Wedding Feature : Embracing the Perthshire rain
Rainy wedding days don’t have to be a downer — this one at the amazing Murthly Estate in Perthshire proves it. You never know what you’ll get with the weather at a Scottish summer wedding but the best advice I can give is to embrace it and each other just like this pair of legends did.
Those lovely wee rascals, Georgina and Ross have only gone and written a lovely account of their well heavy rainfall wedding day and it’s ace so THANK YOU so much, and to Tie The Knot Scotland for featuring such a fabulous day.
“We want to give a special mention to the rain. It chucked it down solidly all day. But somehow, it made it even more special (and ultimately stopped people from wandering off). We embraced the downpour with our photographer, Solen, and second shooter, Alix. We laughed with them, we were weird with them, and they genuinely captured us. Solen’s photos are creative and a little different.”
Their wedding day was tipping it down all day (which is surprisingly rare for us, we’ve only shot a handful of days quite this rainy in the 7 years we’ve been working). So we just got super wet and weird and it was so so much fun. We went for a wonder in the rhododendrons (had to google this spelling, obviously) and danced to Harvest Moon. Literally the only wedding couple ever that will stop mid portrait session to have a wee play with some slugs in the grass. It was a total joy to hang out with them and their soggy pals and families.
Murthly Estate has the most beautiful wee chapel on-site and the Humanist ceremony with everyone singing together had me pinching myself to get my act together, it was really a lovely happy thing.
Anyways, they tell it much better than I can so hop over and read the full feature with more images and much love to everyone who made it so lovely.
Looking for something a bit different?
Every single one of our elopements are unique. We know that the wedding industry traditionally serves couples many quotes, hidden costs and “upgrades”. The Elopement Society loves nothing more than offering our couples transparency from the outset. What you see in our packages is your guide to a really great day ~we promise~ but we’re flexible and reactive based on your needs, beliefs and desires.
