I love the festival: it’s a great time for bumping into old friends, and couples I’ve married. A few nights back, coming home from Fringe by the Sea, I met Mark who I married to Lorna down at Cardrona in 2012, but then as Mrs. M and I left the Book Festival we met Tim … Continue Reading

Catherine and Alastair’s Humanist Wedding at The Scottish Cafe at The National Galleries of Scotland
Catherine and Alastair’s story proves that distance is no obstacle to romance. They fell in love even before they met in person for the first time, when Catherine flew over from Quebec, and Alastair gave her a whirlwind tour that took in gigs and ceilidhs, family meetings and the very special Isle of … Continue Reading
