Hello to all the fabulous couples out there who have set their wedding date and are looking to book a celebrant or have booked a celebrant. There have been some amendments to the Marriage Act that have recently come into force.

Amendments to the Marriage Act 1961 allow a Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) to be witnessed via videoconferencing, meaning couples will no longer have to make two trips to see the celebrant in person. Remote witnessing will be especially convenient for couples travelling from interstate for their weddings, as well those in rural, remote or regional parts of Australia. The change is not compulsory - marrying couples can still choose to sign and witness the NOIM in person, through the traditional, paper-based method.

Secondly and most importantly, authorised celebrants are required to meet independently and in person with each party before they solemnise a marriage, to ensure both genuinely consent to the union. These separate meetings can be combined with the signing of the Declaration of No Legal Impediment to Marry form that also needs to be signed before your wedding ceremony.

I'm happy to answer any question you may have about these new changes to the Marriage Act.

Here's to your love, laughter and happily ever after.

I love this quote. This doesn’t just apply to business, but to our personal relationships as well. Thinking together is a perfect way to stay focused on your hopes, dreams, and love for each other.

True dialogue in teams and leadership is not just about talking; it's about thinking together. It's about listening, understanding, and co-creating solutions.

Effective leaders and cohesive teams thrive on open dialogue, driving innovation and success.

Let’s use the power of collective thought and transform our workplaces!

Make sure your Celebrant is legally authorised to solemnise your marriage.

You must be married by an authorised marriage celebrant to be legally married in Australia. There are four types of authorised marriage celebrants: Commonwealth-registered marriage celebrants, Commonwealth-registered religious marriage celebrants, Ministers of religion who are from a recognised deno...

I’m the kind of celebrant who loves to personalise wedding ceremonies. Last weekend I married Kye & Nikki at the international cruise terminal aboard the Pacific Encounter. They wanted fun & relaxed. To celebrate their wedding I created a ship themed signing table. They got to keep a magnetic whiteboard with a personal poem and magnets as a keepsake.

As a surprise, during the cruise they were presented with messages in a bottle from all their guests. The key rings were to hang on their legends.

Congratulations to Mr & Mrs Crowhurst. It was an absolute pleasure to marry you yesterday. Enjoy your honeymoon cruise.

Imagine exchanging your vows amidst the opulence of a P&O Cruise Ship, surrounded by your nearest and dearest, and then indulging in a 7-day cruise of pure bliss and relaxation.

Today I get to marry Kye & Nikki. What a beautiful ceremony it is going to be.

Last Friday I had the pleasure of marrying these two beautiful people. It was a pleasure to be able to introduce them as Mr & Mrs Lee.

Our upcoming Breakfast meeting has an exciting speaker!

Here's a little more about the Small Business Commissioner, Dominique Lamb!

Dominique Lamb assumed the role of Small Business Commissioner in December 2022. With a robust background in industrial relations and employment law, she brings a unique blend of legal expertise and advocacy skills to her position.
Dominique's primary objective is to enhance the operating environment for small businesses in Queensland and to reduce the time and costs associated with resolving disputes involving small business. In her capacity as Commissioner, Dominique has embarked on a proactive engagement strategy, collaborating closely with governmental bodies, industry organisations, and regional stakeholders. One of Dominique's notable achievements has been the significant expansion of the Small Business Friendly (SBF) Program, which now boasts participation from 48 Councils. Additionally, she has taken proactive steps to establish three new roundtables, providing platforms for industry representatives and regional stakeholders to voice their concerns and contribute to policy discussions.
Beyond her professional endeavours, Dominique is deeply committed to social causes, particularly those addressing domestic and family violence.

No weddings this weekend, but the secret is to book weddings in Townsville where your grand babies are. First birthday party, NOIM signing & a draft ceremony meeting. Living my best life.

Do you have any friends who have been engaged for a while, but are putting off setting a date?

Picture this ... a romantic rendezvous at the airport! You arrive engaged and fly away as husband and wife!!!

Book Me! Book Your Tickets! Get ready to say, "I Do" and let your love take flight!

Do you have any friends who have been engaged for a while, but are putting off setting a date...?

Let's Elope! Your wedding ceremony will be all about you! You can say, "I Do" with just you and two of your besties as your witnesses.

Want only the two of you there, then I'll bring the witnesses. You can share your personal vows with just each other.

If you want an easy way to tell your friends & family, there are lots of ways: we can video your vows ; we can take a photo of you exchanging rings; you can hold a sign that says, "just married" & you can share it with your family and friends. The options are endless.

Do you have any friends who have been engaged for a while, but are putting off setting a date.

Maybe its because the idea of having a big wedding is daunting?
Maybe they are saving their pennies for a house or have other commitments?
Maybe they really want to run away and get married, but are worried what their friends and family will say?

Please send them my way. I would love to help them say, "I Do"!

Follow this post to find out lots of different ways I can make this happen!
