From the aisles to the altar!

SCOTMID COLLEAGUES SAY ‘I DO’

Love found its way to the aisles of Scotmid Broxburn Store, where colleagues James and Lauren first crossed paths in 2014. The Scotmid sweethearts exchanged vows during a heartwarming ceremony at Balbirnie House in Markinch recently.

The flame was kindled during the staff Christmas party a decade ago when James finally plucked up the courage to ask Lauren on a date. To his delight, she accepted, and they ventured into Edinburgh together. Their bond continued to flourish as they worked shoulder to shoulder in Broxburn for another two years.

Lauren joined Scotmid Broxburn in 2014 before departing in 2016 to become a PE teacher, while James joined Scotmid in 2002 and now manages a Scotmid store in East Calder.

James said, “The aisles of Scotmid may not seem like the most conventional romantic setting to meet your future partner, yet for Lauren and me, they marked the beginning of our journey together.

“We’ll always cherish our time working together; our connection blossomed into a lifelong partnership.”
