FAQS
Can I have my ceremony anywhere?
Yes you can! If you choose a celebrant to lead your wedding then you can have a ceremony literally anywhere. Plus you’d get a much more personalised and bespoke ceremony. But it does mean you would need to complete the legal paperwork separately, e.g. at the register office.
Can a celebrant perform a legal marriage?
The law currently means that celebrants cannot perform the legal aspects of a marriage. However, the paperwork is not the fun part of a marriage - that's where a celebrant comes in! Usually a couple using a celebrant will have the legal aspects of their marriage carried out a day or so before their wedding celebration. Usually this will just be the couple and two witnesses. The real celebration happens with their family and friends and all the 'traditional' aspects can be done during this, such as best man, bridesmaids,ring exchanges and vows.
