A Scottish Highland Wedding – More Photography From Dean and Dani’s Celebration

Thursday, May 27th, 2010

Dean and Dani were married at Forter Castle in Glen Isla towards the end of last year. I posted some images of the preparations here and it is high time that I posted more images from their day.

The castle has some beautiful details and is a unique and peaceful setting.

The room has a four poster bed and is fitted with traditional antique furnishings, including a writing desk positioned in one of the turrets  and a library area on the opposite side. Perfect for a newlywed couple.
