Hi, I'm Angela
I’m Angela! Why me? I love officiating! Over six years’ experience. I will go above and beyond, your ceremony your way. I am a natural organiser, happy being in charge, its my natural state of being, but also happy working within a team. I am great with the detail and love a list! I am interested in people. I like quality. I am passionate about my role and I am approachable and friendly. A bit, (no, a lot if I am being honest) of a perfectionist, I have an attention for detail. But also relaxed and motivated. I am generous and I have a good heart and I am committed to the couples and families that I work with. With any life event, time is what you deserve, and time is what I give you in abundance. I take time to really understand your wants and needs and to understand you as a couple and a family.
What's my ceremony style?
I create ceremonies all about you. I am a loving and respectful celebrant creating ceremonies all about you. I will support, guide you and write bespoke ceremonies reflecting your values. I always work with love and compassion and offer support and guidance. My goal in my life is to help people to be the very best they can be and to leave the person feeling better in themselves after we have talked. I am passionate about my role and I am approachable and friendly.
I offer, ideas, guidance and experience. We journey together.
I can adapt to your needs whilst making suggestions if required.
I am authorised through the Open Sanctuary to conduct legal weddings anywhere in Scotland. Castles, stately home and gardens are some of my favourites.
As a Celebrant Plus, my extra training and experience helps me to support families to create perfect celebrations of life with traditional or non traditional services.

What do I offer?
Weddings
As a hopeless romantic, I love celebrating love. Whether your wedding is an intimate affair or a grand celebration of your marriage, there is no better place than Scotland to celebrate.
If outdoors in our beautiful highlands be prepared to have four seasons in a day. My favourite venues are castles, estates, and the fabulous country house hotels.
Many of my ceremonies have a traditional format, celebrating you, but with a creative modern twist.
My ceremonies are formal without the formality. Fun and fresh. Sentimental but not cheesy. Meaningful. Memorable. Joyful and authentic.
“You” is what is important, and the content, inspiration and humour of each ceremony comes solely from you. Each ceremony really is a ‘one off’. After all there are no two couples that are the same.
I am there for you during the entire process from the moment you appoint me to the moment you are legally married.
Yours is the story I would love to tell.
Every couple is unique and have their own love story to share.
Every wedding is special and I will make it perfect for you both.
I will create a ceremony which reflects your values and beliefs. A personalised reflection of you both, the essence, the meaningful details, creating memories on the day that you and your family and friends will treasure for a lifetime. I can include symbolic ritual, elements also which include your family and friends such as Handfasting or drinking from the Quaich.
Over the last seven years I have been collecting ideas and suggestions which I can share with you, it may give you inspiration to create your own vows. We will create memorable moments.
Together we will create your perfect wedding ceremony which will be the foundation in your marriage.
I am registered through the Open Sanctuary to officiate a legal wedding anywhere in Scotland.

Funerals
I create ceremonies that are unique, personal, inclusive, and heartfelt. At this tremendously sad time when we have to say goodbye to a loved one, the pain and the sadness we feel can be overwhelming. I will do everything to honour and respect your grief, whilst helping you to create a personalised funeral ceremony that is meaningful.
Each ceremony is individually written and is full of the precious memories that truly reflect, and honour, the person who has died. The ceremony will be a dignified and fitting tribute, focusing on their own journey of life that made them so special and unique.
As a Celebrant plus I support families to have choice in their end-of-life rites of passage. By choosing me as your celebrant, I will guide and support you when choosing a funeral director, a venue for the service as well as alternative coffins, music, and tributes.
Whether a traditional or alternative service, I will be there supporting you.
We will have conversations in a way that suits you best, spending time talking about how you would like the funeral to be. I talk you though the house keeping answering any questions you may have, and we go onto talk about your memories and stories of your loved one. I am there to support you and to guide you with questions if needed. Each ceremony that I write is personal and unique, some aspects do have similar words used, for time of reflection and committal, where the coffin is lowered or covered in a crematorium (if this is your wish) or interred into the ground for a burial, but I can always suggest options for you. I have many resources that I have collected over the years that I can share with you, poems, readings, prayers and music. There is no right or wrong with a funeral, it has to be right for your and for your loved one.

Fantastic!!
We feel so lucky that we had Angela as our celebrant. She was so friendly, helpful, organised and kept us calm from our first meeting, right through to the ceremony itself, despite the overwhelming emotions during the vows. She made our ceremony so personal to us, that it felt like a friend marrying us. We could not recommend her highly enough. Thank you Angela
Wedding review
The whole process was smooth and efficient, we were so pleased we found Angela who carried out our service and advised us every aspect of our ceremony. Her website was very useful and helpful.
Magical Wedding At Ossians Hall
Angela created the most amazing memories for us on our wedding day.
From the very first contact we made through to the ceremony itself, Angela held our hand during the process. If you’re getting married and looking for a celebrant, then no look no further.
We can’t thank her enough for what she did to help us have the most magical ceremony.
