Hogmanay in Love . Wedding in the Romantic Edinburgh

“A loving heart is the truest wisdom.”

Charles Dickens

Melina and Alexander are the epitome of an intrepid and adventurous couple. For them, celebrating their love was about creating an occasion that would be meaningful, romantic, elegant, and relaxed: a true reflection of their brave hearts and the deep, intimate feelings they share. It was important to them that their wedding not only celebrated their bond but also represented their unique journey together.

City Chambers in the Heart of Edinburgh Old Town

For their special day, they chose the Alexander Suite at the City Chambers, right in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town. Edinburgh has always held a special place in their hearts, and this city, with its rich history and stunning architecture, was the perfect place to honor their Scottish roots. It felt like the perfect backdrop to their celebration of love. And what better day to begin their new chapter than Hogmanay? The magic of the Scottish New Year infused every moment with an unforgettable sense of possibility.

Surrounded by their closest family and friends, many of whom had traveled from France, England, and Canada, the couple was overjoyed to have their loved ones there to witness the start of their journey together. There was an undeniable sense of happiness and emotion in the air, with everyone touched by the love between Melina and Alexander. The day was filled with beautiful, heartfelt moments, and after the ceremony, the couple took a romantic walk through the charming streets of Edinburgh, illuminated by the soft glow of Christmas lights that added a special warmth to the atmosphere.

The spirit of Hogmanay"the Scottish New Year" was present throughout the day, from the ceremony all the way through to the reception. After their stroll through the picturesque streets, Melina and Alexander made their way to Cannonball Restaurant, just beside Edinburgh Castle, where they were welcomed into a space filled with warmth, love, and joy. The reception was intimate, with heartfelt speeches and meaningful words shared by friends and family. There was an undeniable sense of connection, and the room was filled with laughter, happy tears, and unforgettable memories.

To witness such a powerful and beautiful celebration of love, and to be chosen to capture their wedding, was truly a gift. I am so thankful for the opportunity to be part of this magical Hogmanay celebration—a day filled with romance, adventure, and the kind of love that can only be described as timeless.
