…Just kidding. The bride in this photo, Denise, is a Scottish falconer and that owl is much, MUCH more than an accessory — its name is Puck. Denise and her husband Martin recently got married at the Dalhousie Castle near Edinburgh. Denise and Martin planned their winter wedding in just five months, and if you want to get an eye-full of how beautifully it turned out, head on over to Flickr!

After reading the title and seeing this picture, I had a horrible waking dream of Paris Hilton and all those other girls trading out their chihuahuas for owlettes… carrying them in little bags, kissing them for the cameras…. it was horrible. Horrible.
PS This wedding is beautiful and I loved his descent with the rings.

she has a laced falconry glove. that is so. fucking. cool.
This, and the wedding in the cave, are the ones I've shown a freind of mine who claims that, while she likes marrage, she hates weddings, so show her how awsome they really can be.

I love this. Not only is it a beautiful, classic, wonderful bridal shot. Not only is she gorgeous. Not only is the pose so soft, relaxed, and subtle it's almost compelling and hard to look away. The tiny owl reminds me of Ron's owl pig in HP and I believe I am smitten. (Yes, I'm that dork that loves HP, but not fanatically.. I just think it's good lit. Anyway.) Awesome.
