Welcome!

I would like to begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we gather today and pay respects to their Elders past, present and emerging. I extend that respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples here today.

My name is [CELEBRANT]. I am duly authorised by law to solemnise marriages according to law. But more importantly, I'm thrilled to be part of today's proceedings and get you two hitched!

Before you are joined in marriage in my presence and in the presence of these witnesses, I am to remind you of the solemn and binding nature of the relationship into which you are now about to enter. Marriage, according to law in Australia, is the union of two people to the exclusion of all others, voluntarily entered into for life.

And now it's time for the vows (and exchanging of rings if relevant).

[Partner 1], please repeat after me: "I call upon the persons here present, to witness that I, [Full Name], take you, [Full Name] to be my lawful wedded husband / wife / spouse / partner in marriage."

(Ring placed on partner's hand if relevant. Personalised vows shared if relevant.)

[Partner 2], it's your turn now: "I call upon the persons here present, to witness that I, [Full Name], take you, [Full Name], to be my lawful wedded husband / wife / spouse / partner in marriage."

(Ring placed on partner's hand if relevant. Personalised vows shared if relevant.)

On behalf of myself and these two fabulous and exclusive witnesses, I'd like to thank you for allowing us to be part of this brief, yet momentous occasion.

It is now my great pleasure to pronounce you husband & wife / wife & wife / husband & husband / partner & partner / married at last! You may now kiss!

[Partner 1], do you take [Partner 2] to be your plus one, your co-pilot, your confidante, bestie and awesomely wedded wife / husband / spouse? "I do." Please place the ring on [Partner 2]'s finger. (Personal vows if relevant.)
