I am sure you have heard the song that goes "on the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond". One of the most stunning features of Paisley and Glasgow, apart from all the history, culture and architecture of those places is the access to the most amazing scenery, relatively close by. 30 minutes sees you in the some of the best countryside in Scotland, and some of the most spectacular has to be the
national park area around Loch Lomond, with the imposing feature of Ben Lomond in the background. As a wedding venue a couple are spoiled for choice in this area, with a broad range of choice from the very picturesque Duck Bay Marina to the grand setting of Cameron House Hotel.
Donna and James chose the Lodge on Loch Lomond, in the picturesque village of Luss. This village is a photographers dream - if the weather holds fair!! As I have said before, think about your venue and imagine a wet weather day: is there somewhere to take photographs, where will your guests mingle, is there any intimate little corner to escape to? Because if the weather clags in, sometimes nobody is stepping outside...least of all a girl in a lacy white dress and veil!!
Fortunately it was definitely Donna and James's lucky day, their beautiful sunny wedding day in Luss was a pleasant surprise between 2 wild, wet and stormy days. After their ceremony they were able to walk along the beach with their bridal party led by the pipes and drums of - wait for it, Drums and Roses!! (
as seen on Britains got Talent). The bridal party looked so smart with the boys in grey and black and the girls in a stunning peppermint green, all set off by the stunning backdrop of the Ben and loch.
Photographs on the beach, on the pier, looking out onto Ben Lomond, on the wee wooden bridge, we managed to do a huge amount in the time available. Donna, James, please enjoy these taster images, with lots more to come.
