Hi, I’m Becky,

a family friendly celebrant based in Brechin.

I love to craft and tell stories...
Hello and a warm welcome to my website. My name is Becky Young and I am an Independent Celebrant. My path has been anything but ordinary. As an ex prison officer, I have navigated the complexities of human behavior, showcasing strength and compassion in a challenging environment. This experience not only honed my skills in communication and conflict resolution but also deepened my understanding of the human condition—an insight that informs my writing today.

I then transitioned to the role of a train driver, helping to pave the way for future generations of women in a traditionally male-dominated field. I am very proud of my historic achievement as Dundee's first female driver and I feel it is a testament to my unwavering belief in my abilities. I am a trained Insite to Wellbeing Faciliator as I care about the importance of mental health. I am a huge animal lover and have flung myself out of a plane and bungeed off a bridge to raise money for them for all different charities. I have also helped to rescue & rehome dozens of English Bull Terriers, my absolute favourite dog, from both Spain, the Canary Islands and United Kingdom.


No story is the same and I believe no ceremony should be the same.

  • I will ensure your ceremony is true to your wishes and your style.
  • I will be organised and punctual and follow through with everything we agree upon.
  • I will break the mould or honour tradition, whichever you prefer, or create a mix of the two.
  • I’m all for equality, diversity and individuality. All couples welcome.
  • I will draw on my experiences as a celebrant, a guest and an all-round organiser to assist and guide you through the process of planning your ceremony.
