Monica — Warm, Calming Celebrant for Personal Weddings in Scotland

Meet Monica

Warm, caring and always happiest with a good coffee in hand

About Me

I’m Monica — Edinburgh‑born, North‑East based, and someone who’s always loved people and their stories. After a long and lively teaching career, I realised the parts I loved most were the listening, the guiding, and the laughter… so I brought all of that into ceremonies. Couples often tell me I have a calming way of making everything feel clear and manageable, even when life is busy and full of happy chaos. 

I’m a natural storyteller with a soft spot for poetry, warm conversations, and the kind of moments that feel real rather than rehearsed. My ceremonies are thoughtful, relaxed, and shaped around the small details that make your relationship yours. If you enjoy a good chat, a good laugh, and a ceremony that feels grounded and genuine, we’ll get on brilliantly.

What It’s Like Working With Me

  • Gentle, structured planning that keeps everything simple and stress‑free.
  • Warm, sincere ceremonies with a light touch of humour where it fits.
  • Clear, steady communication — I’m a great listener and a calm guide.
  • A relaxed, reassuring presence on the day, keeping everyone at ease.
  • Easy collaboration with the wider Ceremonies.Scot team to keep things running smoothly.

A Small Human Detail

I have a deep love for wee independent coffee shops — especially the ones with great scones and even better chat.
