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.

We can’t recommend Aileen Massie Highly enough, we were so lucky to have her conduct our ceremony. Aileen spend time with us in person and over email to really get to know us individually and as a couple, which really helped make this part of the wedding stress free and enjoyable. We had no doubt that Aileen was the right person for us as she is so down to earth, witty, friendly and caring (perfect for the job) on our wedding day our ceremony was full of laughter, tears and such joyful moments made more perfect by how Aileen put the whole ceremony together, a lot of hard work and time had obviously been spent making our story so perfect. Thank you again Aileen.
“We had Aileen Massie as our celebrant for our wedding at Balbirnie Hotel in July 2025, from the moment we met Aileen we were put at ease. What was thought to be a nervy process turned out to be really enjoyable, after a few minutes chatting we were relaxed, it felt as if we had known Aileen for years. When it came to our script the way she put our story into words for the ceremony was just absolutely perfect…couldn’t have gone any better, Aileen blended in with everyone throughout the day and helped keep the stress away from us, A nice touch was the way she packaged our vows as a memento for us…nice touch, I would recommend Aileen to anyone. 10/10“
We used celebrate people to conduct our wedding ceremony at Dean Park Hotel, Kirkcaldy. Aileen Massie conducted our ceremony and from meeting her for the first time we knew she was the perfect person to tell our love story. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease as neither of us knew what to expect but as our initial meeting went on we were all laughing. I had already known Aileen as she taught at the primary school I attended. Aileen answered all our questions and sent us our script in advance. On our wedding day she was a pillar of support to both me and my husband from giving us words of advice and calming our nerves, and our son absolutely loved her which made the whole ceremony even more personal and perfect. Thank you so much Aileen you are amazing!!
Libby married us at Gilmerton House in July and she was so helpful throughout the process. She helped make our intimate ceremony authentic and genuine, and our guests kept commenting how relaxed and fun the ceremony felt!
Libby McArthur gave us a wonderful, fun and relaxed ceremony which is just what we were looking for. Love the tartan outfit too!
