Can we do family readings?

Readings are a wonderful way to involve family and friends in your ceremony. It is a perfect way to include people you want to be a part of your ceremony. It may be a poem or some special words a family member has written. There are also many readings you may like to download, that represent the happy couple and what they mean to you.

FAQ

Where do we start?

When most couples start looking for a marriage celebrant, they have no idea where to start. You ask the question should our ceremony be long, short, funny or formal. There are many types of ceremonies, some where family and friends can be involved.

I would love the opportunity to meet you and discuss ways in which we can create the wedding that is true to you in a way that is beautiful and memorable. The ceremony we design together can be as simple or as elaborate as you wish, and you may want it to contain readings, music or maybe you have been to a wedding lately and have seen some other element that you would like in your ceremony.

What are the legal requirements for a marriage in Australia?

1. You must be 18 years of age. If one person is under age marriage is still possible by parental consent as per section 12 of the marriage act.

2. A Notice of Intended Marriage (N.O.I.M) must be lodged with a celebrant at least one calendar month prior to the wedding ceremony. I can prepare the N.O.I.M for your signatures and I will witness it. I must sight your original birth certificates if born in Australia, or a passport if born overseas. If parties are born overseas and are unable to obtain a birth certificate, a statutory declaration can be used.

Foreign language documents must be translated into English and a NAATI accredited Translation Certificate supplied. If either has been previously married, I will need to sight the Divorce papers, or Death certificate if applicable.

When should I play the music?

As your guests arrive, entrance of the bride, signing of the certificates, when the bride and groom depart as husband and wife, and when the guests congratulate the happy couple.

The music your choose for your wedding day is very personal. Your music may be live, a CD or USB as I have a PA system for your convenience.

How do we go about organising an application for a Marriage Visa / Fiance Visa?

I can help you with your application for a Fiance Visa, by writing a letter to the Australian Immigration Department. There is a booklet available which gives you a lot of information about partner migration.

What does your fee include?

My marriage ceremony costs include all meetings, email and phone discussions, completion and lodgement of your Notice of Intended Marriage, preparation of other legal documents, taking the legal responsibility for your wedding ceremony.

Your feedback is always important and I am happy to help with any questions which may arise after your wedding.

We recently had Kaye officiate our wedding, from our first meeting with her we knew that this was the celebrant for us. Her easy manner and professional and organised manner made for a stress free planning process. We had multiple compliments from our guests about how wonderfully Kaye matched our ceremony to our personalities. Would highly recommend Kaye for anyone planning to get married.

Kaye was wonderful. We had met a few times beforehand where she gave us ideas on how to write our vows. She delivered our story beautifully. Highly recommend.

Thanks Kaye for being part of our celebration. We started with llamas back to front, had to pause for a monumental nose bleed, switched our vows around - but it was a service that was just perfect for us. We appreciate you going along with our unusual journey.

Kaye officiated our wedding and it was absolutely magical. She tailored the ceremony to perfectly suit us as a couple and did so with such warmth and love that it felt like a family member was conducting the ceremony. Allowing us to incorporate traditional Celtic elements into the ceremony to align with our Scottish/ Irish heritage. We cannot fault her professionalism and beautiful nature. I will recommend Kaye to anyone in need of a celebrant she was perfection.

Advice for having your dog in your ceremony

Would love some advice! We def want to include our dog in our wedding ceremony! We want him as the ring bearer. Are they are any things to avoid or prepare for in advance? Thanks!

Kaye McGrath

Good afternoon, the only advise I have is, have your dog on a lead and enjoy your ceremony

How can I tell my sister her kids aren't invited to our wedding?

Hi there. We don't want to have kids at our wedding, but I also don't want to offend my sister. I adore my nieces but we want a particular vibe at our wedding. Any suggestions?

Kaye McGrath

A lot of weddings now the children are not invited, as it adds to the cost of the reception, and the overall cost of your wedding. I don't believe it is personal. If you describe to your sister exactly what you are planning, I am sure she will understand.

I'm not a religious but can I have my marriage ceremony in a church?

Kaye McGrath

Hi, yes you can get married in a church as long as you have permission, couples today love the fact that so many wedding venues have a chapel on their grounds, and the chapel has no religious content, so it's ideal for the bride who wants to walk down the isle but doesn't want to be in a church.
