The Lodge on Loch Lomond Wedding // Jill & Liam
Lodge on Loch lomond Wedding
After spending time with Jill and Liam in Glencoe on their engagement shoot, I was very much looking forward to their wedding day. The two of them had so many fantastic and creative ideas for the day to make sure everyone had a good time. And their wedding day did not disappoint! With a luxury boat cruise around Loch Lomond for their guests to a performance of the Greatest Showman which included all their bridesmaids and best men, it was a day to remember. Spending the day with these two was like hanging out with a couple of friends, it was very relaxed and and fun and the whole day flowed this way.
Its a good thing their wedding was relaxed and fun as a month later they would be embarking on a new adventure and moving to Hong Kong! The perfect match and travel companions together, wishing you all the future happiness together and all the luck on your exciting new adventure abroad.
