The Marriage Office Process

Step 1: Book Online

Complete our simple online booking form. Within seconds, you'll have your marriage service booked.

Step 2: Notice of Intended Marriage

We'll help you complete your Notice of Intended Marriage form correctly. This must be done at least one calendar month before your marriage date - but don't worry, we'll guide you through it. Once this has been received we can choose a date to marry.

Step 3: Documentation

Provide your identification documents (passport or birth certificate plus photo ID). If you've been married before, you'll need to show your divorce papers or death certificate. Our celebrant helps with the process.

Step 4: Get Married

Meet us at the agreed time and location with your witnesses (or use our witness service). Sign your marriage documents, and you're legally married! It's that simple.

All Done!

You'll receive your ceremonial marriage certificate on the day. We'll take care of registering your marriage, and your official certificate will be available to order if you need it.
