Only the legally required components of the marriage ceremony with just two witnesses (and a photographer if desired). Perfect for elopements!
Meetings and paperwork can all be done remotely (via email and zoom). The wedding can take place at a private location of your choosing (upper Blue Mountains only) or in Tina Marie’s office or under her weeping cherry tree (Leura).
You can also live-stream the ceremony to family and friends if you choose. No PA.
Planning and Paperwork
You can come to meet me in person at my office in Leura or we can do everything via zoom. It’s totally up to you. ID documents required are passports, or birth certificate and drivers licence. Divorce papers if applicable. The paperwork is easy and painfree I promise.
For Overseas Couples
The Blue Mountains is indeed a truly spectacular location for an Australian wedding.
Non-citizens and non-residents of Australia are allowed to be married in Australia provided the Notice of Intended Marriage is lodged with me within the required time frame (one month prior to service). It must be signed and witnessed by an Australian Diplomatic Officer, Australian Consular Officer, employee of the Commonwealth or Australian Trade Office or a Notary Public.
Planning your special day can be easily arranged via email and/or zoom.
