Covid Weddings

I am up to date with all the Government and NSW health regulations and have performed numerous weddings during these challenging pandemic times.  I will work with you to adhere to any restrictions put in place and ensure that your wedding is still a beautiful and heartfelt experience.  We can also zoom or facetime in guests if necessary. Flexibility and good communication are key!  All money is transferrable to a new date if needed. 

 

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 phone/zoom. Please contact me on 0400 550 919 for further information.
