Let’s get married!
You’ve got the perfect partner, you’ve got the ring, you’ve got the dress, I can’t help you with any of these but can definitely take you from here to “Just Married”
Whether it will be just the two of you and your witnesses on a beach at sunset or dinner for 100 of your family and friends there’s a few basics to start wth.
Let’s meet, zoom or call each other to discuss what you want your marriage ceremony to be and if you think I am the right celebrant for you.
Some things to consider before we do.
Are you both on the same page, or even the same chapter about what you want your wedding to be? Most couples want a simple, relaxed ceremony but with a definite sense of occasion and I think this is the perfect combination.
What do you want it to look like? Sound like? Feel like? Who do you want to be involved?
What is your story and what do you want to share?
The actual ceremony is not something you need to stress about. It is my job to pull all your ideas and words together to create the perfect ceremony for you. I start off by talking with, and listening to you. I give you some ceremony ideas for you to get a feel for what you do and don’t want. I then take all your ideas and suggestions and prepare a draft and then we work together to create a final version. You can have as much input as you want along the way.
Pre Wedding Paperwork
Paperwork is boring, so let’s get it out of the way so we can focus on the more enjoyable aspects of planning a ceremony.
If you are over 18 and if you are not already married to someone else then go straight to the Notice of Intended Marriage
You need to complete this form. This is all the paperwork required before your wedding so isn’t too onerous.
Your celebrant will also need to see evidence of your date and place of birth and photographic id.
Once the form is witnessed and in your celebrants hands or inbox, you can get married at any time after one month.
Sounds easy right?
