Gillian and Neil’s Humanist Wedding at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh
On a good day, there are few more beautiful settings for an outdoor wedding than among the Redwood trees at the Botanics. And these photos, by Kerry & Nick Steyn, capture it brilliantly. Gillian and Neil were in two minds about what kind of wedding to have: something small and discreet or a big celebration … Continue Reading

Joanne & Alan’s Humanist Wedding at The Caves in Edinburgh
Most people agree that marriage these days is an equal partnership between a woman and a man, but traditions die hard, and every so often a bride tells me that father wants to ‘give her away’ to her groom. This can be tricky, but Joanne came up with a clever solution that respected her dad, … Continue Reading

Katy & Beej’s Humanist Wedding at The Atrium Restaurant in Edinburgh

Unlike most couples, they chose to arrive together, which … Continue Reading

Sharon & Marc’s Humanist Wedding at The Caves in Edinburgh
I love this photograph, which looks more like a rock concert than a wedding. It looks very dramatic, although Marc & Sharon’s wedding was actually very low key, intimate and affeccting. When I arrived, looking for the groom, I found him with his bride and their three children, Yasmine, Zak & one year old Dylan, … Continue Reading
