Our couples are often people who may not necessarily wish to have a large or expensive wedding, but still want a warm and professional style ceremony conducted by a highly experienced Commonwealth Registered Civil Celebrant that they will remember. They are also couples who may be having a larger celebration overseas or later down the track, but would like to have their marriage officiated first. Our celebrants make the process of getting married a simple, personal and easy experience.
The administrative offices and ceremony rooms are conveniently located in a private older style cream coloured terrace house on Punt Hill at 915 Punt Road, South Yarra, Victoria, 3141.

Couples who marry at the Melbourne Private Marriage Registry may choose to invite just their two witnesses, right up to around 40 guests.

We started our Pricate Marriage Registry in 2010 as the first private registry to offer Victorian couples a fabulous alternative to the Government's Victoria Marriage Registry in Spring Street, with the short and long-term goal to offer ALL couples the wedding they had always wished for and always dreamed of having. We waited years for this, and finally on Friday 8 December, 2017, the Same-sex Marriage Bill was signed into law by the Governor-General. LGBTQIA+ couples who had already married overseas would finally have their relationships recognised in Australia from midnight that night, and the first same-sex marriage ceremonies could occur from the 9th of January 2018.
Our fabulous celebrants are always available to assist you to lodge your Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) form. Under Australian law it is mandatory that a Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) - 'Form 13 (Regulation 38)' is lodged with your celebrant no less than one month and no more than 18 months, from the proposed marriage date. If you would like to have your ceremony at the Melbourne Private Marriage Registry, then it is easy to lodge your NOIM with us to be married in one month's time! Call us today on (03) 9820 1119 to book a time to lodge your Notice or to get a copy of a step-by-step guide to getting married with us here at our fabulous Wedding Ceremony rooms.
For overseas guests who plan to marry in Victoria, Melbourne Private Marriage Registry can provide the perfect wedding ceremony and venue as a very affordable service for you. Before you can be legally married in Australia, you will need to sign a Notice of Intended Marriage Form. There are special requirements if you are getting your NOIM form witnessed overseas.
