Emma and Liam among the blossoming gardens of the Secret Herb Garden

Emma & Liam

The Secret Herb Garden, Pentland Hills, Edinburgh — Spring 2024

Emma and Liam are the kind of couple who finish each other's sentences and laugh at jokes nobody else understands. They chose the Secret Herb Garden because it felt like their relationship: a little wild, beautifully tended, and full of unexpected corners.

Spring arrived early for their April wedding. The apple trees were in blossom, the herb beds fragrant, and the glasshouse was strung with Edison bulbs and trailing ivy. Emma's dress had pockets, which she filled with handwritten notes for Liam to find throughout the day.

The ceremony was in the walled garden, intimate and unhurried. Liam cried. Emma laughed. Their daughter scattered petals with more enthusiasm than accuracy. By evening, the glasshouse glowed amber, and the dance floor was full of people who clearly loved them very much.
