Today sees the launch of Alice Roberts’ and my new book The Little Book of Humanist Weddings: an uplifting collection of quotes, stories, and meditations chronicling every aspect of relationships, from initial attraction and romance to forging long-lasting connection, commitment, and partnership.

The book draws from the collective wisdom of Humanists UK’s wedding celebrants and is inspired by some of history’s greatest thinkers. It quotes everyone from novelists Margaret Atwood and James Baldwin, to playwrights Lorraine Hansberry and Noel Coward, and the broadcaster and writer, Stephen Fry. Written to inspire and stimulate couples’ thoughts around the ideas, beliefs, and values at the foundation of their humanist wedding or relationship, this pocket-sized guide is the perfect complement to making a wedding a day to remember, and a memory to cherish.

The book can be purchased from Waterstones, Amazon, Blackwell’s, Hive, and all good bookshops at £7.99 RRP. All author royalties from the book go towards supporting the work of Humanists UK.
