Who? : Elhana & Jad
What? : Large Castle Destination Highland Wedding
Where? : Achnagairn Castle
When? : May 2025
Elhana & Jad travelled all the way from Washington with family and friends to have a wonderful Highland wedding celebration. Elhana reached out to me 14 months prior to their special day and the brief I was given was “We are looking for 2-3 night stay, exclusive use venue for around 120 guests – preferably all staying together and the only must-have that is proving difficult to find is a Lebanese Zaffe Group”.
With this brief and knowledge of their budget I knew instantly Achnagairn ticked all the boxes and I helped them put all the logistics in place for their day, I liaised with the vendors, confirmed a timeline and secured all the details for their ceremony & reception. I also managed to find a fantastic Lebanaese Zaffe group who travelled up from London to provide Jad & Elhana with grand ceremony & reception entrances, lively musical processions featuring drummers, traditional dancers and singers.
There were so many special moments from their day — Elhana’s emotional first look with her dad, the joy on their faces as they walked back up the aisle, and the excitement of working alongside Libby from Hands Full of Flowers, the Lunch Box Boys team, and Nicola from Eva’s Covers to transform the Grand Hall for their reception. Seeing Elhana and Jad’s reaction when they stepped into the finished room was truly unforgettable.
