A Wedding Their Way | Drumnadrochit, Scottish Highlands | Becca & Joe | 08.08.2026
Becca and Joe among the trees during their Drumnadrochit wedding, capturing a quiet, intimate moment surrounded by the beautiful Scottish Highland landscape.
Becca & Joe's wedding day was a brilliant reminder that there really is no right way to get married. Rather than following a traditional wedding timeline, they created a day that reflected exactly who they are - from a hilltop ceremony and a Kubota journey to a four-foot tiramisu and a huge party in the village hall.
Set around Drumnadrochit and the spectacular Scottish Highlands, the day brought together the people closest to them for a celebration that was relaxed, personal and completely their own.
As a wedding videographer, these are the kinds of weddings I love to capture. There was no pressure to make the day look a certain way. Instead, everything unfolded naturally, with plenty of laughter, emotion and some wonderfully unexpected moments along the way.
A Morning of Preparations
The day began with everyone getting ready for the celebrations ahead, with Becca surrounded by family and friends.
Her dress by Divine Atelier was beautifully complemented by florals from Flùraichean Flowers, while Gillian Hoban Makeup and Suzanne McMahon Hair took care of the finishing touches.
Joe and the rest of the wedding party were getting ready too, with kilts from MacGregor and MacDuff adding a classic Scottish touch to the day.
There was an excitement in the air, but also a real sense that this wasn't going to be a conventional wedding day.
A Ceremony on Craigmonie Hill
Rather than getting married in a traditional venue, Becca & Joe chose somewhere much more personal.
Their guests were transported up Craigmonie Hill in a Kubota, making their way to Queen Mary's Rock for the ceremony.
With the Highland landscape stretching out around them, it was an incredible setting for such an important moment.
There was something wonderfully understated about it. No grand entrance or elaborate production, just Becca and Joe, their closest friends and family, and the Scottish landscape surrounding them.
It was exactly the kind of ceremony that suited them.
Doing Things Their Way
One of my favourite things about Becca and Joe's wedding was how little they worried about what a wedding day was "supposed" to look like.
There was no conventional timeline to stick to. Instead, the day moved between different places and different parts of their lives, with their family and friends at the centre of everything.
After the hilltop ceremony, everyone headed back down into Drumnadrochit for the wedding breakfast at Fiddlers Highland Restaurant.
The smaller meal with close family and friends gave everyone the chance to relax, eat together and properly celebrate what had just happened.
And then, rather than ending the day there, the celebrations continued.
From Highland Dinner to Village Hall Party
As evening arrived, everyone made their way to Glen Urquhart Public Hall for the next chapter of the celebrations.
The atmosphere changed completely.
What had begun as an intimate ceremony on a Highland hillside turned into a huge party surrounded by friends and family, with evening catering from Highland Hog Roasts and a ceilidh led by Ross Little.
It was the perfect example of how you don't need an extravagant wedding venue to create an incredible celebration. A village hall, the right people and a packed dance floor can be more than enough.
Four Feet of Tiramisu
And then there was the cake.
Except it wasn't really a cake.
Instead, Becca made a four-foot rectangular tiramisu for the wedding.
It's probably one of the most memorable wedding desserts I've come across, and another little detail that summed up the whole day perfectly.
Why have a traditional tiered wedding cake when what you actually want is a gigantic tiramisu?
A Wedding Full of Personality
Becca & Joe's wedding was a perfect reminder that the best wedding days aren't necessarily the ones that follow a carefully prescribed formula.
They're the ones where couples make decisions because they genuinely want to.
A ceremony on a hill.
Guests travelling up in a Kubota.
Dinner with the people closest to them.
A village hall party.
A giant tiramisu made by the bride.
Every part of the day felt personal, relaxed and completely authentic to Becca & Joe.
And those are exactly the kinds of moments that make wedding films so special to capture.
Becca & Joe, thank you so much for inviting me to be part of your incredible day. It was an absolute pleasure to capture your wedding and all the little moments that made it so uniquely yours.
