Dalhousie Castle pictures of Andrew and Barbara’s wonderful day

Andrew and Barbara wanted a photographer with experience at their venue, so we were delighted to be invited to shoot their wedding photos at Dalhousie Castle.

Andrew and Barbara married in Midlothian at the stunning Dalhousie Castle Hotel and Spa wedding venue, located a few miles south of Edinburgh, in Midlothian.

Dalhousie Castle is a top wedding destination for visitors from across the world.

Andrew and Barbara’s wedding was a great example of this. Northern Irishman Andrew wed his beautiful Italian bride, Barbara.

Family and friends had travelled from many different countries to celebrate the union of this lovely couple.

What a brilliant wedding day with a wonderful and friendly group of people.

The wedding ceremony took place in Dalhousie Castle’s chapel.

A highlight of the ceremony was having the wedding rings ‘delivered’ by an owl.

Once the nuptials were completed, everyone headed outside to congratulate our newlyweds and begin the formal group photos.

We were so pleased that the weather was kind.

While the guests enjoyed a glass of champagne, the newlyweds spent around thirty minutes shooting photos around Dalhousie Castle’s beautiful and spacious grounds.

Our photoshoot ended with pictures of the newlyweds embracing on Dalhousie’s impressive ‘throne’!

It’s always entertaining when the speeches take place.

Everyone learns a bit more about the couple and a few amusing anecdotes.

Toasts to the newlyweds were completed, and everyone settled down to enjoy the sumptuous wedding breakfast.

Our coverage of Andrew and Barbara’s wonderful wedding day ended after the first few dances in the evening.

By the time we departed, the party was well underway, with family and guests joining the newlyweds on the spacious dancefloor.

It was great to be back at such a wonderful wedding venue, photographing one of our favourite weddings of the year.

With such a photogenic couple, their wedding album will look beautiful.
