Can I Get Married Online in Melbourne?

No. You cannot get legally married online in Melbourne or anywhere else in Australia.

What must happen in person

The marriage itself must happen with:

  • both parties physically present
  • the celebrant physically present
  • two witnesses physically present

For a private celebrant marriage, the celebrant must also meet each party separately in person before the marriage.

What you can do online

You can do a lot of the admin online:

  • fill out the booking form
  • pay the fee
  • prepare the NOIM with NOIM Easy
  • ask questions by email
  • organise documents before the meeting

What you cannot do online

You cannot:

  • do the marriage itself by video call
  • do a proxy marriage
  • skip the in-person legal steps

If you are overseas

You can still start the process from overseas by:

  • preparing the NOIM
  • having it witnessed correctly for your location
  • getting your documents together
  • booking ahead

But the marriage itself still happens in person in Australia.
