A Winter Fairytale at Auchen Castle
Polly & James’ Scottish Castle Wedding | 29th December 2025
There’s something undeniably magical about a Scottish castle wedding in winter — and Polly & James’ wedding at Auchen Castle on the 29th of December 2025 was exactly that. Set against the timeless stone walls of the castle, their day was filled with warmth, romance, and the kind of love that feels quietly powerful. Made even more special by the presence of their wee boy, Bobby, this was a wedding day rooted in family, joy, and heartfelt moments.
Auchen Castle: The Perfect Winter Backdrop
Auchen Castle was the dream setting for this intimate winter celebration. The historic interiors, soft candlelight, and sweeping Scottish countryside created an atmosphere that felt both grand and deeply personal. Winter weddings have a way of slowing everything down — and this day allowed Polly & James to truly soak in every moment together.
A Family-Centred Celebration
One of the most beautiful parts of the day was how naturally Bobby was woven into every part of it. From quiet moments with his parents to joyful laughter throughout the celebrations, it was clear this wedding wasn’t just about two people — it was about a family. Those authentic, unscripted moments are what made this day so special to capture.
Timeless Style with a Modern Touch
Polly looked effortlessly elegant in her gown from Wedding Belles at Four Oaks, a dress that felt classic yet perfectly suited to the castle surroundings. Paired with iconic Manolo Blahnik heels, her bridal look was finished with soft, romantic hair by Megan Neely and glowing makeup by Abi Black MUA.
James looked every bit the castle groom in his suit from Kevin Paul Suit Hire, bringing a timeless sophistication that complemented the winter setting beautifully.
Music That Set the Mood
Live music added another layer of magic to the day, with performances by Andy Usher Music and Ell Cru Music. From emotional ceremony moments to relaxed, joyful vibes later in the day, the music perfectly reflected the atmosphere Polly & James wanted — warm, meaningful, and full of heart.
