💗 My dear couples, please note:💗
The marriage process in Australia is a two step process.
Whether you’re getting married in a Church, Registrar or going with a Civil Celebrant like myself, then firstly, a Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) form must be completed and submitted at least one full calendar month with a Marriage Celebrant before the ceremony date. ie.. if you both sign the NOIM on the 10/06, then your ceremony cannot happen until on or after the 10/07. This NOIM is transferable should the Celebrant you signed with not be able to perform the ceremony for whatever reason or you change your mind to go with them at the last minute. 🌸🌸🌸
From 1 January 2024:
All new NOIMs must only be signed and witnessed in the physical presence of an authorised witness.
