Kirsty & Nick, Kinkell Byre, St Andrews; part eleven

How about a washing line for a table plan?! SO cool, and totally fitted into the venue's rustic feel.The couple were piped into the cake cutting, and the meal.

Oh those envelopes......... the person that was to open them was to be the server of the champagne for the table! A great way to start conversation!
The couple came up with a very novel idea of finding out who was having the beef or salmon for their main meal; each guest was to take a coloured ribbon for themselves and tie to their chair. Each colour was relevant to a particular meal. Some of their friends found even more novel ways of wearing their colours!

Kirsty & Nick, Kinkell Byre, St Andrews; part nine

You have to hand it to Kirsty's mum............... as the Mother of the Bride, she took to taking pebbles off the beach, to hand make place names for each and every guest!
Table names were named after places the couple had been to, or were going to - like the amazing Maldives island they were to honeymoon on.
This toast was from a previous wedding!

Ah the envelopes..... will come back to that........

Kinkell Byre was a new venue on me, but one I have been wanting to photograph in for a while. It was certainly unique and there were lots of lovely touches.

Kirsty & Nick, Kinkell Byre, St Andrews; part six

Pathhead Nurseries did an amazing job on the flowers to go with the champagne bridal dress and the steel grey bridesmaids dresses.We had a quick session around the outside of the church, and then it was time to shoot off down the coast to Kinkell Byre.
This is one quirky, funky venue - it's basically a cow byre! But it's okay, there is no cows in it no more, just one modern-day wedding venue!
Before the newlyweds joined the party, we had planned to have the second part of the couples session around the Byre. We totally took advantage of the amazing weather.

Kirsty & Nick, Kinkell Byre, St Andrews; part five

We had to run back into the church as it was about to be closed up, and the couple wanted images taken in there. The light was so sweet........ It showed off Kirsty's beautiful Benjamin Roberts dress fantastically, again bought from Aliya Rose.

Kirsty & Nick, Kinkell Byre, St Andrews; part four

I adored how happy this pair were when they walked out of the church into the sun. They high-fived each other! So fricking cool!
Lots of hugs and kisses and cuddles from the guests.

I think this image just sums the whole day up, Kirsty has the BIGGEST smile ever!
