Default Getting Married

Ive been a member of FFAU since the beginning, and FF before it, but have never had a whole heap to say...just sticking my nose in now and again...I'm not sure if many people are interested but I'll post this anyway.

My fiance and I are heading off to Scotland on Thursday, to get married on August 5th in Linlithgow Palace. Its a semi-ruin castle near Edinburgh. Its the birth place of Mary Queen of Scots for any history geeks...heers a few pics:

This is the room we get married in...its a small room under the palace...




Heres a photo of someone elses wedding in the same room:




Im really excited but getting quite nervous too...I have always been a bit shy...the thought of standing up there in front of everyone seems a bit daunting...but I'm sure I'll be fine on the day...

Heres a few pics of the Palace:



The courtyard



Anyway, I just ahd to post as its getting close and I'm excited!!!
I love flying too, so thats a small bonus! ;)

Cheers

Congratulations!!! I know how you feel, I'm going through the same thing as I'll be getting married in about 7 weeks, only I fly in the opposite direction to Peru in South America.

The place looks absolutely spectacular, a great setting for your wedding.

I have some friends just moved to Edinburgh a couple of weeks ago as exchange teachers and I checked the weather and looks like it may be a bit cool up ya Kilt laddie but the castle looks awesome and the photos should be absolutly fantastic. All the best for you and your partner have a wonderful life together and enjoy your day of days. Post some pics so we can all feel warm and fuzzy.

Hearty congratulations

One of my daughters is in Edinburgh today and tomorrow organising a place to live for she and her husband (he finishes work in London on Fri and then takes up a new post in Edinburgh beginning next week).

My wife and I plan a few weeks over there mid next year so we'll have a look at your wedding venue
