Last year, Shaun shared her plans to elope against Scotland’s stunning backdrops, and I was blown away. She chose Elgin Cathedral as the venue! Just picture this ancient gem, filled with centuries of fascinating stories and turbulent histories. I jumped at the chance to be involved. The idea of an Elgin wedding completely enchanted me. It felt like a tale spun by the windswept Highlands themselves!

As we explored Shaun’s vision for her special day, I discovered some really cool details. First off, she wanted a luxurious cottagecore vibe. Think plush comfort mixed with rustic charm. Since we both loved Outlander, it made perfect sense to channel Claire Fraser’s spirit. Plus, Shaun’s love for plants and greenery added another lovely layer to her plans. Everything came together beautifully!

The Wedding Day

Fast forward to the 11th of May. We finally arrived at the Mansion House to meet Shaun and her crew in person. Everything Shaun described was there in abundance. There was a lovely touch of mystical allure all around. Tarot cards, sacred oils, and an atmosphere full of feminine mystique wrapped around us like a gentle spell. Since I practice pagan traditions myself, I felt a real connection. It was as if fate had brought us together for a reason.

During the wedding photography session, we infused each shot with a bit of practical magic. Capturing the mystical and enchanting ceremony was an absolute honour. It quickly became clear that destiny had woven our paths together.

After the ceremony, we headed to Orrin restaurant in Elgin for their reception. It was luxury at its finest! The wine flowed freely, and the restaurant surprised Shaun and Zack with a piper to welcome them in.

Shaun and Zack radiate such rare and beautiful kindness. I feel so lucky to have been part of their journey. Honestly, it was a blessed occasion where magic and love intertwined seamlessly.
