Humanist
Scotland is one of only six countries in the world where Humanist marriage ceremonies are legal (the others are Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Norway and certain states of the USA). Humanist weddings have the same legal status as civil and religious weddings as long as they are conducted by an HSS Celebrant, who has been authorised by the Registrar General of Scotland. Same sex couples often choose to celebrate their commitment by having a Humanist ceremony, though these are not yet legally recognised.

‘I absolutely LOVE conducting weddings! I feel very lucky to be a part of such a special day. I do my very best to help the couple to have the ceremony they really want, making it as unique and personal to them as possible. We will meet up, if practical, and spend as much time as is necessary to sort out the details, to make this meaningful and special for them. I will guide and help with the choices of music, readings, vows, etc. as is required.’ Annie Loughlin
