What is a micro wedding?

You pick from one of our stunning venues and we take care of the legal responsibilities and provide a celebrant and beautifully styled ceremony. You can also add a range of extras such as flowers, photography, and post-ceremony food and beverage packages to celebrate with your friends and family.

Micro wedding venues are only available for selected dates with limited time slots. Ceremonies run for 20 minutes followed by your chosen post-ceremony celebration.

      Dude it's a trap. $1299 to start the contract and $120,000 to break it + you get life time of payment plan.

        We already have a child and two mortgages. All of this chat in here about marriage being some kind of incel cult is pretty concerning.

        You'll get cleaned out just the same if you're in a defacto relationship as if you were in a registered marriage. Only difference is that you need to be separated for 12 months and go through Tony Abbott's marriage counselling before you can split up as a married couple. The financial (and custody) consequences are the same.

        It doesn’t take $1299 to start the contract. If you’re in the position to do this, you probably have already started the contract despite the lack of this piece of paper.

      You're doing well if you've only been to weddings with <35 people! In my experience most have been what I'd consider modest at 80-100!

    • Gravy on 31/08/2023 - 11:39

      Well, it comes down to whether you invite just family and wedding party friends (best man/maid of honour etc), or a wider range of friends as well.

      If you decide to invite friends outside of wedding party is starts to get very tricky as you don't want to offend. Hence we went with first option and it was still around 45-50 people.

          What about assets brought into a marriage? If it’s not in the other party’s name how can any ruling force anyone to “transfer” these assets? It’s a civil not criminal matter.

            @abc: Family court can make orders for defacto relationships as well. It can transfer/sell whatever it sees fit. Has nothing to do with criminal? Property is transferred all the time in civil cases.

              @killingtime: My point is if the assets are in single name only? Sure a court could make a ruling but actioning it is another thing entirely.

              The authorities are not going to point a gun at you forcing you to sign over or sell assets.

                        End of the day no one cares what you or I think. This is in text books and the constitution.
