Marriage Ceremonies FAQ
Everything you need to know about working with Annie Birch to create a bespoke, meaningful, and deeply personal ceremony across Melbourne and regional Victoria.
What is included in your marriage ceremony packages?
Every bespoke package includes complete legal lodgement management (including your Notice of Intended Marriage), a fully customised script tailored to your love story, unlimited communication and rehearsal coordination, professional portable PA sound equipment, and registration of your marriage with the Victorian BDM.
How do we secure our wedding date with you?
Once we’ve had an initial chat or consultation to ensure we’re the perfect fit, a signed agreement and retainer secure your date exclusively in our calendar. Dates during peak spring and autumn Victorian wedding seasons fill up fast, so early booking is always encouraged.
Do you help us write our own vows and personal story?
Absolutely. Writing personal vows can feel daunting, so we provide comprehensive, stress-free guides and templates. We work closely with you to weave your unique history, humour, and values into a cohesive narrative that feels entirely authentic to both of you.
Can we include family rituals, handfasting, or cultural traditions?
Yes! Whether you want to incorporate a traditional handfasting ribbon tying, cultural customs, a sand ceremony, or a moment to honour family members, we love designing personalized rituals that make your ceremony deeply memorable.
