A government committee has supported legislation that would introduce same-sex marriage in Scotland.
A majority of MSPs on the Equal Opportunities Committee have given their support to the Marriage and Civil Partnership Bill. Other members were not convinced by the Bill and voiced concerns that it did not provide adequate protections.
The new legislation still needs to go through a rigorous voting process at Parliament before it can officially become law.
Convener of the equal opportunities committee, Labour MSP Margaret McCulloch, said: "All of us on the committee recognise the validity, depth and sincerity of all views submitted to us on what has clearly been an emotive issue.
As two sassenachs wishing to get married in the area, the staff at the Highland Registry office in Fortrose could not be more helpful, Marion made the occasion so special and a day to remember.
