (oh dear I have been around Americans too much recently, I am beginning to sound like them!)

But seriously it was amazing!

When Vicki met me she told me she wanted a fairytale castle wedding; I think her dreams were fulfilled on Saturday when Cindrella married her Prince Charming at Melville Castle just outside Edinburgh.

There were a lot of personal touches to the day, with old and new merging together...and families coming together; nothing like a hug from mum in the morning..................or dad too!! At the Castle, there were some handsome young men about!
And it all came together beautifully for the ceremony................... okay perhaps the Best Man dropping the rings wasn't quite in the agenda................
But surprisingly the weather that Vicki has asked for, came through. It was amazing, considering the tornado-like weather we had the day before! Look at this texture in the sky! And this couple are just so cute together!!
Oh, did I mention that the Michaelangelo dress bought in America had a SIX FOOT TRAIN?!?

Here comes those cute men again...


And the cake.......................... well the cake took the biscuit! Isn't that AMAZING?!
There were some pretty ladies about too!
And how about this for dual purpose bridesmaids?

This was Laura in the morning, having been beautified as Vicki's chief bridesmaid
to this being Absolutely Legless at the evening reception!
Irish dancing started off the evening with a stomp!

Congratulations Vicki and Chris, enjoy your round-the-world trip (I'm not jealous honestly!) and safe journey home to Manchester.

And my thanks go to James for second shooting and assisting me at this wedding, here he is trying to figure out how to work his camera through thought process! ;-)
