Weddings

Every life, every relationship, is unique, and should be celebrated as such!

Non religious, semi religions and religious celebrations are warmly welcomed here – at the Open Sanctuary, we embrace and respect all beliefs with an open heart that fosters simplicity, peace, and love. I am committed to working with integrity, love, and acceptance, crafting a personalised ceremony that mirrors your unique wishes, values, and beliefs.

Whether you are celebrating a marriage or civil partnership, wish to renew your vows, or want to make a public declaration of commitment to each other, I can help you create your perfect day which reflects and honours how you choose to live your life together.

My role is to work with you to create meaningful, heartfelt ceremonies which truly reflect your personal values and beliefs. All my ceremonies are lovingly crafted with couple at the heart, your service can be non-religious, religious, spiritual or a mixture, the tone can be formal or relaxed whichever suits your needs. 

My authority comes under the auspices of Open Sanctuary who trained me, and as such I am authorised by the Registrar General For Scotland to carry out legal weddings. I promise to work in integrity, love and acceptance and write a bespoke ceremony which reflects your wishes, values, and beliefs.

Please check my terms and conditions here, and get in touch to discuss your thoughts, dreams, and wishes and explore the possibilities.

Love and laughter,

We simply cannot thank you enough for delivering the most personal, heartfelt and sincere ceremony for us. You spoke as though you had known us for years, and spoke the words in a way we wanted them to sound – you sounded like ‘us’.  We enjoyed every second of the ceremony, and our families have complimented your professionalism and delivery of our special story and words. I’m sure you noticed there were lots of happy tears on the day!
It was truly wonderful to work with you and we will recommend you to anyone and everyone who will listen. It was such a positive and exciting experience to create such a personal ceremony for our small and intimate day.
