Step inside our Thoughts & Crosses Showcase 🩷

It’s been a week since our first showcase and we’re still thinking about what a special afternoon it was.

Seeing couples walk around the space, spotting ideas they loved, chatting through their plans and imagining how their day could come together… that’s exactly why we wanted to host this event! 🥹

Thank you again to everyone who came along - we loved seeing you 🩷

This time last week… 🏆❤️

It’s still sinking in that we won ‘Venue Décor Provider of the Year’ for the 2025 wedding season - it makes all those early starts, late nights and even ALL nighters worth it! It means truly the world that our couples voted for TAC in this category 🥹

I Now Declare… THE COPELANDS ✨

It’s been a long time coming for this pair! The bridesmaids even had to dust off their speeches for this one!
And the guests? They certainly didn’t hold back.

With every shade of pink, the sun shining and a whole lot of love in the room, this day brought the party from the very beginning. Mhairi left no detail overlooked. From the colour palette and styling to all the little personal touches that made the day feel completely them, the pink theme and party atmosphere carried throughout every part of the celebration.

By the time the dance floor was in full swing, even the newlyweds couldn’t stay away and ended up behind the DJ booth!

This was one of those weddings where you could feel just how much thought, personality and fun had gone into creating the day. And when the couple, their friends and family are all throwing themselves into the party, you know you’ve got a good one.

A huge thank you to this incredible team of creative individuals who brought Mhairi & Craig’s vision to life:

THE TAYLORS❤️

Where to even start with this day…

I knew from the supplier line up alone that this was going to be a 10/10 day and after meeting Laura & Kris for their pre wedding shoot I was even more excited for it! They are just one of those couples who are so naturally themselves together and SO easy to photograph. Proper honeymoon phase feels after well over a decade together!

The colour scheme was an absolute dream too. Deep reds, burgundys, autumn tones… literally everything I love. Laura’s dad’s red car fitting in with it all so perfectly was just the cherry on top.

Sola, Gareth and James kept the energy going from start to finish and the atmosphere was unreal. So much music, so much fun and exactly the kind of wedding I love photographing!

Coo’s Cathedral looked incredible and the @3tierscreative team were amazing as always. I already can’t wait to be back here again.

Feeling very lucky that this is my job and that I got to be part of such a special day for Laura & Kris. Definitely still on a high from this one ❤️

THE FORSYTH WEDDING🖤

A wet and rainy day was never getting in the way of these party people! Nothing but good vibes from start to finish.🫶

Ashleigh and Robert even braved the rain for a quick 5 minutes outside but thankfully @meldrumhouse is one of those venues where rain really doesn’t change much for me. There are so many gorgeous areas to use inside that I’m never short of options!

The evening photos were SO much fun too. Ashleigh’s outfit was unreal and her and the girls were up for absolutely anything which always makes for the best photos🖤
