Celebrant profile:
Caroline Mortimer
Hi, I’m Caroline a lover of love and can honestly say I have the best job in the world “All Because Two People Fell in Love”. And if you are one of those lovers, perhaps I may just be the celebrant for you.
I live in Cumbernauld but I’m an Ayrshire lass born and bred, and you can take the lassie out of Ayrshire but….
After a fulfilling and diverse career in Financial Services spanning 26 years it was time to follow my heart and here I am 6 years later still pinching myself that I have the privilege of sharing in your life’s milestone moments.
Humanism is about living our best life whilst respecting and understanding the way others choose to live theirs……just as we’d like to be treated in return. Life is absolutely for living, that includes the laughter and the tears. Let’s choose to champion one another and to allow ourselves to be inspired…. sounds like a nice world to live in doesn’t it?
I love meeting and chatting over your vision and your story. Writing your ceremony and being your storyteller is an absolute joy and on your big day itself our connection will be palpable with your guests thinking that we must know each other personally as we’ve worked together so well, we couldn’t have got your ceremony anymore “YOU” if we’d tried.
Your wedding ceremony should be talked about fondly for years to come and it should also set the scene for the rest of your day to unfold exactly as you’d envisaged it – for this, I am “ALL IN”
If this sounds like your vibe, please get in touch, I’d love to chat.

Wedding & Civil Partnership Ceremonies
In a world full of chaos finding your person is EVERYTHING.
And when it’s time to say “I do” finding the right celebrant is like finding the perfect pair of shoes—you need someone who fits your vibe, keeps things comfortable, and won’t leave you with regrets!
When you book me, you’re not just getting an officiant; you’re getting a friend who:
Calms the nerves: I’m your steady hand before you walk down the aisle.
Tells YOUR story: No cookie-cutter scripts here. We’ll include the inside jokes, the tears, and the ‘how we met’ moments that make you you.
Keeps it fun: I promise to keep your guests engaged and your ceremony far from ‘the boring bit’.
Is a total ‘hugger’: I’m there for that post-ceremony squeeze once you’re officially hitched!
If you’ve just nodded your head to all of that we could just be the perfect pair of shoes.
Naming & Welcoming Ceremonies
A Naming Ceremony is a wonderful way to gather with family and friends to welcome a new baby, another child, an adopted child or to celebrate a change of name. Whatever the reason for the celebration it is my privilege to help you navigate through the options for the day to make it truly unique and true to you.
Before the naming day I will listen to your story or rather the story of the star of the show. We will discuss “their story so far” along with possible pledges and promises friends and family can make. We can also discuss your options for poetry and readings, music and symbolic gestures like stone warming or candle lighting.
I then weave all of this information into a truly bespoke ceremony which will be sent to you for approval/amendments to ensure you have one less thing to worry about when getting organised on the big day.
On the Naming Day itself my role is to set the scene for your guests, to ensure everyone enjoys a happy, relaxed ceremony with the star of the show taking centre stage.
If you have any questions at all or would like to have a chat, please just get in touch.
