Just the two of you, two witnesses, and the paperwork that makes it official. The Short & Sweet is all about keeping it short, simple, and stress-free — perfect for couples who want the “bare minimum (but make it legal).”

What The Short & Sweet includes:

Meeting 1: We sign the legal pre-ceremony marriage paperwork and chat about your ceremony vision
Meeting 2: We work through the draft ceremony script and finalise logistics
Lodgement of the Notice of Intended Marriage
Communication via emails and phone calls to answer all your questions
Lightly personalised but streamlined ceremony script with legal wording
Arrival at the ceremony location before the ceremony to check everything runs smoothly
Delivery of 5–10 minute legal-only ceremony with minimal storytelling and very brief personal touches (if you’re after more of an intimate retelling of your love story, see The Signature)
Completion of all legal requirements, including facilitation of the signing of marriage paperwork and your very own decorative marriage certificate
Lodgement of all marriage paperwork with the Birth Deaths and Marriages
Confirmation once your marriage has been formally registered
Guidance on how to obtain your Official Marriage Certificate which is issued by Births Deaths and Marriages office once I’ve lodged all paperwork

*Additional costs:

Travel fees may apply for ceremonies beyond 150 km from Brisbane, depending on location and logistics.

Ceremonies need two witnesses by law—if you need me to provide them, there’s a little extra cost.
