Zoe and BillyMarried in EdinburghJonathon and Claire are the loviest couple.. from our very first communication they made us feel special and were so interested in who we are as people! They tailored everything just for us, and had they not radiated such beauty and kindness, we wouldn’t have even known they were there… and for two people like us who HATE getting photos taken, we had a great time and felt so comfortable!
We got married on 31st December, and they gave up their own celebrations with their families to help us capture ours...
We truly hit the jackpot, and wouldn’t ever trust anyone else to capture our special celebrations and moments!
Please don’t pass up the opportunity on having these two look after your special day! Very trustworthy and fantastic value for money.

Borthwick Castle wedding videographer pre-ceremony preparations
The short video above showcases the first couple of hours of Chris and Lee’s wedding day, condensed into a few minutes of highlights.
Our day as a Borthwick Castle wedding videographer began with shooting some aerial drone footage of the impressive castle and its surrounding gorgeous countryside.
We couldn’t wait to see our lovely couple. Lee and Chris were getting ready together in the fabulous Gatehouse of Borthwick Castle.
The Gatehouse is an entirely private suite, oozing in luxury and opulence.
Centre stage, a marble roll bath and a ‘replica four-poster marital bed of King Henry VII’ for the added wow factor.
This suite is decadent and refined with a log-burning fire, luxurious drapes and stunning fabrics.
Lee, Chris and their best women cracked open a bottle of champagne and exchanged gifts with their Best Women during their final preparations in The Gatehouse.
We captured candid film footage and detailed shots of the boys wearing their dapper wedding outfits, Lee in a full kilt outfit and Chris in tartan trews.
Humanist ceremony in the Garrison
As guests took to their seats in the Garrison room of Borthwick Castle, they enjoyed a modern mix of songs played by talented harpist Sarah MacNeil.
The Garrison not only looked beautiful, filled with fresh florals by Bonnyrigg Flowers, but it also smelled fabulous.
Lee and Chris exchanged their wedding vows with a beautiful, personable Humanist ceremony hosted by celebrant Marilyn Jackson.
As Borthwick Castle wedding videographer, it was great to film as emotions ran high, and our couple tried to hold back the tears.
It was clear this meant the world to Lee and Chris.
You could feel the love in the room, and there was no doubt of the importance of their commitment.
Lee and Chris couldn’t take their eyes off each other as they officially tied the knot.
Champagne reception
Our newlyweds then moved downstairs to the beautiful State Room, where they had a traditional receiving line, with hugs and kisses of congratulations from all their guests.
Lee and Chris enjoyed relaxing and mingling with their guests as Jonathon and I continued as Borthwick Castle wedding videographers, filming the merriment of the drinks reception.
Jody Magician provided some trickery which kept all the guests entertained, especially the kids, it was great to catch their reactions on video!
Dinner and speeches in The Great Hall
Guests were called to dinner at The Great Hall of Borthwick Castle.
A room fit for Royalty, The Great Hall certainly has that impressive wow factor.
With its open roaring fire adding to the romantic ambience, guests enjoyed lovely, heartfelt speeches and a lavish wedding breakfast.
Evening party
Our day as Borthwick Castle wedding videographer drew to a close as the evening celebrations kicked off with our newlyweds cutting their fabulous three-tiered wedding cake by Liggy’s Cake Company with a lethal-looking sword as guests took advantage of this photo opportunity.
Hand in hand, Lee and Chris took to the dancefloor for their first dance as a married couple. What a performance!
All eyes were on the boys as they danced together to their special song, ‘All The Lovers’ by Kylie Minogue, as if they were the only ones in the room.
It was the perfect ending to a beautiful day as Chris and Lee’s Borthwick Castle videographer.
Congratulations again to Chris and Lee. Our memories of your day as Borthwick Castle wedding videographers are filled with happiness, love, and warmth.
It’s always a pleasure to film at this exquisite venue. Be sure to reach out to check our availability if you are getting married and looking for an experienced Borthwick Castle wedding videographer.
