What to expect

We work with couples to create their dream wedding ceremony. Often when we speak to couples they tell us they want a personal wedding ceremony where their guests can relax and enjoy themselves. We take the time to meet couples and using our experience and training, put together a ceremony that talks about their love and is perfect for them.

We always work hard to make the ceremony that couples want with an extensive process of re-drafting until everything is just right. Then, on the big day we get there early to make sure everything is in place for a ceremony your guests will remember for all the right reasons.

We really enjoy creating your unique, personal 
ceremony.
A ceremony that only you would have. A ceremony you and your guests will love. A ceremony that shouts you.

If this is the kind of ceremony you want, then contact us to find out more, or simply fill in one of our online contact forms so we can get back in touch with you. 

Humanist Wedding?

If a religion is important to your family, a Humanist wedding may be able to include aspects of other traditional ceremonies if these are important to you and your partner. 

Scotland is one of several countries where a Humanist wedding is a legal option. This means that couples couples can have a personal Humanist ceremony whenever and wherever they want.

Speak to a celebrant to find out how to incorporate everything important to you into your ceremony.

What is a Humanist wedding like?

They just feel so personal to each couple.
​At a typical Humanist wedding you can expect;
- A warm welcome, everyone will feel welcome
- Personal vows
- The story of the couple
- Any symbolism or stories chosen directly by the couple 
- A legal wedding ceremony in Scotland when performed by someone approved by the Registrar General of Scotland

Why have a Humanist Wedding?

A trained Humanist Celebrant can marry you and ensure your ceremony is professionally delivered and personal to you.

With a Humanist Wedding you are free to create the kind of ceremony you want to reflect your love and lives together. There is a required legal declaration and a few additions that your celebrant will suggest, but aside from this there is the real opportunity with a Humanist wedding for couples to tell their stories as they want to.

Deciding to have a Humanist Wedding is a tremendous opportunity to the kind of wedding that best reflects you. Your Humanist Wedding Celebrant will have a wealth of experience and resources to help you make your ceremony beautiful, meaningful and personal to you. 

By creating your own ceremony you will be able to have control over this most important part of your day.

Where can I get married?

By law the service has to be formal and observed with dignity - however, this could take place anywhere suitable.
Humanists marriages have taken place up mountains and in boats as well as in traditional wedding venues like hotels and castles.
