I first met Andy and Yvonne last October, and over the intervening months, they’ve had a lot of fun doing their homework. When they sent me their ceremony today, they included a surprise ending, which I’ve printed below. I don’t know why it should be any less embarrassing for me to post this on my … Continue Reading
I remember when Graham and Amy first got in touch. They were working on a project in rural India at the time, and they got in touch because they’d seen I was the Humanist contact at The University of Edinburgh where they’d both studied, and first met playing Frisbee on the meadows on a cold, rainy … Continue Reading
I remember the day I first met Fiona. It was about four or five years ago, cold, wet, and windy. My mate Bill and I were just coming down the ridge line of Scald Law in the Pentland Hills, when we met Fiona on the way up. The reason I remember it so well is … Continue Reading

Louise remembers how she waited a whole year and seventeen days for Chazz to say he loved her, (but … Continue Reading
Sometimes even before I meet a couple, I get a sense that they’re going to be a lot of fun to work with, and so it was with Becka and Alex. Back in March, they sent me an email that said, “Hiya, We saw you in action at Kate and Mark’s wedding out of town by a lake … Continue Reading
