Remote witnessing is baaaaaaaack!!!!
To say I did a little happy dance around my kitchen when I heard this news last week is a freaking understatement 💃
Signing your NOIM just got a whole lot easier 👏
From today, (12/6/24)
“Marriage in Australia has been updated from the age of the horse and carriage with legislation passed today making it easier to start the legal paperwork for weddings.
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.
A remote witnessing option was put in place as a temporary measure in response to COVID-19. This amendment makes it permanent.
Remote witnessing of the NOIM by authorised witnesses, in Australia and overseas, provides a much cheaper and more convenient way for couples to meet the legal requirement to give at least one months’ notice before a marriage can be solemnised under the Marriage Act.
The change is not compulsory - marrying couples can still choose to sign and witness the NOIM in person, through the traditional, paper-based method.
Authorised celebrants will still be required to meet independently and in person with each party before they solemnise a marriage, to ensure both genuinely consent to the union.
And while the paperwork has now entered the digital age there’s no change on the day itself, with the happy couple, the authorised celebrant and two official witnesses all required to be there, in person, on the day of the marriage.” From The Attorney General, The Hon Mark Dreyfus.
🌟 Hey everyone! 🌟
Behind the scenes I’ve taken a few months off (ish) to focus on my baby and my kiddos. I realized I might have jumped back into work a bit too quickly this time around. But after slowing down and embracing my role as a mum, I’m feeling reenergized.
Yesterday’s wedding at was absolutely killer and my cup is full! Get ready to see more of my face around here. 💜
PS. Can not wait to see the pics from yesterday by 🤩
Thank you Jenn and Craig for your lovely words!! It was such a pleasure helping you get hitched!! 🥰🥰🥰

Those fresh married feels…
Another couple by yours truly 💞
Brylee and Tom…feat the some of the worlds cutest cows 🐮
bride
8 years of love, laughter, and endless support. Happy anniversary to my rock, my best friend, and the love of my life. You’ve shown me what unconditional love truly means, and I’m forever grateful for you.
In the spirit of VALENTINES 💘 I’m sharing this one from the archives! I can’t believe I haven’t shared the sh*t out of these two before!! Maybe I have 🤔 Coming across them in my galleries today I felt like I saw this day with fresh eyes again and just had to share.
My gosh.
RUTA + TISO
Eloped in secrecy and incredible intimacy. No guests, just me with a front row seat to this love fest. All the feels, none of the pressure. Beautiful.
SAVING THE TREES…one ceremony at a time 🌱
I made the switch from paper to iPad a couple of years ago now and I bloody love it!
I used to print pages and pages of ceremony scripts, now I have them all safely stored on my iPad.
As well as my script, I also have all your super important marriage documents to sign electronically with my fancy Apple pen 🖊️
By using the iPad it also means I can easily control your ceremony music (if you don’t have live music!).
Life is so much easier with the iPad. Except hot days. Hot days are not friends with iPads 🥵 buuuut I’ve figured out a cooling solution that works pretty well and so far I haven’t had an overheating issue 🙌🏻
You may feel like you’re signing for a package, but never fear you will always, ALWAYS sign the “pretty certificate” on paper 📝
Cheers to Amy + Deric’s photographer for capturing these action shots!
GOLDEN HOUR 🌤️
If you’re not capturing your love in this light you’re doing it wrong.
Be like Heather & Brad.
