The Outlander actor married the French photographer and beauty line founder in a romantic ceremony outside Edinburgh that honored McTavish’s Scottish roots.
Garance Doré, the author, illustrator, and founder of the skin-care line Doré, met Scottish actor Graham McTavish, best known for his roles in, on Raya. “I managed to slip through her algorithm, as she had forgotten to exclude men who resembled grumpy, bearded grandfathers!” Graham jokes. “I also pretended that I lived in L.A., when I was only visiting because I didn’t want to put her off.
The wedding took place at Borthwick Castle in Scotland this past January. “I had already discovered Borthwick before I met Garance as a venue for my 60th birthday,” Graham explains. “COVID put a delay on that for two years, so it felt right that we devote a whole week to not only our wedding but my long-delayed 60th.”
For her wedding-day outfit, Garance wanted something simple and minimal—not only because she’d always been attracted to pared-back bridal designs, but because she knew the jaw-dropping backdrop would be busy with tartans. To achieve her desired look, she called her best friend, designer Heidi Merrick, and asked her if she would make a dress—and then left her with that. “I barely sent her my measurements!” she says. “I was a very underprepared bride.
Graham, on the other hand, wanted his wedding-day look to reflect his Scottish heritage, so he wore the kilt from his clan and all the traditional adornments. He then accessorized with a signet ring engraved with his initials, along with Garance’s and those of his children, Honor and Hope. “I also wore a necklace under my shirt holding my mother’s wedding ring,” Graham says.
Garance admits that she felt both tense and excited throughout the entire ceremony. “It was the height of the whole day for me, where I literally thought I could explode,” she says. “I was also very happy to see all my friends and family, and Graham’s face when he saw me in my dress.”
