FORT WILLIAM RAILWAY SOCIAL CLUB WEDDING

Carol and John told me how John has worked on the railways for years and so they wanted to get married at the Fort William Railway Social Club because the venue meant so much to them. They had me then and there, there is nothing I love more when couples pick a venue because it means something more than just a pretty backdrop.

A lovely building with stunning views of Ben Nevis. The walls are adorned with beautiful photos and paintings each telling the history of the railway.

A HIGHLAND WEDDING STEEPED IN TRADITION AND A FOUR LEGGED RING BEARER.

Carol got ready and home and was piped up the street to the ceremony, there was a very heartfelt moment with her Aunt, who couldn’t make the wedding but wanted to see Carol and wish her well. There wasn’t a dry eye in the street.

The ceremony was officiated by the brilliant Humanist Alyson Stewart, with their wee dog bonnie as the ring bearer. They chose some Celtic traditions including the handfasting, a ritual where the hands are tied together to symbolise the binding of two lives, taking their vows whilst holding the oathing stone and the tradition of jumping the broom, with Bonnie, of course!

We dodged some pretty big rain showers but still managed to make some lovely wedding day portraits. Their priorities were a no fuss, super relaxed day with all their friends and family witnessing them becoming husband and wife. It was everything they dream it could be and more.

CAROL, JOHN AND ALL YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR DAY AND TRUSTING ME TO CAPTURE THESE MOMENTS.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT X

You captured perfectly the joy and love we felt on our wedding day. I didn’t think it was possible to capture in photos just how much love, happiness and emotion was in the room. You nailed it Laura.
