Marriage in Scotland

The legal, church and social services are all different in Scotland from those in England and Wales, and this of course means that the support for Marriage is different too.

Here we have tried to gather together some of the key contacts and organisations which offer services and support especially for Scottish couples to make finding your way around the site easier. Naturally much of the advice at 2-in-2-1 is as relevant to couples in Scotland as it is to anyone in the UK, so whether your need is some encouragement, support or even amusement come on in and browse around 2-in-2-1.
