LGBT History Month – #20 – Just married

St Mary’s Cathedral is known for its magnificent weddings — organs, choirs, gorgeous liturgy, bells, whistles, and that one time, when there was a trained owl. The first public same-sex blessing of a civil partnership was conducted in the building 2008, and when it became possible to conduct same-sex weddings in Scottish Episcopal Churches in September 2017 St Mary’s was amongst the first of the churches to do so. We are also happy to conduct marriages of opposite-sex couples in the Cathedral, and they are every bit as fabulous.

These badges are sometimes given out by the celebrant to the newly married couple after their service.

Some pictures of weddings at St Mary’s can be seen here, on the Weddings page of the website:
