A celebrant in Aberdeen for couples who want to laugh, love and legally tie the knot, I'm the girl to make your day memorable, fun and with meaning.

Phew Wee... It's the height of wedding season rig Phew Wee...

It's the height of wedding season right now, so I've not been on SM much, and we have a new puppy that's taking up a lot of time.

But what a week for weddings it was; 3 beautiful couples tied the knot this week at some lovely venues.

Can't wait to see all the photos from them, as there was much carry-on during the ceremony .

Your big day

Nikki has reminded me daily of how many sleeps left till today; I'm gonna miss all those wee texts 😂

This is a lovely wee intimate ceremony with their closest friends and family. 

We have a few secrets to spill to them on the day, so I'm pretty sure we're gonna need some tissues at this one.

It's the big day today For Alex and Darlene Raemo It's the big day today

For Alex and Darlene Raemoir House, but will the weather hold for an outdoor wedding?

I see there are thunder storms due today on the weather app, which means we won't be outside in the lovely forest bit at Raemoir if they come.

But no matter where we have it, it will be lovely

Can't wait to see them both later today

Meet Mr and Mrs Hutchison 😁 I had the pleasure a Meet Mr and Mrs Hutchison 😁

I had the pleasure a couple of weeks ago of marrying Courtney and Tris, what a day.

I laughed from the minute I got out of the car till I left, and that includes their ceremony; they were an absolute hoot.

It was a beautiful set-up @pittodriehousehotel  and wait till you see the decor; I'll do a proper vendor shout-out soon, as I had the pleasure of meeting some lovely new vendors that day.

Copy. Paste. Repeat? Not On My Watch! Every singl Copy. Paste. Repeat? Not On My Watch!

Every single ceremony I write is different, well, apart from the legal bits I have to say, which are in every single ceremony.

Apart from that, your story is yours; your rituals, if any, are what fit you as a couple. 

The amount of humour I can get away with depends on your personalities and your guests, of course.

So if you want a ceremony you and your guests will remember, pop over for a chat.

First sight.. The first sight of your script is a First sight..

The first sight of your script is an exciting day, and a nervous one too, for you and for me.

It's our meetings that help me get it just right for you, all those little titbits you've told me that you can't even remember, all the laughs we have at the meetings, and the fact that I love to write.

And even then i still get nervous sending it out, so its not just you that gets wedding nerves, i get them to, just a bit earlier than you do 😁
Sveikinu to Agne and Kelvin who I had the pleasur Sveikinu

to Agne and Kelvin who I had the pleasure of marrying recently, a week ago in fact; boy, did that week go fast.

Don't they look stunning, and that dress was amazing and so Agne.

Everything was absolutely stunning, from the hair to the flowers, the decor to the singing, and it was absolutely how Agne had planned it all.

It was a very multicultural wedding with the bride from Lithuania, the groom from Wales, and guests from all over the globe to. 

I met some lovely new vendors on the day as well, and hi to the ones I missed but gave their all to make sure the day was perfect for the couple.

And to the weather gods, a big thank you for bringing out the sun; it was a gorgeous day.

So I thought I might share some things I've learn So I thought

I might share some things I've learnt over the years about wedding days, and stuff that I tell my brides before the big day.

So first up is about what your guests are looking at, and it's not that you have a spot on your chin, or a midgie bite on your arm.

They are there to see you both, see how happy you are, and of course to see if your partner is going to cry when they see you.

And we all know that the makeup artists are fantastic at their job and can hide a multitude of things on the wedding day.

So let that worry go 😊

And we're off to Pittodrie House today for Courtn And we're off to

Pittodrie House today for Courtney and Tri's big day.

Not done a wedding here before and it's been years since I was even in the hotel, so I can't wait to see it all today.

Pretty sure there are going to be tears at this one today, and from the groom more than the bride, I think.

Looking forward to seeing them all there.

What about some colour... Earlier this week I sha What about some colour...

Earlier this week I shared a stunning black and white colour theme,  if you missed it, go take a look; they were stunning.

But then I got thinking about Ella and Dean's wedding a couple of months back, where there was plenty of colour going on, and nobody was matching at all.

The colours were amazing, so bright and happy, they just made you want to smile.

So there's a reminder: your wedding party doesn't have to be 
colour-coordinated to look incredible.

Whilst I love a splash of colour at a wedding, a Whilst  I love a splash of colour

at a wedding, a black and white colour scheme is something else.

Check out how elegant Carla, Danny and their wedding party looked at their wedding The Chester Hotel a couple of weeks ago.

Are you going black and white or having some serious colour as your colour scheme?

Can you tell... Its height of wedding season 😁 B Can you tell...

Its height of wedding season 😁

Been a mental week this week but such a good one.

All my scripts were approved with 5 stars, the new couples were all lovely, and we had some good craic on the calls.

Rehearsals were lovely, and everyone knew what they were doing on the day
And they were absolutely gorgeous weddings.

Now to treat myself, I'm off on a 4-hour cycle on Monday with some ladies, looking forward to that one, although I might be a bit sore after it.

Hope you've all had a great week. Wedding planning was left for a bit and you enjoyed all that sunshine on Saturday.
And we're off back out to @maryculter.house today And we're off

back out to @maryculter.house today for Agne and Kelvin's big day today

Looking forward to meeting all our travelling guests, some from far far away,.

Were outside again today, so hoping the weather holds for this one too .

Can't wait to see them in all their finery and start their celebrations

Where do we submit the M10S to? This one catches Where do we submit the M10S to?

This one catches folk out, a lot of couples assume it's their nearest registry office. 
It's not. 

It's wherever your venue actually is.

So if you're getting married at Logie Country House in Aberdeenshire, your paperwork goes to the Huntly Registry office, not Aberdeen. 

If you're at the Dyce Hotel, that's the Aberdeen Registry Office in Marshall Square.

But don't worry, I have you covered with all of this M010 stuff. 

I'm a bit OCD about the legal side of getting married and getting the paperwork in on time in the right way, to the right place.
