Weddings are often seen as a ‘girl’ thing, so this story told from the groom’s point of view is very special for lots of reasons. The words are from Ross: the atmospheric photos are by the gifted Suzanne Li. The walk down the aisle is normally reserved for the bride and her wedding party. … Continue Reading

Meredith and Joel’s Humanist Wedding at Carlowrie Castle
“I wanted to thank you for all that you did for us leading up to our ceremony, and of course the ceremony itself. It was an amazing day, and everything was perfect. Joel and I can’t thank you enough.”
Kevin and Kellie’s Humanist Wedding at Edinburgh Castle
I like to end the year on a high, and that’s exactly what Kellie and Kevin’s wedding delivered. As it was just after the winter solstice, they very sensibly chose a late start, and I remember that Kellie entered the great hall of the Queen Anne Room “at 4.38 precisely!”, a pre-scripted … Continue Reading
Marie & Keith’s Humanist Wedding at Dundas Castle

Entrance: Ali, Ste and Tim to lead everyone into the room then hang around at the front while everyone gets seated. We want to stand … Continue Reading
Jo & Gregg’s Humanist Wedding at Wedderburn Castle
The opening line of a novel is critical. The same is true of a wedding ceremony, and this one is hard to beat. Jo’s mum gave her two warnings when she left the UK almost 5 years ago for her working holiday: One: ‘If you get a tattoo, I will disown you.’ Two: ‘Just you … Continue Reading
Adele & Paul’s Humanist Wedding at Dalhousie Castle
Messages like this one from Adele and Paul just remind me how fortunate I am to be doing what I do. Words cannot express how happy we were with the ceremony and all the guests were very complimentary. One is a regular churchgoer (of the Catholic persuasion), and she was just blown away with how … Continue Reading
Victoria & WIll’s Humanist Wedding at Balbirnie Castle
Victoria and Will’s wedding was a very international affair. They met while working in Japan, and their guests came all the way from Alaska at one end of the world and New Zealand at the other to join in a very happy and joyous ceremony. This was the first time that I’ve ever had a … Continue Reading
