About
Although an Aussie for most of my life, I was born in Ireland and have a background in social work and Training. I became a Celebrant almost accidentally when some neighbours asked if they could take wedding photos in our garden. When the wedding party came in I realised this is what I was meant to do. When a couple choose me, I feel they place a special trust in me to give them one of the best experiences of their life and so I am always willing to go the extra mile to deliver.

It is a little unclear whether you mean how do you get married and you mean the Notice of Intended Marriage or how you get your Marriage Certificate , on the basis that you mean your endorsed copy of your Marriage Certificate, the following applies.
Your Celebrant will discuss this with you. Many Celebrants now register your wedding online with Births Deaths and Marriages and they can fill in the details of your application for your Marriage Certificate. You will then receive an email from BDM confirming your application for your Marriage Certificate and asking you to pay the fee. Once you have done this your Certificate will be mailed to you. If your Celebrant does not register your marriage online, then they may be able to supply you with the application form and on this form you can provide your credit card details. This application form is then posted to BDM and then when processed the Marriage Certificate will be posted to you. Alternatively you can take the form to your local BDM office and apply in person.
Who's responsible for lifting the bride's veil?
Anne Spragg - Marriage Celebrant
The beautiy about having a Civil Celebrant is that really you can do whatever you want and many modern brides do not have veils, especially for outdoor weddings, as the veil can be very distracting as it blows in any wind. But following the long standing tradition, normally the bride's father would lift her veil as he presents her to her husband, but equally acceptable the bride can lift her own veil or the groom can lift the bride's veil usually before saying vows.
