My thanks to Offbeat Bride, photographer Ingrid Murs and of course to Fiona & Tom for making this post very easy… Tom and Fiona chose to marry at Kirknewton Stables, a popular venue for people who like to do things their own way: and they really did, in every sense. The bridesmaids helped make all the pom-poms, […]

Donna & Jonas’s Humanist Wedding at Kirknewton Stables

Fiona and Steve’s Humanist Wedding at Jupiter Artland
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 […]

Ian & Gill’s Humanist Wedding at Kaim Park Hotel
When Ian and Gill finally got back to the “real world” after their wonderful honeymoon in St Lucia they sent me this message to say thanks… We had the most amazing day, our ceremony was just as we had wanted it to be, personal to us, very moving and also at times very entertaining!

Keri & Erik’s Humanist Wedding at Harburn House
People are coming from all over the world to have a humanist wedding in Scotland and I’ve married Australians and Americans and Danes and Germans but Keri and Erik’s Mexican wedding was a first. They had to change their plans at the last minute so it was all done in a bit of a rush, […]

Kelly & Nick’s Humanist Wedding at Harburn House
This was a great day! I first met Kelly and her mum about a year before the wedding and I knew from the start that she was the kind of person who’d put her heart and soul into creating a truly memorable ceremony. I met Nick a few months later and I still can’t believe […]
