Stephen McLaren

Stephen was helpful, easy to communicate with and so personable and lovely. Everyone at our wedding commented on how great and warm he was. I’d strongly recommend him to anyone.

We had the most amazing day at our wedding on october 27th. We had a celebrant named Stephen McLaren and honestly.. there isn't enough words to describe how fantastic he is not only as our celebrant but as a person. He met with us initially and we just loved him straight away ! he is hilarious and very compassionate. He was with us the whole journey and on the wedding day everyone commented It was the nicest and most personal ceremony they had ever attended !! cannot recommend this man enough 🥰❤️ xxxx also Daziel park hotel .. beautiful wedding venue xx

Stevie was amazing to work with from beginning to end - he gave us so many helpful pointers not just on our ceremony but on all the legal stuff as well which was very much appreciated. He framed our story so perfectly for our script and made it both funny and personal which is exactly what we wanted! He was always available just an email away and his enthusiasm for what he does really shined through. He was also incredibly helpful on the day in terms of keeping everything calm and helping to make sure everything went ahead as planned. We can't thank him enough for helping to make our day absolutely perfect.

My special day was as smooth as a dream, from the weather to the staff. Stephen McLaren brought laughter and tears to our ceremony and was loved by myself and my groom and our guests, he took our story and turned into a comedy love story which was amazing.

Stevie went above and beyond to make our special day truly unforgettable. His guidance and support throughout the planning process was invaluable. He was incredibly easy to work with and we appreciated his warmth and dedication in creating a meaningful and personalised ceremony that was unique and memorable. Thank you for being an essential part of our day and making our celebration wonderful!

We loved Stephen. He was a gentleman from start to finish and we just clicked with him immediately. He is so funny and put us at ease from the word go. He had lots of great suggestions and really was a huge part of our day. Thank you Stephen for being a part of our special day, you are brilliant!!

Right from the very beginning Stephen was unbelievably helpful in not only giving us all the “legal advice” on documents needed, registry offices etc, but he also helped us find a beautiful location for our ceremony. We chose to elope in Scotland and had only our children and witnesses at the wedding - despite being so intimate Stephen was wonderful in getting us all laughing, feeling comfortable and was incredible with our young children, giving them roles in the ceremony and making them feel really special throughout. His advice and ideas for our ceremony were so helpful and the script he created was completely tailored to exactly what we wanted and captured our story so perfectly! He even went out of his way to help my sister write her speech for the ceremony too. The day was perfect and I believe a huge part of that was down to Stephen. We filmed our ceremony for our family to watch afterwards and everyone has commented on how fantastic he was. We would highly recommend Stephen to anyone looking for a celebrant on their special day!

We first spoke with Stevie when we booked our wedding in early 2019 for our September 2020 wedding. We all know what happened next! We had multiple postponements and eventually cancelled to let life get back to normal and finally managed to rearrange for early 2023. Stevie was a constant support and would often check in with us to see how things were. He explained the process of everything and really got to know us as a couple over the many, many years! So much so that we only realised after our ceremony was over that it was actually the first time we had met in person, previously it had always been via Skype but it never felt that way. Stevie took our words and wrote the most amazing script, so many of our guests told us how special and memorable it was and felt so “us” We can’t thank him enough for all his support!

This man is so involved. He really gets to know you and makes the service so personal. He keeps you up to date with everything and makes sure you are happy every step of the way. He genuinely seems just as excited for your big day as you are. I can't recommend him enough. Just such a lovely man. Thank you for making our day so great and light hearted. You made it so relaxed, which is exactly what we wanted.

Stephen was incredible from start to Finish he made us feel so relaxed from the first meeting which is why we booked him in the first place. We laughter with him, cried with him he made everything so simple. He went above and beyond to include our little boy in every part of the ceremony people commented that they thought he had known us for years because the way he spoke I would recommend him to anyone there us no one better to tell your story
