As interfaith ministers and wedding celebrants we are authorised to hold legal same sex marriage, handfastings and civil partnerships in Scotland.
We can also hold any relationship related ceremonies such as non legal ceremonies of commitment or betrothal or vow renewal.
If you were civilly partnered previously in the UK and wish to convert your civil partnership to a marriage we can guide you with what to do.
We feel that whether your ceremony is about your union as a man and a man, a woman and a woman, or a man and a woman, what’s important is that the ceremony is a celebration of you as a couple.
We wholeheartedly greet enquiries from all couples who would like to have a ceremony based on equality, respect and love.
We intend for you to feel understood, safe and supported as you prepare to take this big step and assure you of our commitment to answering your questions and responding to your needs with sensitivity and efficiency.
Scotland offers you a wealth of wonderful locations for your ceremony from castles and hotels, to beaches and loch-sides - also unusual locations like a lighthouse or a boat on a loch. We're very happy to offer ideas regarding where to have your ceremony. Angie is based in rural Northern Scotland and is willing to travel to hold your ceremony; as is Jane who is based near Edinburgh and Glasgow.
Though not full time wedding planners, depending on our other commitments we can sometimes offer some organisational ideas and support with your preparations - please ask if you feel you would like this kind of additional support.
Even though we would want to help you, please note that if your country of nationality does not recognise legal same sex union then unfortunately you will not be able to obtain the necessary visas to enter the UK to legally marry here.
