Kirsty & Sam McLaughlin

Saturday 19th September 2009

The bride & groom chose the beautiful setting of Dunkeld Cathedral for their Ceremony. The weather was lovely and everyone enjoyed drinks outside before moving to the Atholl Suite for their meal.

Instead of favours they donated to Water Aid, a lovely idea. They chose names of guests who attended the wedding as table names and had written a personal story about each on the front and had pictures on the back.

The Atholl Suite looked amazing with their choice of flowers which were truly stunning by Emma Harvey of Coach House Flowers - a nice autumnal theme.

They had the most chocolaty chocolate cake ever - made by the grooms mum! After the meal everyone danced the night away to Fudge Machine.

It has been a pleasure to get to know Sam, Kirsty and their parents over the last 18 months. I hope they had a wonderful honeymoon & to see them soon

Sorry it has taken me so long to get in touch. I've been waiting for our photographer to send us an image for your website from our wedding day.

I will also forward in another email a selection of photos from our big day in case you want to post them on the website or use to show other couples considering the Atholl Palace what a fantastic day they will have if they choose to select the venue!

From the moment we met you you made us feel at ease with the plans for the wedding. Everything right down to the last detail on the day was perfect. Thank you so much for the effort you put into the menus and table settings - they matched our theme exactly! It was more than we could have asked for. The entire wedding weekend went smoothly from start to finish - food was delicious and the table service was excellent! Many of our guests chose to stay over for the wedding and I know they have already booked in again to stay!

As you will see from the photos I will send myself, Sam and our parents had a brilliant day... not to mention the 160 guests!!!

Thank you to you and all the staff at the Atholl Palace for a fantastic wedding weekend that we will never forget.

Kind Regards,

Sam & Kirsty McLaughlan
