ABSOLUTLEY! Your ceremony should be a true reflection of you and your partner. Every element, except the legally required wording, can be customised. Whether you prefer a concise legal wording-only ceremony or wish to incorporate readings and rituals involving loved ones, together, we'll curate a magical day that captures your unique love story.
You, your partner, some proof of ID and birth, 2 witnesses over the age of 18, some legal paperwork and wording on the day... oh and ME, the authorised marriage celebrant. Rest assured, I will handle all the necessary paperwork, ensuring everything is legally binding. Most importantly, we'll start by completing the Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) form one month (and no more than 18 months) prior to your wedding date .
