As a Humanist Celebrant, I am dedicated to crafting bespoke ceremonies that celebrate life’s most important moments with warmth, respect, and authenticity.
Working under Independent Humanist Ceremonies, I serve all of Scotland, with a special focus on the Highlands and Islands.
Every ceremony is a celebration of your individuality, shaped by your values and the bonds you share with those closest to you.
I can incorporate Scottish Gaelic, Irish Gaelic, and the Scots languages in ceremonies for those who may wish to include this. Dèan conaltradh sa Ghàidhlig ma thogras sibh.
I look forward to hearing from you to discuss your bespoke ceremony.

Your wedding day is a celebration of love, unity, and commitment. Whether you are seeking a legally binding wedding or a symbolic, non-legal ceremony, I offer a flexible, inclusive approach that places your story at the heart of the occasion. Humanist weddings are deeply personal and celebrate each couple’s unique journey together.
From traditional settings to outdoor landscapes, I am legally authorised to conduct humanist marriages throughout Scotland. Together, we will create a ceremony that reflects your personalities, values, and love for one another. For those with a connection to Gaelic heritage, I am pleased to incorporate Scottish Gaelic language and cultural elements into your ceremony.
Welcoming a new life into the world is a joyful occasion, and a Humanist baby naming ceremony offers a warm, personal way to celebrate this new beginning. Unlike religious baptisms, humanist naming ceremonies focus on the family’s values and aspirations for the child, honouring the love and support that surrounds them.
In collaboration with you, I will create a ceremony that is as unique as your child, incorporating readings, wishes, or symbolic gestures that reflect your hopes for their future.
A vow renewal ceremony is a beautiful way to reaffirm your love and commitment to one another, whether you’re celebrating a milestone anniversary or simply wishing to reconnect in a heartfelt way. Humanist vow renewals are designed to honour the journey you’ve taken together, as well as your shared hopes for the future.
Together, we will create a ceremony that reflects the depth of your relationship, your shared memories, and your vision for the years to come.
Memorial ceremonies provide a time for family and friends to come together in remembrance, honouring the life and legacy of a loved one. A humanist memorial service focuses on celebrating their unique contributions and the impact they had on those around them, without religious elements.
As your celebrant, I will work with you to create a ceremony that reflects their life’s journey and values. Whether through shared memories, readings, or music, the service will be a respectful tribute to their memory.
"Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You made our ceremony so special and thoughtful."
"The script you sent is perfect. You have captured exactly what we were wanting. Thank you so much!"
"We were quite nervous at first but you made the whole experience so enjoyable."
"It's brilliant that you can incorporate Gaelic language and cultural elements into ceremonies. That's really important to us"
