As I often say when I’m explaining what makes a Humanist ceremony different, Humanists believe that there are more things that unite humanity, rather than divide it, and the greatest of these is love.

Katy & Beej’s Humanist Wedding at The Atrium Restaurant in Edinburgh
Everyone but everyone wants to get married at 2.30 pm on a Saturday afternoon, which means of course that the venues have you over a barrel and can charge a premium. I think more people should copy Katy and Beej’s example and marry on a Monday, when even a top restaurant, like The Atrium will … Continue Reading

The beach is near Tyninghame in East Lothian and it’s a very romantic spot. The cabin is absolutely simple but quite magical. When I arrived, Mike was still getting dressed. … Continue Reading

Luckily they got in touch, and … Continue Reading
