Steven Muir

Hi, I am Steven Muir and I live in Barrhead, near Paisley, with my wife Kate.

Between us we have five grown up children and numerous grandchildren!

An Ayrshire lad, growing up in Prestwick, I left school to join the Royal Navy followed by some time serving as a police officer in Ayrshire.

I moved to London for three years to pursue a career in sales, later returning to Scotland where I have enjoyed various sales positions with different companies, travelling throughout the UK and finally retiring from sales in 2017.

I have always been drawn to Humanism and it was at a friends Humanist wedding that my interest was rekindled.

It made me reflect on what’s important in life - family, friends and healthy respect for everything that life brings you.

On reflection it seems I have always been a humanist, I just hadn’t put a label on it!

Weddings and Civil Partnerships

One of the many great things about conducting a Humanist wedding or civil partnership is meeting the happy couple and putting together a unique and bespoke ceremony that reflects their thoughts and feelings.

This contributes towards a truly memorable day for those attending and for me, it is an honour and privilege to help make it happen.  

Funerals

I have always been struck by the way a humanist ceremony stands out as a celebration of life, filled with both tears and laughter, it gives a real reflection of that person’s life.

As a celebrant with the Caledonian Humanist Association, my dedicated role is to work closely with you, to create a bespoke service that is personal, unique and dignified and one that honours the memory of your loved one.
