Gay Marriage Scotland Testimonials

"First of all, we just want to say that we must have been one of the more difficult couples to work with. We’re both super busy with work, are procrastinators of the highest order, indecisive, but also wanted a highly tailored wedding ceremony. We were THAT couple who were given a very clear to do list for each meeting and call but who turned up/called in having done none of it!

My wife’s father unbelievably sadly passed away a little over a month before our wedding, which resulted in us being out of contact until less than 2 weeks before the wedding with the ceremony still to finalise, and being unsure of whether we were going to go ahead with the wedding during that time. Despite all of this Angie stayed consistently kind and supportive, and without her help organising us we honestly don’t think our day would have gone ahead...or at least certainly not as it did. 

We had some rough ideas of what we wanted for the day, but other than that we really didn’t know. Angie picked up on us as a couple really well from the first meeting, and all of her suggestions and options for our ceremony were spot on. Thanks to her guidance and much work, the ceremony we created together for our day was unique, totally us, and so perfect for what we wanted. 

On the day itself, Angie was incredibly welcoming to all our guests, and delivered our ceremony perfectly. Almost all of our guests commented on how much they loved our choice of celebrant, and the ceremony she delivered. The ceremony was our favourite part of the day, and all our guests said the same; with our guests particularly loving the handfasting section in the woods. 

Honestly, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Angie to anyone getting married, no matter the age, gender, style of ceremony, religious or spiritual beliefs. Thank you Angie from the bottom of our hearts for making our day everything it was."

"From the moment we contacted Angie, we had nothing but the best and most professional care and attention to detail, combined with the love and personal attention Angie paid to us. We had an Idea in mind and Angie listened carefully, took our idea and then took it to another level.

We can honestly say Angie is the most wonderful, giving person and she made our wedding day the ultimate success it ended up being, communication, explanation and support were second to none - the ultimate professional but always with guiding hand to steer us clear and comfort our nerves on the day. In short this is just the most wonderful lady.

She took the pressure off us, in our ceremony worries, and won the hearts and minds of all the attendees of our wedding. Our guests were simply blown away by the content of the ceremony. We were also blown away to find that she had listened and understood what we were aiming for. 

Our wedding would have not been the same without her. This is one lady that will always have a special place in our hearts . With Love Always Angie"

"We could not have asked for anyone better to create our wedding. Angie was so lovely and patient with us and answered all of our millions of questions. She put us both at ease with her wonderfully warm personality. Her husband Will, who conducted our ceremony was equally as lovely. All together they both made our wedding, so warm and full of love. Our guests even commented on how wonderful our celebrant was. 

They say that they feel privileged to have been a part of our special day, but we definitely feel it was the other way round. We feel privileged to have found 2 people so wonderful to guide us and start us off on our next chapter."

"Angie conducted a renewal of vows for us in Inverness. We had a sort of traditional Scottish wedding with a ceremony including a hand binding and jumping the broom taking the leap into a new chapter together. Angie was fantastic and after meeting we knew instantly she was the one we wanted to conduct our ceremony, she then tailored the ceremony around us as a couple and even on the rehearsal the night before she had that calming approach giving us reassurance and advising where required. This was a very special day for us and Angie just made it perfect with the beautiful words and experience she has - the ceremony was absolutely perfect. We cannot speak highly enough of this lady and if we ever decide to do this again we would go back in a second. Highly recommend to anyone wishing to be married or renewing the wedding vows."

“We just wanted to say a huge thank you from both of us for taking us on this journey of ours and guiding us and supporting us all the way. The church ceremony couldn't have been more perfect and you really did do an awesome job!! So thank you so much for everything! The force is with us always!!!”

“We just want to thank you SO VERY MUCH for celebrating our wedding! The wedding was so lovely!  Despite the running around and craziness leading up to the wedding, the wedding itself was wonderful! Thank you so so very much Angie, everyone commented on what a great job you did and how they could all hear you (even if they couldn’t hear us!) Blessings and gratitude.”

"The feedback we had about the wedding were amazing, my mum who was a bit concerned that it was going to turn into pagan ritual, actually said she had to eat humble pie, she said she was overwhelmed by how personal it was and how true to myself and Ally it was. A lot of people said it was the best wedding ceremony they had attended. I have to admit that both myself and Ally also feel the same way. It reflected us and our beliefs and what is important to us.
 
We really appreciated being able to meet face to face and also have a run through before the big day. It was comforting to know that we could email or phone you if we had any questions. Everything we wanted to happen did and it was exactly the way we wanted it. Your guidance with readings was invaluable too. I have to say the Bunchrew House Hotel were amazing, they were so accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. Also Highland Design who did all the décor were brilliant, even when I was being a nightmare and changing the colours of tablecloths and chair covers at the last minute.
 
We can't thank you enough for the day, it was perfect. We may call on you to do a naming ceremony after the new arrival makes an appearance. Cannot thank you enough for all the help and for making our wedding day an amazing and special day."

"I've known Will and Angie for almost 17 years so it's safe to say I knew what I was getting when I booked our wedding ceremony with them.

I knew when the day came that I got married I would ask Will to be the celebrant, because having witnessed Will and Angie both working, I knew we would have a professional service from two people that really know what they're doing and were committed to our day being as special as it would be had they been planning their own wedding.

As my partner and I were between London and LA a lot of our planning was difficult to fit it, not only to international times but into our busy lives. Angie was great at setting up skype calls, we even spent our vacation in Palm Springs chatting with Will and Angie on skype whilst enjoying a few cocktails!

My wife and I had no idea where to start and Angie helped set up the type of ceremony we were going to have as well as offering ideas about what things we could include in it. She sent a draft ceremony to us to review well in advance. We had a few ideas about what we wanted but to be honest, most of the creative content came from ideas we got from Angie but she is great at picking up on what you are looking for.

As we wanted to have a traditional theme Will even got kitted out in his kilt at our request which really synced with us especially in the photos!

In the months leading up to the wedding Will and Angie made sure to keep us up to date with what we had to do, the schedule for the wedding. I never felt harassed by the communication and I felt really well informed about what we were doing.

As I already knew Will and Angie meeting them wasn't a first for me but it was for my wife. Angie spotted us and stopped to have a chat with us as we drove through the village the day before the wedding and my wife felt really embraced by this welcome. Will being the warm hunk of joy that he is really helped my wife to feel at ease on the day - it helps to carry a flask of whisky in your sporran!

The ceremony itself went just as planned, Will held the space well on the wedding day we really couldn't have asked for anything better. I couldn't recommend more highly for anyone to have these two help celebrate your wedding. I can promise satisfaction and a few laughs along the way. It's a day I will remember for a long time to come and I am so grateful to have shared it with them both."

"We’re left with this amazing glow of happiness and contentment - because last week was *everything* we hoped for and more. We both know how good it all was, and we feel a kind of elation really. We just totally loved everything.

You have a gift in what you do, Angie. You were so conscientious in the preparation, and treated our special day with huge respect and care. And in the execution of the ceremony, you had an amazing calm and presence. And that was a precious gift. You could see how moved Susannah was by the ceremony. She hadn't expected that, she just didn't anticipate it. But the wedding was sacred. It is a moment in time that will always exist. It is a treasure for the rest of our lives, as we move forward to treasure one another. Just to say, we treasure you too, and Will.

The class and kindness you brought to our day was irreplaceable. It will stay with us forever. Angie, we hope you and Will have many many happy days together and once again: thank you. For the service, but even more than that, for yourselves - and your givenness towards us and goodwill."

"Angie, I had the pleasure of filming a ceremony you did and I just wanted to drop a note to you to say how much I enjoyed your ceremony - loved your delivery - you have a very calming delivery which I found perfect for the occasion. I shall add you to my very small list of recommended band of people who I would recommend to wedding couples. Well done on making the couple's day extra special."

"Thank you isn't enough. You made preparing our ceremony easy, and then both fun and serious on the day, just as we wanted. We appreciate everything you did for us."

Angie held a wonderful vow renewal ceremony for us and really took the time to understand who we were beforehand, so that the ceremony included everything we both wanted. She has a sincerity and wisdom that shines through in her words and paid attention to all the little things, as well as the big. We would both highly recommend her.
