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.

Angus Farquhar was the celebrant for our wedding at Ravensheugh Log Cabin. He guided us from start to finish and supported us to deliver a unique ceremony, full of personal touches, that was greatly appreciated by us and received many compliments from our guests. Angus spoke in both English and Italian to make for a fully inclusive ceremony and we are very thankful of his guidance on the Wedding day. Thanks again and best wishes, Sam & Angela.
Paddy was our fabulous celebrant for our wedding at Cornhill Castle on July 6th. Paddy has been so patient with us as we were due to get married back in 2021, but we had to postpone a couple of times for one reason or another. We just loved working with Paddy. I am a huge Shakespeare fan and Paddy chose such beautiful and fitting quotes to incorporate into our ceremony. We really enjoyed putting our ceremony together, and were delighted at how personal it was – very us! Paddy is warm, personable and has such a lovely presence, which many of our guests commented on. He is such a lovely man, and we felt honoured to have him marry us – a very special part of our perfect day. Thank you, Paddy.xx
Maureen Waterston was our Celebrant and was more than we dreamed , from the moment we met her we left saying we could have stayed and spoke to her all day . Made us feel so at ease & comfortable . Maureen helped us honour our loved ones who are no longer with us in a special way that didn’t take away from the happiness of the day . Our story was told beautifully and authentically. Maureen helped us live in the moment and let our beautiful son who is autistic be himself and went with the flow , we couldn’t wish for a more genuine and kind person to Marry us and be a part of our special day . We wish Maureen nothing but happiness she deserves everything and more .
Aileen Massie was our celebrant for our wedding in June and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Aileen is so lovely and down to earth we knew we had found our celebrant as soon as we met her. Aileen knew exactly what kind of ceremony we wanted and really put our minds at ease, she wrote us a beautiful ceremony and really got to know us and our story. We’ve had so many people saying how lovely the ceremony was and we really couldn’t be happier with how it went.
Thank you so much Aileen for making our day so special x
Mo gave us a ceremony which was engaging and really fit the style we were going for. She was always on hand throughout the planning process to answer any questions and help if we needed advice. We were very glad we asked her to be our celebrant.
