MARRIAGE CELEBRANT
We are proud to be a registered with the Attorney-Generals Department and have the ability to nominate our Ordained Pastors to become marriage celebrants under the banner of Connexions Ltd. We are listed as a recognised denomination under the Marriage Act 1961.
Marriage celebrants are people who are legally allowed to perform marriages in Australia.
Being a marriage celebrant is a special and important role in the community. It also attracts serious legal responsibilities. Failure to meet those responsibilities can have serious consequences.
There are a number of steps involved in becoming a marriage celebrant under the banner of Connexions Ltd.
You will need to:
- Successfully complete a set reading assignment
- Successfully answer a series of legal questions about marriage law and process
- Successfully fill out ‘dummy forms’ to test your knowledge of the process of preparing the marriage forms for a wedding according to the Marriage Act.
- Yearly subscription of $100
Once this has been completed we will nominate you to the Registrar of your state who will in turn assess you as being a fit and proper person by the Registrar of Marriage Celebrants
To begin the process please contact us directly.
