From last week in Lanarkshire and this week in Stirling, we are certainly getting to see Scotland and understand its history and heritage, great for us South African’s who don’t have many castles back home.
David and Francesa’s wedding at Stirling Castle was really special and celebrated both the Christian and Jewish faith. Pastor Scott had some great words as his wedding talk and focussed on marriage and learning to compromise, although it was clear that in marriage the husband ends up doing most of that (Stefan, you’ll understand).
David looked very dapper, with his tails and yamulkah and all the ushers were especially helpful when trying to sort out some great shots. The church was spectacular inside and with soloist Catriona Scott, everything was perfect in time for the bride to arrive.
Francesca arrived shortly, led in by her bridesmaids and on the arm of her Dad and she looked radiant, like a forest princess in gold to the sounds of Catriona’s angelic voice and the hairs on my neck stood up. I suddenly had tears in my eyes and was hoping that I wasn’t messing up the pictures in this very emotional moment – thank goodness they came out better than ever, even if I do say so myself.
After the ceremony, all the group shots were taken and very shortly thereafter whilst the guests made their way to the reception we were left with Francesca and David on their own for their portrait shots. The day was gorgeous and with the church in the background and the colours of autumn around and on the ground, this was certainly the most perfect setting for such a young and gorgeous couple.
We were absolutely delighted with how well the couple took direction for the photographs and how they helped us make the best use of what I can only describe as a most surreal background. Francesca and David, you did such a fine job and it’s clearly evident in the pictures that we took. It looks like you’re in a movie!!!! Thank-you both and we trust you are enjoying Italy……see you when you get back.
