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
Donna and Graham’s Humanist wedding at Marlyn’s Wynd
There’s usually a good four month gap between the wedding and me blogging about it, but this has to be a record. I married Graham and Donna four YEARS ago! It was meeting them at Kevin and Lindsay’s wedding at the Hub last Christmas that brought them right back to mind. Marlyn’s Wynd is one … Continue Reading
Chris and Gill’s Humanist Wedding at Portobello Town Hall
“Thanks so much for an amazing ceremony. It was everything we hoped for and more and you delivered it perfectly.”
Jools and Iain’s surprise wedding at St Columba’s by the Castle
It was at the beginning of July that Jools and Iain got in touch about their surprise wedding this August. That’s right – less than two months later! They’ve been together for almost eleven years, having come up here (separately) from Brighton. Since then they’ve had two wonderful children and “built their fortress” as they describe their relationship. … Continue Reading
Claire & Gareth’s Humanist Wedding at The Thomas Morton Hall in Leith
People find all sorts of ways to fall in love, but Gareth and Claire were the first couple I’ve married who got together while running. Along with Gareth’s dad and other friends from Inverness, they were part of the infamous “Tuesday Night Running Club” where Claire got her nickname ‘Coach McGeary’. Their wedding was … Continue Reading
Fran and Bobby’s Humanist Wedding on Calton Hill
Thanks again Tim for making our day just that, ours in every way”.
Belinda and Brian’s Humanist Wedding at Dalriada, Portobello
You don’t need to be a writer to create a great ceremony, but it helps. Belinda and Brian can certainly string a sentence together, and I remember how much I liked the laid-back, funny way they wrote their homework. It was a long, long story (because they’ve known one another for a long, long time) … Continue Reading
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
Jo and Sandy’s Humanist Wedding at Howie’s Waterloo Place
I’ve never had a thank you card quite like this one: it’s a Smilebox, sent to me by Sandy and Jo whose wedding last November was a total hoot. You can see it here and listen to it too: the soundtrack is the song they chose to have all their guests sing to them during … Continue Reading
