We spent this weekend in Scotland, just over the border in a village close to Gretna and Dumfries for Lynsey and Simon’s wedding at Comlongon Castle.  Comlongon Castle is a restored 14th Century medieval Scottish castle keep and baronial hotel.

While everyone else was enjoying the drinks, the best man was calming his nerves outside.

It was a bright and breezy day and keeping Lynsey’s veil under control was a challenge!

The best man needed not to have worried; he delivered a hilarious speech.

As you might expect for a wedding in a Scottish Castle, the best way to celebrate into the evening was with a ceilidh!
