Frequently Asked Questions
You decide.You can include as much or as little as you wish, and I will ensure the legal requirements are included. Most ceremonies are between 15 and 30 minutes. Can I write my own vows ? Yes you can. Couples are encouraged to make their ceremonies as personalised as they wish. I am pleased to work with you to develop your own unique ceremony. I can also assist with examples if you need them. You may have special cultural or lifestyle aspects which are important to you; these can of course be included. Can my family/friends be involved in the ceremony ? Of course. Other than as members of the wedding party, with traditional roles, couples often choose family members or friends to read verses; perform musical items; offer a blessing, etc. What papers do I need ? You will need to be able to present original legal documents to me prior to your wedding day. These include your Birth Certificate; your Passport is acceptable, if you are not an Australian citizen & were born overseas; your Decree Absolute, if divorced; if widowed, your spouse's Death Certificate. What if my Partner, or both of us, are living overseas or interstate? The documents described above are required. Once contact has been made, the process can be continued via mail, email, and/or telephone, with a face-to-face meeting to finalise all the arrangements and documentation prior to the wedding. Can I hold my Ceremony at home ? Yes, you can.
