Had the absolute privilege to conduct the marriage ceremony for Steph and Robbie yesterday and what a gorgeous couple they make.
Their boys helped with the handfasting using Granite Tartan and a piece of material from Steph's gorgeous dress and did a wonderful job.
They also drank from the quaich sharing both Irn Bru and Gin with both their dads.
Steph's mum delivered a beautiful reading which she ended with giving the newly weds some wonderful advice.
There was much laughter throughout the ceremony and their guests were amazing. I know the celebration afterwards would have been fun as they were all up for making wonderful memories for Steph and Robbie.
Both Steph and Robbie read their vows to each other and neither knew what the other had written. It was so emotional for everyone and I admit to being emotional too.
Wishing you both all the happiness in life. Thanks for choosing me as your celebrant x💕

Yesterday, Friday 26th July, I drove from Fife to Dumfries, a two and a half hour drive, to marry this gorgeous couple Sally and Stewart.
I had my leggings, shirt and cons on for the journey and was delighted to find the perfect room in the church where I changed into my suit and did my make up an hour before the ceremony was due to start.
Crichton Church looked amazing on this sunny day, flowers were gorgeous and the crowd was gathering outside to catch a glimpse of the wedding party.
Stewart and his best man, who was his dad Roddy, and his four groomsmen were all looking handsome in their kilts standing at the alter awaiting the bride.
Sally's mum Mary, two flower girls and page boy along with her four bridesmaids entered first and they were followed by Sally and her dad Stuart who were piped down the aisle.
After the hugs and handshakes, the ceremony which was filled with love, laughter, a few tears and the very excited golden retriever Frankie got under way.
Eilidh, Stewart's sister stepped forward to say a few words followed by the reading of the wonderful poem, "The Giraffe and the Monkey" by Daniel Thompson.
Stewart and Sally read their vows to each other which brought both tears and laughter from themselves and their guests. The ancient Celtic tradition of handfasting took place using binding to represent both families, the Ancient Hunting Tartan and a piece from Sally's gorgeous wedding dress.
Frankie, their golden retriever came bounding down the aisle to deliver the rings and he was immediately loved by all.
I enjoyed meeting with both Sally and Stewart, getting to know them and writing their ceremony. It really was a privilege.
My colleague Graham was in attendance, as at Celebrate People we believe in ongoing professional development and afterwards we discussed the ceremony over a coffee and I'm delighted to say that Graham gave me full marks and is even going to borrow a few ideas from me. This is what I love about our group, we belie
Conducted the marriage ceremony of this beautiful couple Andy and Pauline. The sun was shining and everyone looked fabulous. Pauline and her daughters, who were bridesmaids, were simply stunning and Andy and his sons looked so handsome in their outfits.
Each of their children were involved in the handfasting which joined both families together.
The guests were so involved in the ceremony and there was much ad-libbing. I'm sure you all had a fabulous time celebrating. It was an absolute pleasure getting to know you both and hopefully we'll bump into each other again whether out walking the dogs or in our local shop. Crazy that we live in the same wee village and have never met before you booked me!
Thanks for trusting me with your ceremony, I loved every second. Wishing you both much luck, love and happiness. x💕

Had the most amazing day in Edinburgh yesterday conducting the marriage of Melissa and Nathan. What an absolutely gorgeous venue and the weather was amazing.
Melissa you were simply stunning and Nathan scrubbed up well. Apologies to Nathan's identical twin brother whom I gave a warm hug to and asked him how he was feeling! Two peas in a pod for sure. I'm blaming Nathan's dad Clark for this mistake.😂
The readings, "Touched by an Angel" by Maya Angelou read by Melissa's mum and "These I can Promise" by Mark Twain read by Nathan's dad were perfect.
We had handfasting during the vows, which you both wrote yourselves, using the family tartans, your knot was perfection.
Both families joined the happy couple in drinking whisky from the quaich and The Edinburgh String Ensemble played beautifully throughout the ceremony. There was much laughter throughout the ceremony and some happy tears too.
The sun shining in the corner of the yard through the birch trees at the legal signing was just the icing on the cake.
Nathan and Melissa, it was a pleasure getting to meet and know you both. I enjoyed every second of yesterday and I wish you all the happiness in life.

Had an amazing time working with the new Mr&Mrs Gray. Loved getting to know and telling your story. Laughed so much with you both. I got to know Pamela when I taught her son Robbie at South Parks Primary and was beyond delighted when both Pamela and Kev asked me to conduct their ceremony which was on Saturday 16th September.
Pamela, you were absolutely stunning and Kev you scrubbed up well, you're an absolute gentleman.
Wishing you both all the happiness in life.

Had an amazing time conducting the marriage ceremony of the gorgeous Emma and Chris. Emma you were stunning and Chris was so handsome in his kilt. Loved getting to spend time with you both and hearing your story, loved every second.
Michael's reading of the poem brought tears to my eyes, he was so emotional. Both your families are so close and it's a small world as Emma's mum was my HT when I was a teacher at South Parks Primary, Emma's gran was my twin daughter's nursery teacher and I used to be in a drama group with her grandad, and boy did we used to laugh. It was lovely to see everyone and what a fabulous day it was. Perfect weather for a perfect couple. Wishing the new Mr and Mrs Hodgson all the happiness in life and thanks for trusting me with your ceremony.
