I will be ready on site 30 minutes prior to ceremony start time.

My awesome speaker will be pumping out tunes and good times to get everyone in the celebration vibe.

Your vows, readings and all of the necessary paperwork will all be printed out, pre-filled where appropriate all in a super snazzy presentation folder.

You will need your two witnesses over the age of 18 years to witness signing the documents which is the Official Certificate of Marriage and Marriage Certificate.

Once I have helped your super rock star photographer get the group shots, I will sadly leave the venue. I will leave you to enjoy your newlywedded bliss with your favourite VIPS.

I will take all of the paperwork with me and upload these to the NSW Births Deaths and Marriages Department in NSW to register your marriage.

I’ll be in touch post wedding day to make sure your Marriage Certificate from NSW Births Deaths and Marriages has arrived (normally two weeks post your wedding day).

The stress of planning a wedding with 100+ guests isn’t suited to everyone.

With the increased cost in general living and interest rates, it’s no surprise that Elopements are fast becoming a more popular alternative.

You don’t want to spend heaps of money on a wedding and reception.

You want an intimate wedding ceremony.

You would rather put your hard-earned money towards a house deposit, new car or galivant around the world in newlywedded bliss.

This can be just the two of you or a small gathering of your VIPs.

The same legal options exist for an Elopement.

Typically held Monday to Thursday and Sundays.

You will need two witnesses over the age of 18 years one can be your chosen photographer and the other can be someone from the venue or I can provide one as well.

You would have gone to a Registry Office, but you’ve realised that requires a trip to Sydlicious.

Not everyone wants the full-blown wedding experience.

You want no fuss.

You want to complete the minimum legal requirements for your wedding to be recognised in Australia.

You may have been married before.

You might have chosen to have a celebration overseas with your nearest and dearest and want to make it legit prior.

This is what traditionally would take place in a Registry Office, but I offer the services here as a Young Wedding Celebrant based in Orange.

This can take place anywhere, even while you sip Rosé at one of our amazing local wineries. I just can’t drink and celebrant but can absolutely celebrate and enjoy a grape juice with you afterwards.

Can fit into and around your schedules.

Typically, Monday to Thursday and Sundays.

A fabulous alternative to an NSW Registry Wedding, where cost can exceed $550 and require some coordination on your part.

It can be held in your backyard, paddock, or a location of significance to you.

We need two witnesses over the age of 18 years to be present e.g., friend and family.

We sign the Declaration of No Legal Impediment. This is essentially stating your details are correct.

I must state the following word for word. It is called the Monitum and from The Marriage Act from 1961 and updated since Marriage Equality finally came into effect. It must be read by your appointed Commonwealth- registered celebrant. It is a statement of your appointed Marriage Celebrants (me) authority to solemise your marriage, and it explains and defines marriage under Australian law. “I am duly authorised by law to solemise marriages according to the law. Before you are joined in marriage in my presence and in the presence of these witnesses, I am to remind you of the solemn and binding nature of the relationship in which you are now about to enter. Marriage according to law in Australia, is the union of two people to the exclusion of all others, voluntarily entered into for life.”

Subsection 45(2) of The Marriage Act sets out the vows required to be said by parties to a civil marriage ceremony. You will need to say the legal vows to ensure your marriage is valid according to The Marriage Act “I call upon the persons here present, to witness that I <Full legal name of Party 1> take you <Full legal name of Party 2> to be my lawful wedded wife / partner / spouse.”

Your vows, readings and all of the necessary paperwork will all be printed out, pre-filled where appropriate all in a super snazzy presentation folder.
