Lovely words from a lovely day. Thank you Paul and Tina. 💙 .torphichen. Rounded off by sharing a wee Malibu from their Quaich.
I really do get to marry the best couples. 💙 Thank you Tina and Paul. Always thought I’d need to go on Bullseye to get a tankard… 😆 🎯
Happy September! I was lucky last year that many of my weddings for this month were bathed in sunshine. I will hope that’s the case for my four Sept 2024 . ☀️ 💒 Another three new venues to tick off also. ✅
They start TODAY! Looking forward to seeing Paul and Tina later for their intimate ceremony .torphichen in West Lothian.
Next Saturday - I’m at .bishopbriggs for the ceremony of Geraldine and Donald.
The following Saturday - a nice local one for me in Motherwell for Julie-Anne and Colin.
The month rounds off with a long awaited return to one of my favourites - in Giffnock for Nicole and Darren on the 28th.
All that ahead of an extremely hectic October and my busiest month of ceremonies to date! 😮💨

🚨 I AM A FINALIST!! 🚨
Wow. I am delighted and a little overwhelmed to be saying that I am shortlisted in the Your Scottish Wedding Awards 2024 Celebrant of the Year category!
To get this in only my second full year in the job is something I’m very proud of. 🩵
To all of my couples from last August to this July who took the time to vote for me, I cannot thank you enough. ❤️ Knowing this has come from the people you made a difference to means the world.
The big night is DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Glasgow Central on Nov 10th. Will be a great night! And let’s just see what happens eh?
Congrats also to my Humanist Celebrants with Fuze Ceremonies pals George McLean Fuze Ceremonies and Oskar Gilchrist-Grodnicki for their nods too!
Every one of the wedding ceremonies I’m privileged to conduct is special, unique and memorable. But none can compare to the one that took place two years ago today. Happy anniversary Mrs E. 💜 👰♀️ 🤵♂️ 💍
20.08.22 Bowfield Hotel & Spa
Holiday time! A hugely busy first half of the year between writing and conducting ceremonies and the day job. Time for 10 days R&R and ☀️ with Mrs E in Cyprus. 🇨🇾 ✈️
All set for another 19 ceremonies between now and the end of the year once I’m back! 💒
I will respond to any enquiries on my return from Mon 26th. 📧
And if you think you’ll be holiday spammed between now and then, you would be absolutely correct… 😆 🍹 🏝️ 🤳
Just before I go ‘out of office’, a quick mention for .francis.96 & who said after we met last month at the Alona Hotel wedding show! They know that a trip to is never a chore for me. 😉
Thank you both! Countdown is on until next November!
🚨 NOT JUST WEDDINGS! 🚨
Weddings are of course a massive part of what I do . However, I offer different types of ceremony too!
💒 Affirmation Ceremonies: perhaps you were legally married abroad, are a foreign national who wants to travel to Scotland or have been legally married by a different belief body? Why not arrange a big celebration in front of your friends and family with symbolic gestures and guest contributions? We can do all aspects of a humanist wedding except the legal paperwork and declarations. ✅
💍 Renewal of Vows: how about affirming your commitment to your partner after 10, 20, 40 or even just one year? Renew your vows with a fun filled and heartfelt ceremony - perhaps one that differs from your original wedding all those years ago.
👶🏼 Baby Naming: welcome your new bundle into the world with a light and loving ceremony featuring symbolic gestures, parent and guide parent promises and a commitment to raise your new son or daughter with humanist values at heart. 🩷🩵
🤍 Funerals: Celebrate the life of a loved one to the full and share with guests the impact they had on their family, friends and the wider community. A ceremony that is personal and fitting and is entirely about the person themselves.

Thank you so much for the kind words, Mary & Alex. 🥰

A double planning session tonight hotel tonight with & along with &
I met both of these couples here at the January 2023 wedding fayre. So much has happened and so much has changed in that time for us all! It’s amazing to think that those weddings that were 21 months away at the time are now coming up! And here we are putting all the pieces together to make them the most perfect days.
Great to see you all again!
What a lovely, thoughtful gift to receive from my couple yesterday - Mary & Alex. 🥃
Thank you both so much! I really do get to work with the most fantastic people. Now to decide what tipple goes inside. 🤔 😁
Great day
Delighted to welcome & Scott to my 2025 diary! We had an excellent coffee and blether and their mind was made up that night that they were saying !
Looking forward to adding another new venue to my list too - the historic in Glasgow’s West End. Driven past many times so will be good to stop by!
Thanks guys! Here’s to next October. 🥂 💒
A new month is on the horizon! And it’s a bit of a quieter one for me for ceremonies - as I’ll be spending two weeks of it in the ☀️!
But before that, I return to this Saturday to the to marry Mary and Alex - first of FOUR weddings to come there before the end of the year!
Next Saturday, I’m looking forward to my first visit to on the banks of Loch Ard in Stirlingshire where Hayley & Chris will say ‘I Do’ in an intimate ceremony.
Then, straight back into it after hols and a return to historic in Glasgow for the ceremony of Pauline and Thomas.
Looking forward to each of these weddings but also can’t wait for a switch off after a very busy few months!
Planning meetings aplenty this week, as I hook up with my October couples before heading off on hols next month. 😎
It was Nakita and James’ turn today! Shaping up to be a top class ceremony in 81 days time!
Each wedding is bespoke to every individual couple. Which is why these sessions are not only fun but important so we can get everything exactly right. 👌🏼
Planning day today! Lovely catch up with & where in 118 days time, they’ll be saying ‘I Do’ with me! 💒 💍
A brilliant couple who complement each other perfectly. Lots of plans for their ceremony - many of which will involve friends and family. And a fun story involving walks, dogs and failed attempts at hillwalking. 😆 Can’t wait to get started on their ceremony script. ✍🏼
If you would like a bespoke, personalised, relaxed, heartfelt and fun wedding ceremony, drop me a line and we can start chatting!

Got a lovely visit from the recently married Mr and Mrs Gallacher today. A lovely thank you card and the most DEVINE loaded brownies courtesy of .bakes. Utterly indulgent! 🤤 highly recommend if you’ve got a sweet tooth. 😋
Thanks guys! So thoughtful. My future couples are free to do the same… 🤣🤣
Whenever a couple enquire about booking me for their ceremony, I always insist that the chats are no obligation, and that it’s important to choose the right person to officiate your wedding.
Imagine my delight then when & Bradley confirmed their booking literally five minutes after we spoke! ☺️
Thanks so much guys. A lovely way to round off my May ceremonies next year and another new venue to discover - 💒 💍
What a special, special day on Saturday, expertly captured by N White Photography. Congratulations to the new Mr & Mrs Thomson! 🥂 💍 💜
Every celebrant has to start somewhere. Two years ago today, the journey commenced . The buzz is something I’ll never forget. Forever grateful to & Andy for taking a chance on a newbie. 🩵💜
Now here we are two years and 44 ceremonies later! 😯
Happy second anniversary, guys. 💒 🍾 💍
Another addition into the 2025 diary! Thanks to & .gibson.3994 for inviting me to conduct their ceremony next August. Look forward to it, guys!
Lauren & Nick - 22.6.24
💒 What a stunning wedding at - definitely one of my new favourite venues. Rustic, quaint and peaceful.
🗣️ A gorgeous ceremony featuring the most perfect personal vows written and read aloud to each other.

The Gallachers est: 6.7.24
What a day. What a venue. What a couple. 💚
Another date added to my 2025 diary. Caroline & Annett will be having their big day at one of my favourites - Loch Lomond.
Thank you girls! My third ceremony there and I’m hoping for a hat trick of skies like the one below. 😎
Birthday ceremony done. Out for a terrific birthday meal with Mrs E. 🍽️ 🥩 Should be going to see Stevie Nicks at the Hydro but she’s decided to call off with injury… 😩 Guess we’ll just need to find another pub instead… 🍺 😆
Into the 2nd half of 2024 already! Here’s hoping the weather picks up for July eh?
I’m all set for another half dozen this month - five of them in new venues!
It kicks off on Friday when Katie & Jordan say their “I Do’s” at in the heart of Glasgow City Centre.
Then on Saturday, I’ll be spending my birthday marrying my good friend Ryan and his fiancée Danielle at !
Next Saturday, it’s all about Chloe & Stuart and their big day down in Ayrshire
On Friday 19th, I’m back up at the Bonnie Banks for Caitlin and Josh’s ceremony before a return to beautiful on Wed 24th for the wedding of Monique & Stuart.
Finally, I’m excited for a first visit to .co.uk down in Laggan for the ceremony of Abby and Martin.
Each of these couples have been absolutely tremendous to work with and I am honoured to be able to make them husband and wife. Here’s to some truly memorable days, guys!
