Wedding Ceremonies

Your Wedding Day

This is your day - you choose where and when you would like your ceremony to take place. Whether it be

Your ceremony can be at any time of the day; morning, noon or night.

Where to Begin

Before we get into the exciting part of picking dresses and shoes we need to meet to complete a Notice of Intended Marriage (Click here to  download a copy of the Notice of Intended Marriage form from the Australian Government Attorney-General's Department or I can supply one for you.)

This form must be lodged with me at least 1 month and 1 day prior to your ceremony.

If you were born in Australia , you must provide an original birth certificate for identification purposes.. If you need to obtain a certificate, an official copy can be obtained from the Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages in the state where you were born. by contacting  Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages in all Australian states.

If you were born outside of Australia , your original birth certificate is the preferred document for identification purposes, but an overseas passport is also acceptable.

If you have been married previously, you will need to provide documentation showing how the marriage was terminated (e.g. by dissolution or death).

Living outside Australia

Couples can contact me to have the "Notice of Intended Marriage" form emailed to them which will then need to be completed in the presence of an Australian consular officer, an Australian diplomatic officer or any Notary Public.

This document, along with copies of your birth certificates (or if these are not available copies of the passports of the country of birth) should then be posted for me to have in my possession at least one month and one day before the date of your ceremony.
If either party has been married before, you must provide documentation of the termination of that marriage.

A deposit is required initially to secure your selected date and time. I will then provide you with your own personal folder containing selections of ceremonies that I have created.

Your  Ceremony 

For any size or style of wedding that you dream of - whether you are eloping, hosting a small and intimate occasion, calling for a formal and traditional ceremony, creating new traditions and rituals or just having a party to celebrate and inviting all your friends ... you can have the ceremony you want. Your relationship is unique and having a ceremony that is in harmony with your beliefs, ideas and personal style is important. This is the time to celebrate your love and friendship, your dreams and goals together.

There are many ways in which to include family members and friends, cultural symbols, poems or songs if you so desire. Together, we'll create a ceremony that you are both really happy with.

I offer unlimited assistance with the choosing and writing of your ceremony, and great ideas and support so that you will have a ceremony that you both will love!

I provide a public address system that ensures your guests will hear your ceremony, whether we are inside, or out on the beach. This comes with a battery pack, CD player & MP3 to ensure we can play your music whether we have power or not.

There are three documents to be signed during your ceremony;

At the end of your ceremony you will receive your presentation Marriage Certificate and a bound copy of your ceremony as a keepsake. You will still need to apply through Births Deaths & Marriages for your Registered Marriage Certificate, which I can assist you with. There is a fee to acquire this.

You are now married

The lodgment and registration of your marriage will be sent to the Queensland Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages following your ceremony.

From our first meeting. It will be apparent to you of my devotion to you and your special day.
