St Mary’s Cathedral Edinburgh Wedding of Rebecca and Ross

It felt wonderful to be photographing a ‘big wedding’ back in Edinburgh! It was such a pleasure to photograph the fantastic St Mary’s Cathedral Edinburgh wedding of Rebecca and Ross!

After postponing and moving the date of their special day several times due to COVID-19 restrictions, finally, their special day went ahead, and we couldn’t have been happier for this lovely couple.

Catholic Ceremony at St Mary’s Cathedral

Rebecca and Ross chose the fabulous setting of St Mary’s Cathedral Edinburgh for their marriage ceremony.

We’ve always loved photographing and filming Catholic marriage ceremonies at this fabulous and historic building which is located in Edinburgh city centre.

Guests arrived at Rebecca and Ross’ St Mary’s Cathedral Edinburgh wedding to the Celtic skirl of the bagpipes, played by legendary Pipe Major Iain Grant. Groomsman Ross looked smart in his kilt outfit from local kiltmaker Gordon Nicholson. Ross looked so happy; he didn’t seem nervous and took everything in his stride as he greeted and chatted with his guests.

Joined by fifty of their closest family and friends, Rebecca and Ross had a touching marriage ceremony led by Father Jamie McMorrin. A public proclamation of their love and the bond they share for each other, Rebecca and Ross beamed with happiness as they became husband and wife.

Rebecca was glowing for her St Mary’s Cathedral Edinburgh wedding. She was such a beautiful bride; her radiance was captivating. Classic and elegant, Rebecca wore her long hair in soft waves, a crystal tiara and a delicate bridal veil. Her stunning dress with crystal and pearl detailing was by Edinburgh-based designer Tatsiana Marynich of Fashion Bride.

After the marriage ceremony, the newlyweds were met with warm congratulations. A group photo with the bride and groom caught the attention of passers-by. Then a beautiful confetti shower followed on the steps in front of St Mary’s Cathedral Edinburgh.

Afterwards, Jonathon went in the car from Lothian Classic Wedding Cars with the newlyweds up to the Old College on South Bridge. The Old College is a building that forms part of the University of Edinburgh. Its stunning architecture made the perfect setting and backdrop for Rebecca and Ross’s romantic newlywed photo shoot.

Reception at Waldorf Astoria Edinburgh

Claire made her way to Waldorf Astoria Edinburgh – The Caledonian Hotel, where guests enjoyed themselves at the champagne reception in the Castle Lounge. The mood was happy, relaxed and charming. The room was filled with smooth tones from the piano. It was great to see everyone having such a wonderful time.

It was fantastic and an honour to be back at The Caledonian for the hotel’s first big event since lockdown. We’re always made to feel welcome by the hotel’s friendly and professional staff. It was great to see The Caledonian Hotel looking so good and busy.

The Castle Suite looked sensational, dressed for the meal. Tables adorned with beautiful fresh flowers by local florists, Roseparks, and pretty pink organza bows tied on the backs of chairs. Delicate favours of French macarons positioned at each table setting added the perfect personal touch.

Speeches in The Castle Suite

As the newlyweds were announced into The Castle Suite, guests clapped and cheered in time with the piper Iain. What a joyous occasion with a great atmosphere!

A delicious meal was served for all to enjoy, followed by emotional and humorous speeches by Rebecca’s Dad, Ross’s brother and the groomsman himself. There was lots of laughter! It was awesome to catch all the reactions, all the joy and love of Rebecca and Ross’s fabulous day.

First dance in The Castle Suite

Rebecca and Ross took to the dancefloor to perform their first official duties as husband and wife, the cake cutting and their first dance. Surrounded by family and friends, watching in complete awe as Rebecca and Ross twirled around the dancefloor. They looked very much in love and lost in that special moment together!

We had an amazing day! Congratulations once again to our lovely newlyweds.

Amazing service provided by Johnathan and Claire! They captured every detail of the day perfectly, and it was so lovely to look back on parts of the day that I had missed! There isn’t a single picture I don’t like. Thanks so much to you both!
