I am extremely phobic of being touched, but at weddings the couple always kisses. Is it a requirement, or are there different things I can do? If so, what?
Karen Hamilton Celebrant
Kissing is not required - do what you are both comfortable with. You could simply embrace or share a flower/token or share a toast of champagne or join hands & turn to your guests and raise your arms in celebration. Enjoy your day!

can marriage celebrants perform religious ceremonies?
Karen Hamilton Celebrant
The wedding ceremony is the creation and formalising of marriage which is a legal union. Civil ceremonies can include some religious components if you wish, such as a reading from the Bible. However a celebrant cannot lead everyone in prayer. If you would like this included in your ceremony it is probably best to have your wedding in a church. It does not matter whether you choose a garden, backyard or church - as long as the person leading the service is authorised by law to perform weddings you are still married! Hope this helps, Karen Hamilton
is the ceremony the only part that HAS to happen for the marriage to be legal?
Karen Hamilton Celebrant
At least one month before the wedding day there is some more paperwork which has to be done. Your celebrant will guide you through and make this an easy process but on the day 'YES' the ceremony is the only thing which makes it a legal marriage. The ceremony reminds everyone that you have decided to spend the rest of your lives together. The reception is a chance to relax, celebrate and have fun with those family and friends important to you. Just remember to enjoy the moment!
