Celebrate People
About this business
Celebrate People is a multi-belief organisation based on humanist values. We conduct ceremonies as well as providing support and counselling. Our highly trained and experienced celebrants represent our humanist values of love, kindness, equality, compassion, inclusion and respect. We believe that you two are central and will support you to make sure that your ceremony reflects and expresses what is important to you, your lives, your culture.
We can provide excellent Spanish, French and Italian speaking celebrants to make sure everyone is included.
We simply want you to feel cared for and supported to express your love and commitment in the way that means most to you in that special moment. You may celebrate with family and friends or run away just the two of you. Whatever you choose we are there to help you have your perfect ceremony.
We are there for you from the moment you start to think about what you want for your ceremony all the way through to you leaving for the rest of your celebrations. For most that includes making sure all the legal details are taken care of in the right way and in the right place. If you need guidance on what to include on your ceremony, we are there with many ideas and support to help you choose the best words and elements for you both.
All of our celebrants are brilliant at listening and helping as little or as much as you need them to put what is you want to say into words. For some couples this is easy, others less so. Wherever you fall on that scale we will support you in your ceremony development in preparation for the main event. Symbols and customs can strengthen what you want to say and all of us can include handfasting, drinking from the quaich, sand ceremony and many more.

Myself and husband were married by Gerrie, Douglas Scott. Our only request was to ensure our ceremony was personal and Gerrie done exactly that. Gerrie was a good balance of professional whilst also being calm, welcoming and kept me as the bride calm throughout the planning of our big day. Gerrie made sure our guests were very present and included in the ceremony making it fun and engaging. Gerries bubbly welcoming personality made myself and husband relax as we said the words to become married. Lots of our guests commented on Gerrie and how she set up the day with a positive, exciting and relaxed atmosphere that remained for the day. We couldn’t fault Gerrie and would definitely recommend her ans use her again in any other ceremonies. Thank you Gerrie x
Aileen was fantastic as the celebrant at our wedding. She managed to take our booking at short notice due to a last minute change of plans. She was still able to take time to make our ceremony detailed and personalised to us as a couple.
Thank you for making us feel so comfortable and playing a huge part in our special day.

Conducted our ceremony when we knew we were getting married we knew we wanted Aileen right away. Aileen was so welcoming and kind when we went to meet with her to go over our ceremony. On the big day we couldn’t be more happy having Aileen there conducting our ceremony it felt so right and she made us feel so comfortable and at ease which made it even better for us. Aileen also come to see me before hand and she said u will be fine and you’re going to enjoy every minute of it and she was definitely right she made it special for us. My self and my new husband would like to thank Aileen again for all that she did on our special day and I would highly recommended Aileen to other people that are getting married she is so good at what she does ❤️

We were recommended Tim by our best friends. They were married by Tim in South Queensferry.
Unfortunately due to COVID and living abroad we had to postpone our wedding twice.
Tim has always been available to support us and reassure us. He is patient and clearly communicates with you on each step of the process.
I (Steph) am English and haven’t had much experience of a Humanist service but Tim made sure we had the best experience.
We loved writing our ceremony and allowing our guests to have a more intimate experience.
We have received so many compliments on the ceremony and I feel like all our guests felt involved and shared how we feel about one another and our family & friends.
I would highly recommend Tim to anyone getting married.
Thank you for making our day so special and being a part of it.
