Surprise Weddings
Surprise weddings are usually family oriented no-hassle, stress free occasions. Imagine your family and friends faces when you announce they are not only here for your engagement party or other special occasion, for example but they are also here to witness your marriage!
Surprise Weddings are just absolutely magical!!!
For most couples having a surprise wedding, the surprise is usually announced to the guests just before the couple are to get married. This means, they already have their family and friends at the location for another reason, i.e. Engagement, Special Birthday, New Years, Baby Naming, Visiting relative, or any other significant event.
Legally in Australia, both the Bride and Groom have to agree and be aware of the impending marriage. The normal legal process applies. Neither the Bride nor Groom can organise a wedding to marry their partner and surprise it on him or her on the day of their wedding.
A Notice of Intended Marriage form needs to be completed at least one month and one day before the wedding. I can help you plan the best surprise wedding of your dreams and maintain your absolute privacy.
Shhhhhhh..... it’s a secret!
