The Process

For those who like to know the go, this journey map (organised paragraphs) will be your jam.

It explains the rough outline of our journey together as celebrant and loved-up-couple. I say rough, because every couple’s needs are different, and well, you just deserve your own unique experience.

Step 1

Want meet up to see if I'm the Vegemite to your honey and toast?  We can do that with absolutely no strings attached. I get it, you want to try before you buy. Let's use this catch up to find out a bit about one another and what you're after.  P.s We do this over Zoom chat. Portal

Step 2

So I am your Vegemite?! Hooray! I think you made a good decision. I'm going send you an email, it’ll have a bunch of stuff in it but not too much to overwhelm you - and it’ll help me get started on bringing your ceremony to life. it’s a pretty cruisy process all in all.

Step 3

We’re going to fill out your legal paperwork, such as the Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM), I’ll sight your identification documents, and we’ll have some general chit-chat. This’ll most likely be over Zoom.

This applies only to a legal ceremony, if you’ve selected the commitment ceremony of vow renewal, we’ll skip straight to step 4.

Step 4

Let's catch up face-to-face. Here, we'll fill in a document called No Legal Impediment to Marriage (confirming there's no legal reason why you can't marry one another and again, only for a legal ceremony), have some chats, and make sure we're all on the same page for the big hullabaloo.

Step 5

It's The Big Day. Well I'm excited, and you've got butterflies. Totally normal. I'll arrive no later than 30 minutes before your ceremony. I'll be there waiting for the signal that we've worked out prior to the big day that will let me know you're ready to begin. Then…it's go time!

Step 6

You can dust your hands off now, your work is done. I'll register your marriage with Births, Deaths and Marriages (BDM) in the state you were married. While we're waiting to hear everything has been processed successfully, have a burger and send your highlights reel. Once I hear back from BDM, I'll let you know and then arrivederci, love birds.
