Maureen Kettle Humanist Celebrant Full Description

Are you looking for a warm, fun and relaxed 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 by video call, 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 ... from sending you off with a spot of "homework" for your ceremony, to gently reminding you when you should be 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 to ensure that your ceremony is one that you, and your guests will remember for years to come ... and one which leaves you wishing you could do the whole thing over again.

Macdonald Wedding - 11/07/2025

We had the absolute pleasure of having Maureen as our celebrant for our wedding, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. From the very first meeting, she was so approachable, kind, and genuinely loving – it felt like talking to an old friend. In the lead-up to the big day, Maureen was incredibly helpful and supportive, guiding us through the process with patience and warmth. Nothing ever felt rushed or stressful. She took the time to understand us as a couple and tailored the ceremony to reflect us perfectly. On the day itself, Maureen was simply amazing. She brought such a calm and comforting presence, which helped settle our nerves more than she probably knows. Her delivery of the ceremony script was beautifully done – heartfelt, clear, and full of emotion, keeping everyone engaged and even brought happy tears. We genuinely can’t recommend Maureen enough. If you’re looking for a celebrant who brings love, light, and a truly personal touch to your ceremony, go with Maureen – you won’t regret it. Thank you, David and Natalie (11/07/2025)

Perfect day

We first met Maureen Kettle at a wedding open day at the Stirling Highland Hotel – and honestly, within minutes we knew we’d found our celebrant. We weren’t even looking for one at the time (we were mainly focused on the venue!), but Maureen instantly gave us confidence and comfort. We actually ended up choosing our wedding date based on her availability; that’s how good she is! From the very start, Maureen was warm, welcoming, and incredibly organised. She was proactive with meetings, set clear expectations, and took all the stress out of the planning process. She made a real effort to get to know us, our story, and our families, which meant that by the big day she felt like part of the family herself. The ceremony was everything we could have wished for; fun, heartfelt, personal, and perfectly tailored to us. Maureen brought in Celtic traditions that beautifully tied together our Irish and Scottish families, making the whole experience feel unique and special. She also handled some good-natured heckling from our guests with absolute ease, which only added to the relaxed and joyful atmosphere. On the day itself, Maureen was a calming presence (especially for the groom!) and kept everything running smoothly. She made everyone feel welcome and comfortable, and our guests haven’t stopped telling us how lovely she was. On top of that, she took some amazing photos, and her communication both before and after the wedding has been fantastic. Maureen really goes above and beyond; she’s not just a celebrant, she’s someone who genuinely cares about making your day perfect. Thank you so much, Heather and James x

Elopement

Maureen was our humanist for our elopement wedding. Right from the start, Maureen guided us through the process and was on hand for any advice and questions needing answered. We had a lovely, relaxed, personal ceremony and would highly recommend Maureen. Maureen was great and made the day so personal to us, couldn't have asked for a better match for us.

The most magical day we could’ve imagined.

We are so glad we booked Maureen to be our celebrant, her professionalism, humour, personality and energy are second to none. We honestly felt that it was our close friend conducting our ceremony. We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect day and cannot thank Maureen enough for her being there on our special day. Maureen took the time over the years to get to know us, we had regular meetings with her and could chat at any time. Maureen supported us with all things wedding not just our ceremony. We cannot recommend Maureen any more than we already do, she is 100% the best celebrant around and we are so glad we had her for our day. Thank you again for everything.

The most perfect day!!

We are so lucky to have had Maureen conduct our ceremony. From the very first meeting you put us at ease, with your warm calming and friendly energy. You are such a lovely lady who puts so much work and attention to detail into every aspect. We had so many compliments from our wedding guests about how loving and personal our Ceremony was and that all lies in the preparation and work that Maureen puts in. You made our day so very special and we are forever thankful to you.

We couldn't have asked for a better ceremony!

Myself and Jennifer just wanted to say a massive thank you for everything! We couldn’t have asked for a better ceremony and so glad that it was yourself that was part of our special day! Throughout the entire process you made us feel calm and ready for what was a nerve-wracking day for us both … and to have someone so attentive, caring, and just a genuinely lovely person up there marrying us, means the absolute world to us both. So again, thank you! All the best, Steven & Jen (McLoone!)
