Marriage | Renewal Of Vows | LGBTQ+
Marriage
As a Humanist celebrant, I can legally marry you anywhere in Scotland - in your home, garden, favourite place, wedding venue.
I’ve led ceremonies in hotels and on hilltops, in fields, forests and front rooms, on the banks of lochs, on a croft in Perthshire, a coastal estate in Devon, a lavender field in Provence.
Whether you fancy an intimate, informal gathering, a rich ritual in a dramatic landscape or a traditional wedding for 100 guests, I will happily dress up, dress down, don wellies or flip flops and be there for you.
I’ll guide you through the legals and help you create a unique and personal ceremony that’s just right for you both.
Renewal of vows
If you’re already married, you may want to seal your love again with a ceremony. Maybe you married abroad and want another ceremony at home. Maybe you weren’t able to fully celebrate during Lockdown and want to share your vows again with all the important people there. Maybe you feel it’s time to restate your commitment. Whatever you need, let me help.
LGBTQ+
It’s important to me that everyone can express their true self in a ceremony. I’ve conducted ceremonies for same sex, gender fluid and gender neutral couples. I don’t just tolerate difference, I applaud it. Tell me who you are, what matters to you and the language you identify with. Let’s create a ceremony that celebrates you fully.
Fresh from marrying a couple, I pop the question… could I be the right fit to marry you?
Let’s talk
My best advice… talk to me before you even book the venue or set the date. That’s the best way for you to really explore what you want. You might want to follow strict traditions. You might be surprised to learn just how much choice you have and how easily you can do something remarkable.
Step 1 - contact me and I’ll set up a Zoom ‘chemistry check’ to make sure I’m the right fit for you
Step 2 - have our planning meeting and I’ll draft a script
Step 3 - we tweak your plans together till you’re happy.
Tying the knot
Tying the knot is an age-old tradition.
Here’s a one-minute how-to guide.
It’s very simple - but looks like magic!
At the end of the ceremony, you’ll have a love-knot as a keepsake, a memento of your wedding day.
“We barely have words to express what a contribution you made to our special day. Your ceremony was beyond special for us, full of our personality, and fitted us so well. We had SO many comments on how much it felt like us, how it helped people to know our story, that people learned new traditions and how great you were. Also an appreciation for the LGBTQ+ family too! It really was absolutely beautiful. Thanks eternally.”
— Sarah & Lou
“Thank you so much for being a part of our wedding. You were absolutely wonderful and it was such a pleasure to have met you. We can't thank you enough.”
— Brian & Emma
“So many people said the ceremony was the best one they had ever been to. Especially all our friends from abroad who had never been to a Humanist ceremony. They thought it was much more personal and meaningful. It goes without saying that the wedding would not have been the same without all your help and hard work. We are so grateful for everything you did.”
— Tom & Rachel
“Thank you so much for the ceremony last week, it could not have gone any better! We were both so so happy with how it went and we are so grateful to how brilliant you were! We had so many people come up to us and tell us how fabulous you were and how much they enjoyed it! Thank you so much!”
— Matt & Jess
“Just wanted to say thank you so much for everything you did for us both on Friday and the lead up to the wedding. You made us feel so at ease throughout the whole process and can't thank you enough for that. You are one of the coolest and nicest people we have ever met and are proud to welcome you as the third member of our team.”
