Maureen Kettle Humanist Celebrant Full Description
Looking for a relaxed, warm and fun marriage ceremony that’s solemn and sincere at all the appropriate points? Yes? Well I might just be a perfect match for you, as a couple! Based in Central Scotland and a registered celebrant with Humanist Society Scotland, I am fully authorised to conduct legal weddings anywhere in Scotland, and from my central location, am happy to travel to be a part of your special day. From our first meeting, be that in person or on Zoom, we’ll work together to create the perfect ceremony, one which truly reflects both of your personalities and all the things that are important to you. I'm here to help advise and guide you every step of the way with the legal aspects of a wedding in Scotland, (things like submitting your M10 forms to the registration office closest to your venue). I'm also here to help make sure things run smoothly on the day and ensure your ceremony leaves you wishing you could do the whole thing over again.

The best day ever
I married the love of my life on September 6th, at the Vu, Bathgate. Maureen Kettle came recommended to us and didn’t disappoint. Every step of the way leading up to our big day she was keeping us on the right path - nothing was too much trouble. After the ceremony I lost count of how many times people said that the wedding was great. How they hadn’t been to a humanist wedding before and loved how Maureen made it so personal. She delivered exactly what she said she was going to. Our tailor made wedding, to our taste, which suited us. She made it fantastic ! From the bottom of our hearts bottom, we can’t thank you enough Stephen and Gail xx

THE go to humanist for a personal and fun wedding ceremony
We cannot recommend Maureen highly enough. From our first meeting to planning the ceremony and the day itself we found that she put everyone at ease. Maureen knew how to get all the necessary points and stories out of us in order to put together a very personalised and relaxed ceremony. We have had many guests comment on how much they enjoyed it and even some asking for Maureen’s details for their own big day! Thanks again for everything xx

Today was the most magical ceremony!
Maureen, thank you for sharing our special day with us. We felt so supported by you on our journey, and feel to grateful to have met you. Today was the most magical ceremony. You told our story beautifully and made us laugh. Lucas will always remember helping to tie the knot with his Spiderman ribbon. You made our day so unique. We will be talking about it for many years to come. Jenny, Calum & Lucas (13.07.24)

Maureen saved our day!
Maureen stepped in at the last minute because our original Celebrant had taken ill and saved the day! her calm, unflappable approach settled our nerves and on the day you'd never know that she hadn't been with us the whole time. her warmth and honour shines through and she was a perfect fit for us. I can't recommend her highly enough, she is more than a safe pair of hands xx

5 stars.....Maureen is simply amazing!
5 stars!!!! Maureen is simply amazing. From our first contact with Maureen, we felt at ease. Getting married can be quite daunting especially with all the planning to be done and paper work to be completed. Maureen is super organised and emailed us everything we needed to complete and guidelines on how to do it, along with a time frame on when things needed to be conpleted, which was a massive help. She is always on hand to answer any questions you have and replies very promptly. We wanted our ceremony to be very light hearted and for our kids to be involved, which Maureen made sure happened. We had them bringing up our rings and tying our handfasting knots, which were both Maureen's ideas. Lots of our guests commented on how down to earth Maureen is and how well our story was delivered. If you are looking for a celebrant.....I can assure you Maureen is the one! Maureen thank you again for a beautiful day we will all remember.

Best celebrant!!
I would highly recommend Maureen 😊 from the first zoom call I knew we definitely picked the right celebrant to marry us! She is so easy to chat too, so down to earth and funny also 😊 her communication was excellent all the way through to our big day. She gave us some homework to do which was so easy to follow and helped us write our story. Maureen always kept us right while also giving us ideas and advice which was nice. We also got to visit Maureen in her home a couple days before the wedding to go over everything and made sure we were 100% happy with the structure of the ceremony and wording. This made us feel so much better and less nervous for the big day😊. During our ceremony Maureen was brilliant, she didn’t make it too serious and got some giggles out of our guests which was nice! Thank you so so much again Maureen🥰 xx
