Registry-style ceremonies by civil celebrants, not a government registry office. No fuss, no frills, no wedding. Just paperwork.

Marriage Equality

Marriage equality has applied in Australia since December 2017. The same legal rules apply to all couples.

Australian law has recognised marriage as the union of 2 people to the exclusion of all others, voluntarily entered into for life, since 9 December 2017.

What that means here

At Darwin Marriage Office:

  • all couples are welcome
  • the same legal requirements apply to everyone
  • the same low-fuss paperwork-only service is available to everyone
