A winter Kilmardinny Wedding in Bearsden
Kilmardinny House Wedding in Bearsden
As a wedding photographer based in Glasgow, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing countless love stories unfold, but Alex and Rhianna’s wedding at Kilmardinny House in Bearsden was truly unforgettable. Nestled in the heart of Bearsden, Kilmardinny House offers a beautiful blend of history and charm. Its elegant Georgian architecture and tranquil gardens create the perfect backdrop for any wedding, and Alex and Rhianna’s day was no exception.
Portraits in the Gardens
After the ceremony, we stepped out into Kilmardinny’s picturesque gardens for portraits. Rhianna dressed in a stylish white playsuit and kept warm with a soft ivory jacket for when we escaped outdoors for photos. There was a chill in the air but we had such a laugh and so much fun taking photos that none of us noticed the cold.
