Weddings: A refresher course in the legalities

The legislation around the registration of marriage has changed in the past few years. Also, celebrants are now expected to complete all of the legal documentation online via the Marriage Celebrants Portal. This session will go through all the relevant procedures to refresh your minds (or perhaps inform you for the first time) on how to navigate through the legal requirements as a celebrant.

Together we will explore the legal requirements of the Marriage Act (1961) and familiarise ourselves with the Marriage Celebrants Portal
