What a magnificent location for a marriage ceremony - on the banks of the picturesque Dunsapie Loch, nestled below Arthur's seat in Holyrood Park.
Although Claire and Craig now live abroad, Edinburgh is a place that will remain close to their hearts as it was here that they first met.
In true Scottish tradition it was raining for much of the ceremony, but nothing could dampen anyone's spirits that day!
Claire and Craig's ceremony had a distinctly international flavour. To represent Claire's heritage and the couple's international outlook on life, there were readings by friends and family in English, French, German and Irish.
Friend Marty brings some Irish humour to the proceedings!
Claire and Craig exchanged wedding rings and the vows they had written for one another.
They also 'Tied the Knot' with a traditional handfasting, using tartan ribbons representing both families.
I can promise all my heart’s devotion;
A smile
to chase away your tears of sorrow;
A love
that’s ever true and ever growing;
A hand to hold in yours through each tomorrow.
Claire and Craig, thank you for sharing these lovely photos by photographer Paul Cowan.
"Fiona, thanks once again for helping to make our wedding special and full of many great memories."
