The decision to marry is an important milestone, that should be marked in a way that is absolutely right for you.

You may feel that the ritual and words of a religious wedding do not fit your outlook on life.

On the other hand the laws governing a Register Office ceremony strictly control what can be said and done and where a wedding ceremony can be held, and may feel impersonal and unsatisfying.

A humanist wedding or blessing gives you the flexibility to create an occasion that celebrates your marriage in your own way. You can include and reflect different cultural backgrounds. You get to know the person who will conduct your wedding, choose your own words and marry where and when you like.

And while every humanist wedding is warm, dignified and sincere, no two ceremonies are the same and yours will be utterly unique.
