Today I want to share with you Burgh Halls summer wedding of Jenni and Gary. I will be bombarding you with few weddings this week on my blog, so get ready. Summer peak time is here :))

Jenni and Gary were very lucky with the weather, as you know it can be tricky here in Scotland. They wedding took place in Burgh Halls, recently renovated (2011) venue just beside the Linlithgow Castle, Linlithgow. The palace itself was house of the kings and queen of Scotland in the 15th and 16th centuries.

All about this wedding was great. The couple, the ceremony, the people. Everything is perfect when you’re surrounded by the people you love and care about. Specially son of the bride and groom, which was cheerful, and quite happy seeing his mom going through the aisle to meet her hubby to be. Pitty only there was no too many kids after the ceremony for him to play with, althou Jenni and Gary took care of that perfectly. That’s what you call perfect parenthood.

Beautiful detailed Jenni’s shoes and ring were lovely to photograph. On top of that the Daisy Dream perfume gift from Gary in the morning for Jenni made perfect match.

Morning was very relaxed. Jenni was treated with prosecco and she kept saying how excited she is to see Gary.

Jenni’s sister Kim was very excited and emotional during whole day. She was beside her sister all the time making her laugh and cry.

The light which for some can be poor,  for me was beautiful! It create beautiful shadows which expose even more Jenni’s beautiful body and face!

Jenni not only took blue eyes after her father but also sense of humor. She is one of the happiest person I have ever met!

After the ceremony when all emotions cooled down we went to the back of Burgh Halls where I found beautiful cherry trees for some portrait of the bride and groom.

When speeches finished I looked through the window and saw beautiful sunset at the squere.

I have asked Jenni and Gary if they would like to take some fresh air so we can make couple of more portraits with this beautiful light.
