Lovely review of the Shakespears at Traquair event of the year.

Performances run until Saturday with tickets available through the Eastgate Theatre

All the world's a stage, wrote Shakespeare, and nowhere does that feel truer than at Traquair. On a glorious Borders evening, with peacocks calling in the distance, goats grazing unconcernedly nearby, live musicians leading the audience from scene to scene, and performers appearing from every corner...

So in amongst all the May madness, we still had time for the small and intimate wedding of Taylor & Kendall.
8th of May - just dried up enough for a ceremony on the wine glass lawn.
And did we mention the dress? Wow - just wow!

Congratulations from all at Traquair.

Thank you to Rab Fairbairn for his fabulous piping, and Val Old Walled Garden Cafe for her wonderful food.
