Some of the best moments at weddings are the unexpected. We’ve never had an event quite like the escape for the Hogmanay Torch Light Procession by Jenn & Asef at their destination wedding in Edinburgh, Scotland.

The couple had made their way to the reception at the Balmoral Hotel in Edinburgh and just sat down for dinner when the annual torch light procession with thousands of Scotsmen and women lined the streets of Edinburgh. The procession marks the inception of the city’s New Year’s festivities each year.

A trail of lights seemed miles long as it meandered through the narrow streets and Gothic architecture of the city as Jenn & Asef told me of their plans to sneak outside during dinner and join in the procession.

After their guests were seated, Jenn & Asef ran outside the hotel and negotiated their way through crowd control officers (who felt guilty telling the newlyweds no) and stood front and center in the procession. Several locals snapped photos of them and congratulated the couple on their wedding. Word spread to the Edinburgh Scottsman newspaper who later interviewed couple on their reception time getaway.

This quick escape alarmed the wedding planner causing a small search team to search the hotel grounds for the bride before finding her in the street with her new husband carrying a torch.

It was great to be a part of. Hands down, one of the best unexpected events we’ve ever photographed.
