For years, Lisa Haggart had dreamed of her fairytale wedding and it was about to happen when disaster struck
-
Dominating the landscape on the breathtaking Isle of Mull, Duart Castle is like a fairytale - the kind of venue every bride dreams of tying the knot in.
And it was where florist Lisa Haggart planned to marry her partner of 14 years, welder fabricator Ian Whitaker.
Mull's dramatic beauty - so different to their home in Scunthorpe in Lincolnshire - had stolen the hearts of the couple and their children, Esme, 12, and Eddie, seven, who had made the setting their preferred holiday destination for years. Now, they were rolling a family holiday and honeymoon into one - enjoying a few days in a caravan with spectacular views before and after the wedding. But a wild storm had raged since they arrived, largely confining them inside.
With the kids getting cabin fever, on August 4, Lisa and Ian, both 39, seized a break in the rain to take Eddie out with for a walk. Esme stayed indoors with Lisa's parents, Anne and Andy Haggart. Heading to the beach beside the campsite, being mindful of the soggy ground, Lisa recalled: "It was the day before my wedding and I was positively giddy with excitement.
"We'd been on the Isle of Mull for a few days and had the most relaxing time. It was lovely to spend time as a family. After the walk, I was planning on heading back to camp to work on my bouquet. As a florist, I'd be making my own. I'd chosen the roses and sunflowers a few days earlier in Oban."
Strolling along with Eddie, behind Ian, Lisa couldn't believe it was 14 years since their first date, watching Super 8 at the cinema.
And it was more than 10 years since Ian's Christmas Day proposal.
"I thought I was opening a gift when my favourite song, A Thousand Years by Christina Perri, came on," Lisa recalled. "I opened the present to find a ring propped up on a cushion with a message that read, 'Lisa, will you marry me?' I leapt into his arms and said yes."
