Yesterday's wedding was mervilleux!! Arielle and Laurent travelled from France with their four children and married at the Old Gunpowder ruins in Roslin Glen. The ceremony was completely in French, with the most beautiful heartfelt vows from Arielle and Laurent, and lovely speeches from each of the children.
We had a six-way handfasting, and despite not having a quaich or any whisky, we toasted their union with that traditional Scottish drink, the water of life from the river, drunk from a silver engraved Police Scotland badge kindly provided by John the piper. Thank you John!
Thanks to Alysa from Wildling Weddings who, as always, had arranged the most magical day for them, and who will no doubt have better photographs than me!
Felicitations, Arielle et Laurent!
