Here’s the deal…

A Civil Registrar does the legal stuff. It’s an important part of getting married but the format is more structured, with less flexibility around the content, wording and people involved.

A Celebrant gives you the freedom.

~ Freedom to tell your story your way.
~ Freedom to add rituals, readings, music, or moments of pure mischief.
~ Freedom to make it unapologetically, unmistakably yours.

So what about the legal bit?
Simple.

1. Give notice at your local register office (at least 29 days before).

2. Pop in on a different day for the legal bits with two witnesses.

3. Boom—you’re officially hitched.

Think of it as the quiet prelude to your real wedding day.

The legal ceremony makes it official. The celebrant ceremony makes it yours.

And when it comes to that day?
You’ll get a pro storyteller, in the form of Cerith + The Celebration - turning your “I do” into the best love story ever told.
