Marriage Celebrant Annette Oates

MY SPECIALTY lays in simple, *bespoke celebrations of Marriage – including ELOPEMENTS - with the primary focus being on the desired outcome of Validation & Legal Recognition for your Union! I also offer Renewal of Vows & Commitment ceremonies based on the same principals. Simple & Stylish with all the Essentials! My main areas of service are the South Morton Bay Island Group & Redland Bay – though I do continue to travel further afield by special arrangement. I can deliver a simple ceremony in line with my Back to Basics OR Kiss Me Quick Service Packages - Starting price $480. With care and attention to detail, your service will conform to all the legal requirements for a Marriage according to law in Australia – AND if your personal circumstances permit, the cost will be comparable to that of a Registry Office Wedding - only more significant as a result of choosing a location that’s relevant to you!! Where to Begin ...
