Groom reads vows to bride, warm orange glow, in Achnagairn Castle, Scotland

ACHNAGAIRN CASTLE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER, SCOTLAND

Scottish Charm and the Perfect Winter Wedding at Achnagairn Castle

Only 30 mins or so from Inverness Airport, Achnagairn Castle is a Scottish dream venue. Especially this time – I thought – as it was December and bitterly cold outside. It made for a very cosy time inside the castle.

Pulling shut the heavy, ancient wooden door and hearing the crackle of the open fires was like receiving a giant’s hug. The low lighting here makes the 5-star Achnagairn Castle the most cosy of wedding venues.

This was a wedding day of elegance, humour, tears and warmth.

SOME QUICK FACTS ABOUT ACHNAGAIRN CASTLE

  • The Achnagairn Estate is the setting for the historical Bonnie Prince Charlie and the magical Outlander TV series
  • There is a crest on a wall which bears the Latin inscription: ‘Peaceful but Prepared for Battle’, a very real reminder the area’s turbulent history
  • The Achnagairn Estate is a family run, 5-Star venue
  • There are 62 bedrooms on the estate; 24 in the castle, with a further 38 in the “Mini Manor” self-catering houses, located on site
Catering was supplied by Wild Thyme
The amazing band are called Sole Fire, supplied by Warble Entertainment. As I was just leaving I had to come back in to check out their cover of Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean!…they were brilliant!!
Emma’s hair was done by the Manchester-based John Yates

    A terrific talent. Our guests have made no end of comments both as to the effort you made on the day (which was unobtrusive, relaxed and always good humoured, despite working like a Trojan all day) and to the quality of the end result – the photos were simply perfect. I have had no hesitation in highly recommending you.

    Paul was superb. He captured every single intricacy throughout the day, which collectively, told the day with such clarity and detail. His ability to remain unnoticed assisted his knowledge and vision, to achieve photographs of a composed yet relaxed nature. We cannot speak highly enough of Paul; the quality of his photographs is superior and, equivocally so, is his demeanour and good nature.

    The recommendation we received to contact you was, on reflection, one of the single best wedding presents we were given…

    We booked Paul after seeing the gorgeous photographs from a friends’ wedding last year. He is the photographer at another friends’ in December and also one next year, with no doubt more to follow!

    Paul managed to shoot some of the most poignant moments without us even realising he was there. He creates photographs that have a magical, yet natural quality to them…
