Get Expert AdviceDo celebrants usually recommend pre-marriage counselling or courses?
Maureena Tilley Civil Celebrant
Good morning, Celebrants are legally obligated to provide information via leaflets, to the couple who are to be married. They do not need to ask the couple if they intend to enrol in a course, however it is important to let the couple know that such courses are available. Religious celebrations e.g. in the Catholic Church - usually request that couples attend a course run locally to them. Some couples enjoy these courses immensely. Civil Celebrants are not obligated to recommend a particular course.

How much should I expect to pay for a celebrant?
And is it cheaper to go for a religious officiant? I'm not fussed about the cost just want to know what to budget for. :)

Happy Monday. There is no set payment for a Celebrant to charge for their services, and there is a wide range of charges. Travel costs for a particular celebrant can up the cost - for example a Melbourne Celebrant who needs to travel to Lorne. But if you love the Celebrant then you will need to pay the extra. In my expereice Celebrant chages range from $300 to $1500. Remember however, that a higherr charge does not necessarily mean a better celebrant. There are some wonderful celebrants who charge around $600 and will even include travel. Good luck in your choice. Maureena
Can I get married in both a religious and civil ceremony?
My fiance is muslim and I am catholic, we want to respect the mother and have a 'Katb al kitab' but this happens on a different day to the reception. On the day of the reception we want to have a civil ceremony, please help. Need some advice. Thank you

Hello. No unfortunaltewy you can only be married once, however I have performed some beautiful ceremonies where a Priest and Celebrant work together to perform the ceremony. Many Civill Celebrants are willing to include prayers and blessings in their ceremonies, and to respect and include cultural aspects of a couple who wish for a more spiritual ceremony. best wishes.

Hi Michael, What a beautiful setting you and Jessica chose for your wedding. It was such a delight to be your celebrant. I never imagined I would have Bart Simpson looking over me during a ceremony! It was so memorable. Maureena
