Congratulations, you are engaged!
Make your special day one to remember
Choosing us gives you the freedom to put your personal stamp on one of the biggest days of your life.
Humanist weddings have been legal in Scotland (and have had legal status everywhere else in the world) since 2005 and have grown in popularity ever since.
As Celebrants are authorised by the Registrar General to conduct legal weddings and civil partnerships. We would also be delighted to conduct a non-legal Wedding Celebration for couples who for example, married abroad and now want to have a ceremony that includes their family and friends. Similarly many couples who have been happily married for some time can celebrate the strength of their union with a Renewal of Vows ceremony.
In keeping with the Humanist ethos, a Humanist wedding is not a religious ceremony and is ideal for couples who are not themselves of a particular faith. At the same time, because the ceremony is based on you and your relationship, there is nothing in it that will make those of any religious faith feel uncomfortable. As such this type of ceremony is warm, inclusive and welcoming so is a popular choice where each member of the couple is from a different faith and some form of compromise is in order.
There’s no such thing as a typical ceremony as truly each one is unique
What you need to know before your big day
Authorised by the Registrar General to conduct your ceremony anywhere "safe and dignified" gives you great freedom in your choice of location, time and venue.
What this means is if you want a ceremony in your back garden at the stroke of midnight, we can make this happen!
Whatever time or place your ceremony is legal and has exactly the same status as a wedding or civil partnership carried out by a Registrar or religious Celebrant.
Please note that for a legal marriage the Registrars also charge an administration fee (payable to the Registrars) for processing your M10 forms.
