Camille & Virginia’s wedding wasn’t the first outdoor wedding that I’ve conducted half in French and half in English, and it wasn’t the first I’ve done in the Botanics either, but it was the first I’ve done under threat of a thunder storm. Unlike most couples, they chose to arrive together, which was a nice … 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

Doug & Beth’s Humanist Wedding at The Bruntsfield Hotel
A lovely portrait of the beautiful bride from photographer and family friend, Ian Cameron. One of the reasons Doug gave for loving her was that, “Beth is the most gorgeous girl in the world and she still won’t take his word for it.” Maybe she will now. Doug’s sister, Jenny gave us a reading from … Continue Reading

Anita & Isra really embraced my suggestion that they involve as many of their friends as possible.
Anita & Isra’s Humanist Wedding at Redhall Walled Garden in Edinburgh
One of the many great things about their wedding was that they involved so many friends in so many ways.
Chiara & Tim’s Humanist Wedding at the National Trust for Scotland’s House in Charlotte Square
Tim & Chiara’s ceremony was great fun, not just because it was so well-written and moving but because at least half the guests were Italian and in the way that only Italians can, they wore their most glamourous fur coats and smoked with impunity! They sent me this lovely card, (Made on a Mac) with … Continue Reading
Charlotte & Graeme’s Humanist Wedding at The Royal College of Physicians
It’s taken me far too long to realise that there was a very important element missing from this blog – the voices of the couples themselves. Graeme and Charlotte’s was the very first wedding I conducted this year, in the mists and fogs of January and it was a lovely tale of two kids who’d … Continue Reading
Deborah & Brian’s Humanist Wedding at Edinburgh Castle

Back in freezing cold, wet January, Deborah and Brian chose to come here all the way from Cheshire and Connecticut to marry in the historic setting of … Continue Reading
