What's a paperwork-only marriage?

A paperwork-only marriage is the simple legal version of getting married.

It is for couples who want to be married without turning the day into a wedding.

We are private authorised celebrants providing a registry-style service. We are not a government registry.

What is included

• The legal marriage solemnisation
• The required legal words
• Signing the marriage documents
• Registration of the marriage after it takes place
• Help understanding the paperwork before the day

What is not included

• Aisle moments
• A personal ceremony script
• Guest seating and a wedding setup
• Styling, music cues, or a big event feel
• A full celebrant wedding service

Who this suits

• Couples who want the cheapest and simplest way to get married
• Couples who care more about being married than having a wedding
• Couples sorting out visa, paperwork, or legal timing
• Couples planning a bigger celebration later
• Couples who want a friend to lead the symbolic part later on

How it works

1. Click Get Married.
2. Fill out the booking form and pay the fee.
3. Prepare your Notice of Intended Marriage. NOIM Easy makes this much easier.
4. Have the NOIM witnessed properly and send the paperwork to us.
5. Once the paperwork is received, we confirm a date, time and place subject to availability.
6. On the day, you meet us with two witnesses, say the legal words, sign, and get married.

Important to know

• This is still a real legal marriage.
• You usually need to give at least one month notice.
• Both of you must be there in person.
• Two witnesses aged 18 or over are required.
• If you want more than paperwork, this is not the right service.
