Renfrewshire’s events programme gets underway next month as the ever-popular Paisley Food and Drink Festival makes its return to the town offering an array of delicious dishes and fantastic entertainment for all.

The free to attend two-day event, returns on Friday 24 and Saturday 25 April in Abbey Close and Bridge Street in Paisley town centre.

This year’s festival has been supported by funding from EventScotland which has allowed the event programme to be expanded to include a Big Feed Foodie & Makers Market offering a range of artisan products for visitors to buy.

Renfrewshire CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale) will also be back with their Beer Tent located on Bridge Street for visitors to sample some of the finest ales and craft beers sourced from across Scotland.

This year will see more than 60 traders offer their wares to attendees with options to suit a range of dietary requirements to make sure everyone can enjoy all the fun of the festival.

A life-changing conversation doesn’t usually start with a grand speech. It usually starts with a coffee, a walk, and a friend who is willing to listen. ☕💙

On Day, we are reflecting on how powerful human connection really is. When you listen to someone, you validate their experience. You tell them, "You matter." That simple act can turn someone's day, or life, around.

You are never alone at UWS. Whether you are struggling with exam stress, personal issues, or just feeling low, our door is open.

Well done to our former student Laura 👏 👏 what a great recognition!!!

We’re incredibly proud to share that Laura McCranor Weddings & Events has been named Best Destination Wedding Planner 2025 at the Scottish Enterprise Awards. A moment of huge pride and one that reflects the care and commitment that’s at the heart of everything we do.

As the year draws to a close, we’re taking a moment to reflect on what has been an incredibly special year us. It’s a privilege to be entrusted with such meaningful celebrations and we are endlessly proud of the weddings we’ve had the joy of planning.

From our home and playground of Scotland to planning across Europe, it’s been a year of travel and creativity. None of this would be possible without our extraordinary team, whose dedication and attention to detail make the magic happen time and time again.

As we look ahead, 2026 brings more beautiful celebrations both at home and abroad, with weddings planned across Scotland, Italy, Ireland and Mallorca. We continue to take on a limited number of weddings each year to ensure every couple receives the focus and bespoke experience they deserve.

Finally, a heartfelt thank you to our incredible community of trusted suppliers. Your talent and partnership elevate every celebration and we’re so grateful for the relationships (old & new) that make this work such a joy.

With gratitude, pride and excitement for what’s to come.

Laura
