We Are a Same-Sex or LGBTQIA+ Couple. How Do We Get Married at a Registry in Victoria?

If you are a same-sex couple or LGBTQIA+ couple planning a registry-style wedding, elopement or legal marriage ceremony in Melbourne, our experienced team can guide you through the entire process from start to finish.

The first step is to lodge a Notice of Intended Marriage (NOIM) through Pride Registry Weddings, Melbourne Marriage Registry or Marriage Victoria with one of our experienced Commonwealth-registered marriage celebrants.

Under Australian law, your NOIM must be lodged at least one month before your wedding date and can be lodged up to 18 months in advance. Once your NOIM has been lodged, you can secure your ceremony date and begin planning your wedding.

Many couples choose to celebrate their marriage in the award-winning ceremony rooms of the Victorian Marriage Hub in South Yarra, while others choose an intimate elopement or location wedding elsewhere in Victoria.

How Do We Lodge Our NOIM?

Simply call or email our team to arrange an appointment. We will guide you through the paperwork, explain the legal requirements and answer any questions you may have.

If you already have a completed NOIM form, you can send it to us before your appointment to help speed up the process.

How Soon Can We Get Married?

Once your NOIM has been legally lodged, you may be married from one month later, subject to celebrant and ceremony availability.

Ready to Get Started?

Call (03) 9820 1119 to make an appointment or enquire about available ceremony dates. If the administration office is unattended, please call 0424 77 88 00.

Our friendly team would be delighted to help you take the next step towards your wedding day.
