WEDDINGS - THISTLE CEREMONIES

WEDDINGS


"Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies." - Aristole


One of the greatest milestones in life is when two people choose to marry. The wedding ceremony is designed to formalise the arrangement legally, and to celebrate the day that couples pledge their commitment and trust in each other.


Our humanist celebrants are authorised to conduct legal marriages in Scotland, and are trained to deliver the best ceremony possible from detailing how two people following different life paths meet, and continue their journey together.


As well as telling your story, our celebrants offer a wide ranging choice of symbolic gestures and blessings from all around the world. If you desire something different we can write a symbolic gesture unique to you as a couple.


Let us write you an amazing, magical script based on your personalities, one that will carry you forwards in to the next step of your journey together.


There are times when you may only require a non-legal wedding - we can also help with these too!
