Frequently Asked Questions

Think of it as a dial, not a ladder. The Legals Only is the no fuss, just us and two witnesses option. The Sweet Spot is a short, heartfelt ceremony with a sprinkle of your story woven in (elopement energy). The Big Day is the full experience, your love story, your people, your hype, done properly. If you want any personal touches at all, even a small one, I'd usually point you towards the Sweet Spot rather than Legals Only.

Your BDM (Births, Deaths and Marriages) certificate is your official marriage certificate, the one you'll actually need for things like changing your name or updating your details. It's included in every single package, so once your marriage is registered, I'll order it for you and you'll usually have it in hand within about 7 days.

Absolutely, I'll go wherever the love is. All my package prices are based on the Wollongong region, and travel costs apply for venues further out. Flick me your location and I'll let you know what that looks like.

As soon as you've locked in a date, really. Popular dates (hello, Saturdays in Autumn) get snapped up fast, so the earlier we chat, the better your chances of getting me. That said, if you're planning something quick and low key, I can sometimes work with short notice too, so don't be shy to ask.

NOIM stands for Notice of Intended Marriage, and it's the official form that needs to be lodged with me at least one calendar month before your wedding day (yes, it's a legal requirement, no, I don't make the rules). Don't stress though, this is exactly what I'm here for. Once you're locked in, I'll send it through and we'll sit down together to get it signed.

Yep, you'll need two witnesses who are over 18, and I'll need their full legal names for the paperwork. If you can't decide who gets the honour, might I suggest a raffle? I've done it, it's chaos but it's brilliant.

Please do! You still have to say the legal vows but everyone loves a good personal vow moment. Every package includes a vow guide to help you find the words, and if you want a hand drafting or workshopping them, that's exactly the kind of thing we can chat through together.

Of course, I'm part of the community myself! Love is love, full stop, and every ceremony I write is built around you as a couple, whoever you are and whatever your story looks like.

Weddings are living things, and I've learned to roll with it. If the weather turns or something shifts last minute, we figure it out together, calmly and without drama. That's what I'm here for.

Yes, every package includes a professional microphone and PA system, so every word (and every laugh) carries to the back row. You're also welcome to use it to play your ceremony music.

The moment I get home, I lodge your marriage documents with the registry and order your official BDM marriage certificate, which you'll usually receive within about 7 days. All you need to do is enjoy being married.

Definitely, I actually love this bit. We'll hop on a call for a vibe check, no pressure, no scripts, just a chat to see if we're the right fit for each other. If it feels right, we lock things in from there.
