About

I’m 30 (something 😉) so there’s lots to tell, but in brief.. I grew up in Melbourne, met hubby at high school, reconnecting 10 years later while adventuring Europe. 11 years on, (married for 6) we have created our dream life together on the Sunshine Coast, making the most of the glorious weather and relaxed lifestyle while we raise our beautiful girls Vada and Elke as they lead us on many adventures.

FAQ

If you want to have a legal ceremony you need 1 months notice. You must fill out a notice of intended marriage (NOIM) and it needs to be signed 1 month before the big day with an authorised person (like myself!!!) 

NOIM attached: 

https://www.publications.qld.gov.au/dataset/32aa6b54-1309-4828-9221-80b77939f22d/resource/00a3c5cf-fc4f-4ab0-a559-6802d725362c/download/notice-of-intended-marriage.pdf

You can legalise the ceremony at a later date with two witnesses if you want to have a ceremony earlier than 1 month. 

I have done this several times before, please get in touch if you wanted to chat about your options. 

Sadly no, you need to apply for your legal marriage certificate with Births, Deaths and Mariages. 

This is the Queensland link to BDM- Remmeber you need to apply in your own state.

We knew from the minute we met Bernadette that she was the perfect celebrant for us! When every other celebrant was preaching to us about what “they” could do, how good “they” were and how “they” were so special, Bernadette didn’t toot her own horn, rather she asked US about “our” relationship, “our” connection”, and what “we” wanted for our ceremony. Bernadette really took the time to get to know us on a deep and personal level and customized our ceremony to be exactly how we wanted it, incorporating little details from our history, our favourite memories, our family and friends, and the exact vibe we were after. And she did it all with a huge contagious smile and gorgeously fun personality! You can really tell that she loves what she does, cares about her couples and takes time and effort to ensure we are 100% happy! LOVE HER!

We couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant! Bernadette was so friendly and supportive. She made us feel at ease and went above and beyond! We wanted a laid back, fun ceremony and that’s what she gave us! She was professional as well as our friend. We had the best day and owe a lot of it to Bernadette!

How can I tell my sister her kids aren't invited to our wedding?

Hi there. We don't want to have kids at our wedding, but I also don't want to offend my sister. I adore my nieces but we want a particular vibe at our wedding. Any suggestions?

Ceremonies by Bernadette

I would find some local accommodation ideas and baby sitters and then address the "issue". 

Telling her firstly you wont be having children and then following on with but, I have some great accommodation and baby sitting options so you can still bring them and they can be close by but can also get baby sat so you can let your hair down.  

There are lots of reason you might not want children at your wedding so think of a few that might resonate with your sister to let her down easy. 

I have children and know first hand that even if they are easy going kids, they will still be hanging off you, wanting food, sleep, drinks.. Having a child free wedding allows all parents t let their hair down for the night and make the most of their time away. Highly recommend (from experience).
