Specialisms

I believe passionately that ceremonies should be first and foremost about my clients, not about the celebrant's rules, beliefs or ways of doing things, so I practice independently of any group or organisation.

Hi, I'm Aileen

Congratulations!

If you’ve found your way here, you’ve probably got something to celebrate!

Wedding or civil partnership?
New baby or family member?
Vow renewal or new home?

Some occasions just have to be celebrated! Not with just a party, but with a truly meaningful ceremony to seal the moment in everyone’s hearts.

I’ll work with you to create that unique, memorable ceremony which reflects exactly what you want to express on your special occasion.

But there’s more- my FREE GIFT for you!

Your own ceremony script to keep forever, in a hard-bound white linen book.

Wedding, vow renewal, naming ceremony or house blessing, whatever you are celebrating, as a special gift for choosing me to conduct your ceremony, you will receive a beautiful hard-bound souvenir copy of your ceremony script to keep. I’ll bring it with me on the day and leave it with you to share with your guests.

What's my ceremony style?

Honestly, it’s not really about my style. Because it’s your ceremony, your wedding day, your new baby.

It’s so important that the vows, promises and special words you say to each other are truly your words and not your celebrant’s.

Even if your celebrant writes them for you, they should always take great care to write your words and not their own.

The words are already in your heart. My role, my style, is simply to release them.

Why choose Aileen?

Celebrancy is close to my heart. When people are able to say the things which matter to them in a ceremony, witnessed by their loved ones, it can cement their relationships and strengthen their families in a profound and lasting way.

When I decided to train as a celebrant, it was important to me that the training would be the most challenging I could find, the NOCN Level 3 Diploma in Celebrancy.

What do I offer?

Naming Ceremony

Naming Ceremonies

Celebrating a growing family?

Our children are what brings meaning into our families. They capture everyone’s hearts with their joy, energy – and mischief!

When a child is added to the family it’s a time for thanksgiving and strengthening family ties, and a naming ceremony can help you express this perfectly.

From your own back garden to a large venue, every ceremony is different. I’ll write it specially for you and your child, with an introduction of their name, promises made to them by parents and other family members, and any other family traditions which are special to you.

Not a conventional family? That’s fabulous!

Your ceremony will be a unique match to your family’s journey and circumstances. As well as new babies, you can welcome children from current, previous and adoptive relationships into a new, complete family. The ceremony can even recognise the role of surrogates, foster parents or birth parents if appropriate.

A Unique Ceremony. Your ceremony.

Personally and carefully written just for you, fulfilling all your hopes for the day and delighting you and your guests.

An Unforgettable Ceremony

Malcolm Miller

Wedding | 07/08/2024 | University of Glasgow Memorial Chapel

We are so glad we decided to go with Aileen for our wedding!

I struggle to find words to describe how eloquently Aileen was able to capture our relationship and the significance of our marriage. My partner and I were absolutely blown away. Our guests really enjoyed the ceremony as well. Countless friends and family have come up to us with words of praise for Aileen.

Since we elected to have a destination wedding, we didn’t have any local connections to celebrants in the Glasgow area. Upon our initial call with Aileen, we had a great feeling about her. She is incredibly eloquent and very considerate of our backgrounds and what we wanted out of the ceremony. I am a protestant Christian, while my partner is spiritual and doesn’t associate with any particular religious sect. Aileen made sure to incorporate aspects of both of us into the ceremony and the result was astonishing!
We met with Aileen in person a few months ahead of our wedding, and we were incredibly impressed with her organization and creativity. After telling her about our venue (University of Glasgow Memorial Chapel), the time available (50 minutes once the bride arrived) and the size of our wedding (150 guests), she worked with us to organize the exact ordering of our service, including readings, prayers, order of procession, music, handfasting, an oathing stone, and more! From working with Aileen, we learned that there is a LOT of coordination and planning required for a wedding ceremony. That being said, on the day, everything went flawlessly. All of Aileen’s hard work paid off and our guests were astounded how smoothly the ceremony went.

It’s clear that Aileen holds herself to a high standard and seeks to do the best she can with her clients. There are countless little details that we could list. Some of which include, printed cards on the day for all readings, a beautiful oathing stone and handfasting cord we were able to keep and a bound book containing every word which was spoken on the wedding day.

We confidently recommend Aileen to others who require a celebrant!

It was an amazing day…feels like a distant memory now but it was really special.
I can’t thank you enough. This would not have gone ahead without you. The care and attention to detail you put in is very touching!

Renewal Of Vows | 09/10/2022 | Castlecary Hotel

Aileen from ceremony central conducted our wedding vow renewal on Saturday at The Castlecary Hotel. What a wee star! She was funny, put us at ease and generally made everything run smoothly.
We couldn’t recommend Aileen enough xx
