Gold Package
Micro-Weddings or Elopements
Shorter than a full service marriage ceremony, the duration of a micro wedding ceremony is approx. 15 minutes. Though personalised, these ceremonies do not include a section which retells your relationship story, simple, yet still full of all the feels.
Micro wedding ceremonies are often requested by couples who want a brief ceremony, conducted before a small number of guests (twenty or less) They still want their celebration to be meaningful and feel every bit like a wedding, but they don’t care for the fuss or expense that often comes with a “typical” large scale wedding.
Micro wedding ceremonies are usually held mid-week (when venues don’t require a minimum spend) and are followed by a celebratory lunch or dinner.
The Gold Package includes...
- An initial, no-obligation meeting to discuss the legal requirements of a marriage and ceremony content. Should you wish to proceed, I would ask that you complete a booking form, sign my service agreement, and pay a non-refundable and non-transferrable booking fee to secure my services.
- A second meeting, usually over Zoom, if required, during which time we will discuss the ceremony draft and attend to the legal documentation. I will also need to sight the identification documents.
- A professionally printed commemorative marriage certificate.
- Completion of all legal paperwork and lodgement on your behalf.
- Vow cards and access to my help resources.
- I will always dress in code with the day.
Silver Package
Legals Only
As the name suggests, this is a very brief ceremony conducted before two legal witnesses, at a location agreed upon with celebrant.
I recite the legal words, you each recite the legal words and then we, together with your witnesses, sign the required documentation. The ceremony duration is less than five minutes.
The Silver Package includes...
- A meeting where we can attend to the lodgement of your Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM)*. Please note, a NOIM must be lodged at least one calendar month prior to your ceremony (Lodging your marriage paperwork in NSW). I would ask that you complete a booking form, sign my service agreement, and pay a non-refundable and non-transferrable booking fee to secure my services.
- A Legals only ceremony.
- A professionally printed commemorative marriage certificate.
- Completion of all legal paperwork and lodgement with the relevant authorities on your behalf.
* Couples who reside interstate or overseas can execute the NOIM in their state or country of residence before an authorised person and forward the document to me. It is not essential that we meet face to face prior to the day of your ceremony.
If you are in Australia the NOIM can now be signed/witnessed via zoom. This is a temporary change to the law as a result of COVID known as the Extension of Temporary Remote Witnessing Arrangements and currently only applies until December 31st 2023.
My pricing changes each year. Please contact me for the current pricing on each package.
