FAQs
Q: Can I choose my own date and time?
A: Yes. You will see a calendar with available dates and times at the time of booking. If you want a date/time outside this range, get in touch with your request.
Q: Is my marriage recognised outside Australia?
A: Australian marriages are recognised worldwide. (Some countries may require an Apostile Stamp on the marriage certificate for them to register your marriage in their country.)
Q: How can I get married in Australia?
A: If you are 1) 18 or over, 2) not already married, 3) not in a prohibited relationship, and 4) consenting and willing to enter into marriage as defined by the law in Australia, then you can get married ASAP in Australia. Australian law requires one month’s notice be given by a form called the ‘Notice of intended marriage’.
Q: Can I bring my own photographer?
A: Yes. Choose the Quickie Wedding option. The Marriage Office requests access to photos to share via Social Media.
Q: Can I bring my own Celebrant?
A: Yes. Choose the venue hire option and enter a contract with your own Celebrant directly. They will need to provide evidence of current Public Liability Insurance prior to entering the space.
