Marriage Witness Service in Melbourne

You need two witnesses aged 18 or over for a marriage in Australia.

If you do not have one or both witnesses, ask us about our witness service.

When people use this service

Couples often use our witness service when:

  • they are keeping the marriage very small
  • they are eloping and want it to be just the two of them
  • they are new to Melbourne
  • they do not want to involve friends or family
  • their original witness plans have fallen through

What the witnesses do

The witnesses are there to:

  • be present for the marriage
  • witness the legal words and signing
  • sign the marriage documents

They do not need to know you personally.

Important point

Witnesses are there for the legal requirement, not as wedding guests.

It works with any of our packages: the $780 paperwork-only marriage, the $1,800 elopement ceremony, or the $2,200 wedding ceremony.

How to arrange it

The easiest way is to:

  1. book your package (paperwork-only online, or check your date for an elopement or wedding)
  2. tell us you need witness help, and whether you need one or both witnesses
  3. we confirm the arrangements with your date and time
