Your Legal Wedding Checklist
When we catch up to do your paperwork, one of the key steps is checking your ID and legal documents. It’s a simple part of the process—but super important to make sure your marriage is valid.
Here’s what you’ll need to bring:
A valid passport (Australian or overseas)
OR
An official birth certificate
One of these is required under Australian law to verify your date and place of birth.
Driver licence
Australian proof of age or photo card
Australian citizenship certificate (with accompanying photo ID)
Tertiary student ID card (with full name and photo)
If either of you have been married before, I’ll also need to see evidence that the previous marriage has legally ended. That means:
A divorce certificate, or
A death certificate of your previous spouse
If any of your documents are not in English, they’ll need to be translated into English by a certified translator.
💡 Not sure if your ID is acceptable? Just ask me! I’ll let you know exactly what works and what to bring.
And don’t worry if you don’t have everything ready in one go. I can start the process and lodge your Notice of Intended Marriage with just one valid ID. The rest of the documents can be provided any time before your big day.
婚礼法律流程小贴士
我们在见面填写结婚资料时,其中一个重要步骤就是核对你们的身份证明和法律文件。这一步虽然简单,但对确保婚姻的法律有效性至关重要。
以下是你们需要准备的文件:
有效的护照(澳洲或其他国家的均可)
或
官方的出生证明
根据澳洲婚姻法律,必须提供护照或出生证明其中之一,用于确认出生日期和地点。
驾照
澳洲年龄证明卡或照片身份证
澳洲公民证书(需配合其他带照片的身份证件)
大学或高等教育学生证(带姓名和照片)
如果你们其中一方曾经结过婚,还需要出示前段婚姻已终止的证明文件:
离婚证明,或
前配偶的死亡证明
如果你提供的文件不是英文版,那需要附上由认证翻译人员翻译成英文的文件。
💡 不确定你的身份证件是否符合要求?欢迎随时联系我确认,我会告诉你哪些可以使用,是否需要其他文件来补充。
另外,如果你暂时还没有准备好全部文件也没关系。我可以先用其中一份有效身份证明来帮你提交《结婚意向通知书》,剩下的文件只需在婚礼前补交即可。

It’s one of the most common questions couples ask me—“Do we really need to do a rehearsal?”
The short answer is: you don’t have to, but it can make a huge difference—especially if you’re the type of person who likes to feel prepared, calm, and confident walking into your big day.
很多新人都会问我:“我们真的需要彩排吗?”
简单来说:不是必须的,但如果你希望在婚礼当天能够从容自如、心里有底,那彩排婚礼绝对是值得考虑的一项服务。
