Wedding at GG's Yard

GG’s YARD WEDDING // MAY 2022

I drove down to Castle Douglas for Laura & Carl’s wedding at GG’s Yard. It’s a gorgeous modern barn with big windows looking out to the sea and plenty of land for photos. It is always a pleasure to photograph there and today with the sun shining I knew it would be a great day! I joined Laura in the bridal suite.

Carl was downstairs in the whiskey room with the boys and his eldest son.

As Laura was dressed she got to see her Dad and her gorgeous little boy who were both tasked with walking Laura down the aisle. They had a beautiful ceremony in front of the big barn window and a circular moon gate covered in flowers.

We headed outside for the most colourful confetti ever! The wind was quite strong that day so it was everywhere! Group photos whilst guests mingled and ate gorgeous ice cream ( Scott the videographer and myself had to test it to make sure it was ok)

I kept the couple quite near the venue for the first round of photos. I used the gardens and woodland which were all nearby. This way they have the chance to socialize with guests. After dinner we will go further.

We entered the stunning dining room for some funny speeches and dinner was served.

At GG’s Yard there is this gorgeous wee beach about 3 mins away so we all hopped in my car, and headed down in time for sunset. Its nice for the couple to have a wee bit of time on their own and good for us photographers and videographers. We also decided to drive to the top of the hill at GG’s and capture a few walking in the field. It was still windy!

By the time we had done those bits it was time to head back to the venue for cake cutting and dancing! Laura and Carl looked so happy all day, just laughed and that is the ideal couple. No stress and not a care in the world. I can’t thank them enough for having me capture their wedding at GG’s Yard!
