Bollywood Colour at Hopetoun House Hindu-Scottish Wedding

Sensing they may be losing their audience, the groom partners his mother to lead the group in some more familiar Scottish country dancing – The St Bernard’s Waltz. It’s good, but not good enough…

But that was only a small part of the day that also featured a traditional Scottish wedding.
