Not every couple wants the big wedding with the venue, the guest list, and the formalities — that’s what the Marriage Registry Ceremony is for. Some just want to get legally married, keep it simple, and move on with life or bigger plans — like travel, a house, or a private celebration later.

This Paperwork-Only Ceremony is a modern alternative to the traditional registry office.

No cold government buildings here — instead, we can meet somewhere meaningful to you. That could be over coffee, at your hotel, on the beach, in the hinterland, or even by the side of the road with a view!

What’s Involved in the Mobile Marriage Registry Ceremony?

To make your marriage legal in Australia, we complete a few key steps:

  • Lodge your Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) at least 30 days before your ceremony

  • Show valid ID (passport or birth cert + photo ID)

  • Bring 2 witnesses over 18 to the ceremony or we can utilise some happy humans nearby

  • Exchange the legally required words

  • Sign your Marriage Certificates

  • I submit all documents to Births, Deaths & Marriages (BDM) for official registration

You’re then legally hitched — and yes, we can toast with coffee, bubbles, or cheers from your VIPs.

Total Package Price: $660 incl. GST

This is a relaxed, fully legal, and meaningful way to say “We Do”

No stress, no fluff, just love.
