Frequently Asked Questions

How soon can I get married?

You need to lodge your Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) at least one month before your wedding date. I can help you and explain the ID and timing requirements clearly.

We just want to sign the papers. Can we just have a legal-only ceremony?

Sure! Something short, sincere, which covers the legal wording and vows. Perfect if you prefer low-key or are planning a separate celebration later.

Will you help us write our vows and the ceremony script?

Absolutely. I’ll provide prompts and examples, then craft or edit the ceremony so it sounds like you.

Do we need witnesses?

Two witnesses over 18 must be present to sign your certificates on the day.

Can you include multiple languages or cultural elements?

Happily. I often weave in short greetings, blessings, or traditions so your families feel included and represented.

Do you travel outside Melbourne?

Yes, across Melbourne and regional Victoria – even internationally. Travel beyond 100km may attract a small additional fee; I’ll confirm any costs upfront.
