A year in wedding photos - Our favourite Scottish wedding venues from 2008

Okay, this one was tough to choose - we have so many great wedding venues here in Scotland. After much deliberation we have picked our top 25 venues from weddings we photographed in 2008...

Cringletie House - The setting is beautiful and the wedding guests love the chance to play croquet on the lawns!

















The Caves - Incredibly atmospheric and the perfect place for a party.

















Howies - Has such a warm and welcoming vibe, we had a fantastic time here at a wedding in November.

















Museum of Scotland - Visually stunning, there are so many good spots for photos here!

















Traquair House - Cupid's Garden is the perfect romantic setting for an outdoor wedding, we had a beautiful day here in August.

















Fortingall Hotel - A striking location and it snowed when we were here in November!

















The Dome - Knows how to celebrate Christmas!

















Neidpath Castle - Authentic and atmospheric; the rain poured but the play continued.
























Pittodrie House - Fantastic location, we photographed a wonderful reception, complete with fireworks display here.

















Crieff Hydro - A grand venue with great features, lots of places to explore!
























Paisley Abbey - Breathtakingly beautiful. We photographed the wedding of Laura & Derek here in April and it featured in Real Life Weddings magazine.

















Melville Castle - Great hospitality in a lovely setting. We were here several times in 2008 and had a blast.

















Fingask Castle - Quirky and unique. We were here in August and again in December. Look out for this venue in the next issue of Real Life Weddings magazine!

















The George Hotel - Quite possibly the best chandelier we have seen. One of our favourite reception venues.

















Dalhousie Castle - The castle is full of character and is the perfect setting for a Scottish wedding.

















St Giles Cathedral - This imposing building has a striking interior and it was a joy to photograph a wedding there.
























The Hub - A wonderful blend of the old and the new, we love this place!
























Fettes College - Far too gorgeous for a school. We're looking forward to working here again this year.
























The Torridon - Amazing location. Our bride and groom tried out sea kayaking and clay pigeon shooting on the morning of the wedding!

















Mar Hall - A gothic delight. We were here in March and again in June and we look forward to returning.

















Mansfield Traquair - Too beautiful for words. We can't wait to go back.

















The Balmoral Hotel - Classy and elegant. We regularly photograph weddings at The Balmoral and it is consistently excellent.

















Prestonfield - Delightfully decadent, we had a wonderful time at The Stables in December with Raffy, Tim and their guests.










Fyvie Castle - Beautiful setting and a striking interior. Our last wedding of 2008 took place at Fyvie Castle and it was the perfect way to end an amazing year.










The Lodge, Loch Goil - Quite simply stunning. And where else can you get married in a tree house, by a loch?
