Carolyn and Fraser ceremony was held in the most magical, Christmassy setting at JA Mar Hall Scotland surrounded by their closest friends and family. ✨🎄

Their little ones, Freya and Albie, were absolute superstars all day. Freya even had everyone laughing with her brilliant jokes, and both kids proudly showed off their own handfast bands — Freya's inspired by her love of Harry Potter, and Albie's by his passion for cars. 🪄🚗

It was such a beautifully emotional, relaxed celebration from start to finish. Truly a day filled with love, laughter, and all the festive sparkle. ❤️✨

Wonderful to run into my old pals Steven and Emily who I married in 2021 and who are expecting their third child in the new year! Can't wait to see Suzanne Lister Photography pics soon.

Sam & Chris tied the knot in the beautiful, historic Custom House, Leith — surrounded by their closest family and friends in a relaxed and heartfelt ceremony.
Their loved ones joined in a touching moment, warming the wedding bands with their hands and hearts, before Sam and Chris shared their vows while holding an oathing stone — an ancient Celtic tradition that quite literally sets their promises in stone.
Even the autumn sun made a special appearance between the showers — a perfect touch for such a joyful day. ☀️🍂
Here’s to a lifetime of love, laughter, and light for this wonderful couple. 🥂💖

Lovely to meet Lauren Stirling Photography

No worries if you choose a
Humanist Society Scotland registered celebrant! We are the only permanently authorised celebrants to conduct legal humanist marriages in Scotland (having been awarded prescribed status by the Scottish Parliament), so you couldn’t be in safer hands for your wedding.

The reality, according to those with close knowledge, is that some couples who believe they have tied the knot are not legally married.

Yesterday was a day full of love, laughter, and happy tears as Christina and Mikey tied the knot surrounded by their wonderful family and friends at Royal Musselburgh Golf Club! Mikey knew from the very first moment he laid eyes on Christina as teenagers that she was the one. Life had other plans back then, and they went their separate ways…

In 2008, Christina finally saw past his cheeky grin and into the heart of the man he truly is. From there, their story unfolded beautifully—Mikey stepping into the role of proud dad to her two boys, Josh and Jay and together welcoming their gorgeous daughter Ava to complete their family.
Recently, Mikey asked the big question—and yesterday, they finally said “I do”! Now officially Mr. & Mrs. Smith… and what a celebration it was! 🎉✨
Here’s to love, laughter, and happily ever after. 🥂💕

Looking forward to seeing David of Louden Photography pics soon.

What a magical day it was as Alice & Allan tied the knot in the beautiful Glencorse House Old Kirk, surrounded by love and laughter.

From the ancient symbolism of the hand-fasting ritual, to sharing their first drink as a married couple from a traditional quaich, every moment was steeped in meaning—and a whole lot of personality!

Three carefully chosen readings brought tears as well as smiles, each one capturing their great sense of humour. Every guest left smiling (and maybe a little misty-eyed), knowing they’d witnessed something truly special.

Here’s to Alice & Allan—may your life together be filled with the same joy, love, and quirky spirit your wedding day radiated! 🥂💖

Glorious day at Dundas Castle for the gorgeous Shabnam and Navid. A touching memorial candle, a wedding band warming, wonderful handfast and a quaich and no..... it wasn't filled with whisky.. No no! it was of course filled with honey in the marrying of Scottish and Persian traditions and yes pinkies were dipped and shared .... Navid even burst into song at one point! AND just to prove every Humanist Society Scotland Ceremonies wedding is unique - there was a surprise flypast TWICE (who knew about Navid's love of flying??) - giving the drone operator a hairy fit.

Fantastic throughout and a joy to be there with Shabnam and Navid's wonderful and colourful families and friends as well as Elliot Caunce Wedding Photography Rory of RHB Media and John The Pickled Piper.
