Edinburgh City Chambers Elopement: Millie and Pierre’s Epic Day

What a brilliant secret we had to keep! It was an absolute blast photographing Millie, Pierre, and their elopement crew at the stunning Edinburgh City Chambers. This brilliant couple, originally from Wales, chose Edinburgh for their special day, as it holds a significant place in their hearts—they got engaged here a few years back. It made perfect sense for them to return to this beautiful city to tie the knot.

These two are the embodiment of coolness and pure joy. They are so easy to get along with and great fun, making the day brilliant from start to finish; just as we knew it would be. Try get to the end of this blog without a big grin on your face, so infectious :)

After their perfect ceremony at the Edinburgh City Chambers, it was a quick hug and ‘see you in a few hours’ to their pals before we ventured around the city to some of their favourite spots. One of the highlights was Millie climbing up the National Monument in her wedding dress and Docs — what a legend, no mean feat.

Adding to the day’s cool touches and their individuality was their Enter Shikari inspired banner by Daydreamer Creative Studio (a nod to their shared musical tastes), their exit to bubbles instead of confetti and their cayyoooot matching nail art. And, of course, a visit to Edinburgh wouldn’t be complete without stopping by Sofi’s Ice Cream. We captured some sweet moments (literally!) as Millie and Pierre enjoyed a well-deserved treat. If you ever find yourself in Edinburgh, Sofi’s Ice Cream is definitely worth a visit.

Millie and Pierre’s elopement was a day filled with snorts of laughter as we adventured round the capital. It was an honour to capture their day, two of the best so they are!
