I always enjoy a wedding at The Piersland, staff especially Martin are always fab. Alan and Carly’s wedding was fab. Alan booked me (well thought he booked me) on recommendations of a couple of his employees. He owns the Timber shop. Anyway he had phoned, enquired and never got back to me until a month before the wedding saying they thought they had booked, luckily I still had the date or I would have missed this great day.  They popped up to my summerhouse studio for a chat beforehand,  Carly was a bit shy and at first had decided she didn’t want any photos at prep but I was going to go anyway and take some photos of her girls and some of Alan. 

I arrived at the Piersland in Troon and Carly was very excited and happy for me to take photos of prep! Which was great as it meant she got more comfortable with me as the day went on. This is one of the reasons why I enjoy doing wedding prep photos as it ends up feeling that I’m just there having a good natter and laugh. There wee Pomeranian made an appearance and stole the show!

They had a lovely ceremony with a few tears and plenty of laughs conducted by John Tonner, and then everyone headed outside to enjoy the beautiful weather and get group photos. We also got fab couple photos using the lovely gardens at the Piersland with no need to go elsewhere. 

Speeches were funny and dinner was top class. We even got a cracking photo of them when a rainbow appeared in the garden. For the reception they had the Xfactor contestants the McDonald brothers who got everyone up from the start of dancing!
