FAQ

Absolutely! I love being available to all couples. If travel is needed, any expenses will be discussed and then added to your invoice. I allow free travel for 100km round trip from my home.
Although I cover all of the legalities needed for your marriage, the Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) form will be given to my clients no earlier than 18 months prior and must be received back within 30 days of your marriage date.
A Notice of Intended Marriage form (NOIM) must be received no later then 30 days before your marriage date. However, if you need it earlier, there is a ‘Shortening of Time’ application, available only under extenuating circumstances.
I recommend booking a celebrant around 18 months to 3 months prior to your wedding date. The sooner you lock one in, the sooner you can start planning!
As long or as short as you like! Want to write poetry paragraphs long for your love? Do it! Wan it short and sweet nd to the point? I can do that too.. Remember… it’s your day!

Legally you need two witnesses over the age of 18 with IDs ready to be allowed to marry.
If for any reason there is a need to cancel your wedding, the booking fee is non-refundable, however if given more then 30 days notice a full refund of outstanding invoices will be returned.
In the highly unlikely event that I am unable to perform your marriage ceremony, I have a long list of celebrants who would jump at the chance to marry you.
Just to reiterate though, this would be highly unlikely! Unless I’m stuck in a hospital bed or have a major family event, I will be there to marry you with bells on!
I believe every person deserves to be happy and it would be my absolute pleasure and honour to marry all individuals.
