Nicola and Martin’s Humanist Wedding wedding at the Marriott Country Club Dalmahoy
Oh oh. Here comes trouble… When someone as cute as Erin is the first to come down the white carpet, you know it’s going to be a good day. I had a great time when ‘The Tesco Boy’ and ‘The Hot Girl That Comes Into Tesco’ finally made it legal. –> Nicola and Martin … Continue Reading
Nicola and Derek’s Humanist Wedding at Melville Castle
Literally everyone who attended our wedding commented on how personal and sincere the ceremony was. Mostly people said that it felt ‘real’.
A Funeral for a Humanist
I know it sounds odd, but it’s not often I’m asked to conduct a funeral for a humanist. Lots of people want a humanist ceremony, but what they really want is, “something that’s not religious where we can talk about the person that we love”. We did that for Leslie too: his son Ian delivered a … Continue Reading
Lucy and Jeremy’s Humanist Wedding at St. Columba’s by the Castle

Selina and Jed’s Humanist Marriage at Broxmouth Park
My grandad who is a very religious man and strongly disapproved of our premarital cohabitation told us that he thought the ceremony was perfect which is high praise indeed!
Humanists offer choice in a rapidly changing world
This is the first time I’ve read a Leader article on Humanism, and I think the writer strikes just the right tone in today’s edition of The Scotsman. “But if humanists did not provide an alternative, marriage itself might be in significant decline, which should be a genuine concern for mainstream religions. The figures do not … Continue Reading
Better Late Than Never… Jane and Tim’s Humanist Wedding at The Royal College of Physicians – in 2007
I love the festival: it’s a great time for bumping into old friends, and couples I’ve married. A few nights back, coming home from Fringe by the Sea, I met Mark who I married to Lorna down at Cardrona in 2012, but then as Mrs. M and I left the Book Festival we met Tim … Continue Reading
