Frequently asked questions
CAN YOU LEGALLY MARRY COUPLES OUTSIDE AUSTRALIA?
Short answer is, no. If you are a looking into having an international destination wedding (hell yeah!) but if you choose me as your celebrant, you will need to complete all of the legal documents and I will be registering you with BDM in your state of residence.
If you choose to marry internationally, I would encourage you to research the marriage laws of where you intend to marry.
CAN YOU PERFORM RELIGIOUS CEREMONIES?
Unfortunately, I don't conduct religious ceremonies however I would be delighted to incorporate any special traditions to honour your religion and/or cultures into your ceremony. If you are looking for a religious ceremony, I am likely not the celebrant for you!
HOW CAN WE BOOK WITH YOU?
After our initial chat and I've confirmed my availability for your ceremony date, I'll email you with a Booking Form, Celebrant Service Agreement, so that you can pay the booking fee to lock in the date. Along with that I'll request for copies of your passports (for the BDM legal requirements).
When all that paperwork is done, we'll schedule a meet up either online or in person to plan your ceremony! This is the most fun and sweet part where I get to take down your story and we shape your ceremony <3
HOW LONG ARE YOUR CEREMONIES?
Usually they land around the 20-30 minute mark. Any longer and the crowd gets restless!
