Andrea & Tom ~ Atholl Palace ~ November 2015
As you might know, Humanists don't have a book of rules that says what a marriage should be, understanding that each marriage is as individual as the couple who are making it their own. For Andrea and Tom, marriage means:
Accepting one another, in his or her entirety, as a lover, companion and friend. It means caring and working for each other so that each feels loved, safe and secure.
It means to give your support, patience, and try your best to be understanding (not always easy!).
Being there for each other when the other needs it the most. Helping with Architect exams!
It means putting a cold face cloth on Tom's head when he has a migraine...or is hungover.
Best of all, this marriage will signify a union of two amazing families, with plenty "character" (Jack's 'irn bur' kilt) and a lot of love to give.
In committing themselves to each other in marriage, Andrea and Tom will share laughter and tears, joy and sadness...they will not belong to each other, but will belong with each other.
They each understand that the commitment they are making today will require hard work and sacrifice on both sides, that their voyage through life together will sometimes be calm and may sometimes be story, but they know now that their love for each other will see them through.

Elizabeth & Brent ~ Lands o' Loyal Hotel, Alyth ~ August 2015
Lizzy and Brent were very, VERY firm about how they did NOT want their wedding to be...and, despite the old world setting, did an amazing job of making the whole occasion their own and of being themselves throughout...hence Brent's total disregard for the idea that the groom should NOT stand there with his hands in his pockets!
There were a lot of laughs in the ceremony, too, and Lizzy and Brent were even brave enough to let their readers not only choose, but write, their own contributions...and let them keep them secret until the ceremony, too!

July Wedding... Summer Flowers
Hi Jane
We just wanted
to say thank you for Saturday. Everyone loved the ceremony (no one more
than us) and we had a wonderful day. Thank you for everything you did
and getting everyone organised before the ceremony.
We are so glad
we asked you to do our ceremony -- it had exactly the laid-back feel
that we wanted. Justin and Ryan are now heading back to the States to
investigate whether they can have a Humanist ceremony there!
I'm just sorry
we didn't get more of a chance to talk afterwards -- I feel like the day
zipped past and so many people I didn't get to talk to as much as I'd
wanted.
Heading off on honeymoon tomorrow. Can't wait!
Many thanks, again, Jane.
Love Mr and Mrs R xx
