Marriage Bureau
How do you get married in Melbourne in a Civil Ceremony? Easy!
You have lots of great choices, you can either choose a lovely registry wedding with just a small group of people attending your ceremony, with prices starting from only $270 for the whole process and ceremony room - or - you can choose a professional celebrant to come to your location for an average cost of between $650 and $1,000 - depending on where and when your ceremony will be held and depending upon your individual requirements.
With both options you will need to sign and lodge your Notice of Intended Marriage one month prior to the date of the ceremony. Call Marriage Bureau - South Yarra and we can tailor an option to suit exactly what you need.
Option One:
If you are on a budget and would like a Victorian registry wedding ceremony - or if you just want to quickly elope, yet still have a very special day to remember, there is an excellent option that includes a lovely ceremony room set in a private old renovated South Yarra mansion, and you can bring anything from two witnesses right up to about 30 people to celebrate your special day - and all the legals, signing of Notice of Intended Marriage, the celebrant and the final Marriage Certificate paperwork is fully included! Check out the price list for all the options - there are different prices on different days.
