Bridal Trail

 Bride in Port Perry's business district

We (a few family members) were in Port Perry to eat delicious Fish and Chips - definitely worth the  drive - when saw this bridal party walking down the middle of this Port Perry main street.

Photographers in action

 Heading towards the Lake Scugog, a great setting for photo ops

Apparently in Port Perry this is not unusual, although I had never seen it before.

Interesting that they are walking down the center of the street. Was the street closed to traffic?

What fun captures for the day, EG!! Love the kilts!! Hope your new week is off to a great start!! Enjoy!!

Penelope Notes said...

What an awesome parade to capture. I think the men in their kilts are as proud of their heritage as the lovely bride is of her beautiful dress. I wish them a happy future.

RedPat said...

Love the kilts, EG! Lucky you to be able to capture this event!

orvokki said...

You were lucky to be in the right time in the right place. Wonderful shots from this nice scottish wedding couple.

Karen said...

A neat tradition!

Kathy said...

I've never lived anywhere where it was cool enough in the summer to walk down the street in a wedding dress! Looks fun!

Halcyon said...

Looks like she has a whole load of paparazzi following her!

What a happy scene.

Fascinating custom... Love those kilts! Was trying to read the blackboard the flowergirl is carrying, but couldn't.

mick said...

Great photos - they all look to be enjoying themselves.

Judy said...

Wonderful shots...but for some reason I expected to see a horse or two.
You were in the right place at the right time for these pictures.

CountryMum said...

I love stumbling upon bridal parties. It is always such a joyous occasion to witness a peek.

Gail Dixon said...

Sweet photos! Especially of the girl carrying the little sign. You captured the joy on the bride's face. What a wonderful occasion.

Here comes the lovely bride and her handsome groom, what a fabulous capture!

Kate said...

What fun to see kilts in a wedding party. The looks both lovely and happy. The youngest girl in the wedding party is also beautiful.

Photo Cache said...

Those wedding photos, they take them where the couple fancies them. We've encountered them in museum, in the park, in a square. It's nice to see and take photos of them.

GreenComotion said...

Cool wedding with kilts and all! Reminds me of my/our wedding where one gent wore a kilt. How cool!
It also reminds me of my blogging buddy, "Old Fool" {yup - that was the name of his blog}, who passed a few years back. He had a quote by Oscar Wilde, which said something like - "Pants are an inconvenient invention by a man" :)
Your photos of the wedding party are super!
Have a Great Week!
Peace :)

Michelle said...

A beautiful bride and I like seeing those kilts!

They must have been a very well photographed couple! xx

PerthDailyPhoto said...

I do love a man in a kilt EG :)

Jack said...

In Hartford, I could show nothing but stolen wedding pix. If I walk over to Elizabeth Park on a summer Friday or Saturday around five o'clock, I will find a dozen wedding parties strewn around the park.

I love it! The clothes of the bride as well as the groom, and the casualness of walking down the street!
