Gavin and Sarah are VERY fit! They’ve done the New York half-marathon and followed the Tour de France. They run, they swim, and they climb hills, so it made sense that Gavin proposed to Sarah by the side of the banks of the Union Canal where they first walked, ran, cycled, and … Continue Reading

Ashley and Jamie’s Humanist Wedding at Balbirnie House
Are you sitting comfortably? Then I’ll begin. Storytelling lies at the heart of my approach to weddings, and I love it when couples take up my suggestion that they invite their friends and family to help deliver their story. Jamie and Ashley did that brilliantly. Every single member of their Wedding … Continue Reading

Chloë and Tim’s Humanist Wedding in Dunbar’s Close Garden
“Thank you so much for helping us make this year the most special year in our lives!” said Chloë and Tim

Kirsty and Dean’s Humanist Wedding at The Strawberry Barn, Dunbar
Kirsty and Dean were very nearly childhood sweethearts. They went to the same primary and secondary schools, but it wasn’t until 5th year that Dean finally made it onto Kirsty’s radar when they bonded over their shared love of music. Dean was always buying the latest CDs from bands like the View, Pigeon Detectives, and Maximo Park, and he … Continue Reading
Leanne and Greig’s Humanist Wedding at Carlowrie Castle
Leanne and Greig’s story is a very modern fairytale, so – if you’re sitting comfortably – I’ll begin… Greig first proposed to Leanne just three months after they met. OK, it was in Munich, and it was during Oktoberfest, so it’s no big surprise that once they’d both sobered up, they agreed to put their … Continue Reading

Grant and Natasa’s Humanist Wedding at The Secret Herb Garden
We continue to receive nothing but compliments about just how wonderful our wedding and in particular the ceremony was.
Fiona and Gavin’s Humanist Wedding at the Ghillie Dhu
Not every love story is romantic, but I think that’s a good thing! Fiona and Gavin first met in the thoroughly unromantic setting of the staff base of a Manchester hospital. Their next encounter was at a staff meal. Fiona was the only girl to finish hers, which prompted Gavin to say, “I love a girl with a … Continue Reading

Helen and Sarah’s Humanist Wedding at Ravensheugh Log Cabin
Helen & Sarah described their meeting as ‘a modern Blind Date turned Love Story’. But it wasn’t fate that brought them together, it was Pink dot com! Their first date in the Lakes didn’t go quite to plan. The exhaust fell off Helen’s car, so their first encounter was in … Continue Reading

Andrew and Lisa’s Humanist Wedding at Broxmouth Park
Lisa and Andrew ‘reversed into marriage’, as I like to say, or in other words, they’d already created their family long before they ‘put a ring on it’, so their outdoor ceremony at the stately Broxmouth Park was a very relaxed and family-friendly affair. In fact the first thing they asked me to do was … Continue Reading

Ross and Rachael’s Humanist wedding at The Balmoral Hotel
Music is a big part of Rachael and Ross’s life. They first met in August 2011 when they boarded a bus with mutual friends to go to the music festival Creamfields, where they danced like idiots to Calvin Harris, (once Rachael had woken up!) So perhaps it wasn’t that much of a … Continue Reading
