✨ Fiona & Graeme’s Scottish Elopement ✨
As a fellow islander (I’m from Shetland in case I’ve not mentioned it before 😜) I understand the expectation of having a wedding in a small community where everyone knows you and generally expects to be invited to your wedding…
That wasn’t what F&G wanted at all, so when they got in touch wanting help to sneak off to the mainland and elope I was absolutely delighted to help them 🥰

✨ Alison and Zac’s Scottish Destination Elopement ✨
This one will forever hold a special place in my heart as despite helping plan and having attended MANY weddings, this was my first time ever acting as a witness 🙌🏻
A truly wonderful day hanging out with A&Z while they exchanged vows with only me, and there to share the moment with them ❤️ then celebrating with plenty of fizz 🥂 and 🍰 afterwards - the important things in life 😜
This was also the birth of Cat the Bag - IYKYK 😂

🖤 HAPPY ANNIVERSARY 🖤
Jamie & Andrew got caught in all the drama of the C-word and the postponing that came with that, meaning we spent a good 3 years planning and replanning their wedding from start to finish… but my goodness it was worth the wait!
It was such an honour and privilege getting to know this couple and their wonderful family and friends… I cannot wait to catch up with them on their next trip to Scotland 🏴 which will hopefully be soon 🤞🏻 hope you’re having the best time celebrating your anniversary 🎉

I know many couples will fall in love with a wedding venue because they love the outside - the gardens, the views, the surrounding landscape. They’ll imagine an outdoor wedding on a gloriously sunny day. But let’s be realistic here - we’re in Scotland. You might not get that outdoor wedding. The weather might not play ball. And if it doesn’t, then you don’t want to be stuck inside with a venue interior that you hate.
You absolutely need to love your venue, inside and out. Especially if the worst does happen and it’s tipping it down (see this weekend for example 👀) then that ‘backup’ indoor space will be in all your photos.

When you’re looking for your venue you should have some idea of your guestlist and how many people your venue will need to accommodate. However, when it comes to the stated maximum capacity what will it realistically look and feel like on your wedding day?

Doing Sundays right ❤️
With Cat’s pup not being well this week (.vizsla is on the mend now thankfully!) we thought it the perfect time to share a little from Rachel & Howard’s Wee Wild Wedding last year… just the two of them saying ‘we do!’ along with their gorgeous lil’ flowerpup Storm ❤️ more dogs at weddings please! 🐾

We’ve not been the best at posting recently 🫠 but by sheer chance when taking a trip down memory lane we realised it’s a whole year ago today since Richard & Catherine had the most EPIC Wee Wild Wedding, with glorious sunshine ☀️ on one of the hottest days of last year!
As you can see, their lochside ceremony, turned in to a wee couples dook to cool off!! 😎 What a way to celebrate!! YASS! Love it!!! 🎉 happy anniversary!

A rare shot of us in action… at this point we were enjoying the speeches (plus keeping a close eye to ensure no one decided to ramble on for too long 😜)
As we celebrate 6 years in business today 🙌🏻 we’ve already introduced you to Cat - our fearless, blue steel posing leader… keep your eyes peeled as later today we’ll introduce you to our other incredible planner Louisa 🥳
We also have help from the wonderful VA elves at so big shout out to Sarah and her team for the fantastic work they do, which helps us stay on top of all things FF related behind the scenes - a complete bunch of wee stars 🌟

Well it’s been a hot minute hasn’t it 🙃 as a somewhat full on and busy year, we’ve not been on social media much - instead focusing on all the lovely weddings we’ve had so far this year… so much goodness to share with you! ❤️
However today is a kinda a big deal - we turn 6 years old today 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 it was a Tuesday then too back in 2016 when Cat launched her planning business under the slightly less catchy name of ‘Love Cat D Weddings’ 😄 ah memories! Fast forward to 2018 with a rebrand, new name and we’ve not looked back! Yes there’s been a few bumps along the way (C-word anyone 👀) but here we are still going strong 💪🏻 and that’s down in no small part to our fearless leader… Cat, Kitty Cat, Cat-erpillar you get the idea 😁
So here’s a little bit more about the lady who started it all, our wedding planner extraordinaire - Cat 🙌🏻
“I think anyone who knows me will tell you I adore what I do and I want my couples to share in that and love planning their wedding plus have fun along the way 😃
I don’t take myself too seriously (evidence above 🤣 can’t resist a bit of blue steel action for the camera!)
When not planning awesome weddings for amazingly fun couples then you can find me hanging out with Mr D and our pup .vizsla (yup my dog has her own Instagram account, judge me I don’t care 😂)”
