“Notice of Intended Marriage” …this is a form prospective couples must successfully submit approximately 3 months prior to their wedding.  The funny thing was that we weren’t aware of it until now.  Oops!  I guess this explains how the celebrant is able to turn up with the “red book” (marriage register) with all the couple’s details filled in.

We hope no other about-to-be-wedded couples are in the same boat, but in case there are, here’s where you can download the form:

Don’t forget to have your original birth certificates and passports on-hand when you get the form witnessed!
