This week has seen the final signature placed on the Same-Sex Marriage bill by the Governor General in Australia, making it possible for same sex couples to marry legally from 9 December. However, legitimately, any couples wishing to tie the knot must give their wedding celebrant a period of one month, under the existing marriage laws, to file a Notice of intended Marriage, which means that the very first, same-sex weddings can take place from 9 January 2018.
The enormous buzz of marriage equality
With this announcement, many couples who have waited very patiently to be married, some for many years, are now booking their venues and celebrants really quickly, with a flurry in the market availability. With the expectation of so many more weddings to be scheduled and planned, you need to act quickly, as venues and Celebrants will very quickly be booked up for your chosen dates.
