- If you would like some suggestions or examples of suitable readings for the ceremony, please click on the link below entitled 'READINGS/ORDER'
Likewise, if you would like to see a copy of the normal abbreviated but very flexible Order of Service - All marriages in Scotland must conform to Scottish Law. This requires couples to contact the Registrar of the District in which the marriage is to be celebrated (up to eight weeks but no less than four weeks prior to the date of the Ceremony) The Registrar will inform you of all documents, details, residence requirements etc. After satisfactory Publication of your Intention to Marry you will be issued with a Schedule of Marriage. The Minister must have that document before the Service can begin. After it has been duly signed at the conclusion of the Service it must be returned to the issuing Registrar within three days.
Ministers are licensed to perform Religious but not Civil Ceremonies. The Order of Service is flexible provided the marriage vows are taken before God and duly witnessed. I shall be more than delighted to perform the marriage ceremony and give God's Blessing on your new life together. For further details please make contact by any of the means shown on this page.
