Scottish Elopement to the coast. The Harbour Chapel, Dunbar

The romance of running away together to Scotland for a beautiful elopement on the rugged, stunning coastline of Dunbar, was the vision for David & Tanya after many years of being together.

They chose the absolutely beautiful The Harbour Chapel in Dunbar for their intimate ceremony, which was a complete secret from all of their friends and family, and they tied the knot with all of the usual wedding touches from walking down the aisle together, to tying the knot and quaiching.

Before exchanging rings with very personal vows and a lifelong commitment to each other.

And after signing the official registry, with Fiona (the owner of the Chapel) and Kris as offical witnesses, we cut the cake in front of the original organ pipes from the chapel and then headed for a walk around Dunbar Harbour for some beautiful celebratory photos.

And a final trip back to the Chapel for a glass of fizz and some time to relax for Mr & Mrs Shaw ahead of their evening meal at The Creel restaurant, Dunbar.

An elopement is a beautifully, intimate way to celebrate your love, in a totally free, and unscripted way. There are no time pressures to adhere to, you can choose which elements you really want and which you don't, and you can carefully choose your photo locations with your photographer to make sure you have the best memories of your day.

David and Tanya were a dream couple - her green dress and colourful flowers were a treat and she looked incredble, and it was my honour to be a part of such an intimate day.

Elopements are the day you want, your way.
