On Saturday I had the pleasure of marrying Laura and Rhys at the always lovely Brig o’Doon.

We had a very personal Scottish handfast, with Laura’s cousin Ross, assisting with the reading. And they reinforced their bond by having a traditional Celtic Quaigh Ceremony, where we were joined by both dads William and Stephen, who accepted each half of our happy couple as one of their own.

Congratulations Mr & Mrs Ambler! 💕

On Sunday, I had the pleasure of marrying 2 friends and former colleagues Tina and Lauren at Dalziel Park Hotel. On a very emotional day, both looked amazing, as they shared personal vows, and had a beautiful reading by their daughter Becca. They reinforced their relationship by having a traditional Scottish hand-fasting, with additional ribbons being added by their son and best man Kris (Who also did a beautiful speech at the dinner!) and their daughter and Maid of Honour Becca.

Some lovely words from the new Mr & Mrs Edwards 💕

We just want to say a massive thank you to Craig Aikman. We clicked with Craig instantly at our first meeting and knew then that we wanted him to conduct our wedding. On the day, he made everyone feel so welcome and comfortable. We wanted a lighthearted, funny , laid back ceremony and nothing to serious to which Craig delivered. We had so many compliments from friends and family to say how amazing he was. We will most certainly recommend Craig to everyone in the future. Thanks again for such a great day! Love Emma and William x

Dear Craig,

I hope to express our deep gratitude to you for the creative suggestions and wonderful hosting you provided at our wedding through this email. Because of your professionalism and hard work, our wedding became unforgettable, creating a pleasant and romantic atmosphere for us and our guests. Under your guidance, the entire wedding ceremony flowed in an orderly manner, both solemn and romantic, allowing us and our guests to enjoy it.

We are also impressed by your meticulous preparation before the wedding. You not only communicated with us many times to understand our expectations and needs in detail, but also provided us with many valuable suggestions and assistance. In every aspect of the wedding, you have devoted great enthusiasm and focus, which has deeply touched us and will be the most precious time in our lives.

We have specially attached the photos

I wish you success in your career and happiness in your life. We have always loved Glasgow and welcome you to Shenzhen, China.
Sincerely,

Ye Yuan(LEO) and Shicong Xie(VITA)
