Not every couple really gets the way I work, but Sally and Iain did from the word go. I remember getting this email from Sally when they’d done their homework. I can’t wait to read through these ceremonies! I’ve been reading your blog in every spare moment today and gathering up all … Continue Reading

Loch Lomond Waterfront – A Special Request
I ask my fellow HSS celebrants to boycott this venue until its owners apologise to Steven and John Devaney. Full story in the Daily Record here
Thank you, thank you, thank you
If you haven’t yet got round to designing your thank you cards, here are some great ones that have come my way recently.

Jason and Alice’s Humanist Wedding at their home in Lenzie
Can you imagine leaving it till the night before your wedding to write your ceremony? No, neither can I. Alice and Jason did. Mind you, they’re writers. And therein lies the clue.

Bita and Bryan’s Humanist Wedding at Solsgirth House
Who remembers foam parties? Everyone should. My sources tell me that the first one was in 1932, and featured Louis Armstrong dancing, singing, and of course playing his trumpet in the short film, “A Rhapsody In Black and Blue”.

Carol and George’s Humanist Wedding in The John Muir Grove at The Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh
I love what I do, and never more than when I get emails like this one from the lovely Carol and George… I don’t think we can put into words how thankful we are that a) we decided on a Humanist wedding and b) chose you as our celebrant. From the first … Continue Reading
Alex and Sandra’s Humanist Wedding at The Royal Botanical Gardens, Edinburgh
I don’t know why the gorgeous Sandra apologised for the delay in sending me these photos from her wedding – it was less than a fortnight ago, and we were very lucky because the John Muir Grove at the Botanics was bathed in that amazing golden light that you only get on an autumn afternoon. … Continue Reading
