Answer a few questions to get started

Tell us about you

Watch how easy it is to celebrate your special day with Coastal Marriage Registry.

Coastal Marriage Registry offers all the romance with half the cost of a regular Marriage Celebrant.

Anthony usually charges $1100 for wedding. CMR only charges $550!

Instead of travelling to a boring courthouse in Brisbane, get married at

Double Bay Beach, Kawana Island on the Sunshine Coast (for similar cost!)

We book a 30 minute spot. Services are completed in 20 minutes, including the special things you want to say to the love of your life.

As a registry-style wedding we keep the number of guests to not more than 10. Although friends and family can meet you immediately afterwards to continue the celebration. You'll need at least two adult witnesses to sign the paperwork.

Imagine how great the photo's will look at this idealic venue.

Frequently Asked Questions

We understand you have questions. Here's some of the more popular ones?

Why are you so inexpensive?

We keep the costs down by bringing couples to one venue, rather than driving all over the coast to marry people. Also, there's no love story being prepared by the celebrant, which saves considerable time.

Do we need to complete any paperwork before the wedding?

Yes. Legally you must complete a Notice of Intended Marriage and give it to your celebrant at least one month before your wedding day. We'll make an appointment to meet both of you on location when we contact you.

We'll ask you to bring your birth certificates or passports, plus your licenses. We'll also fulfill our legal obligations by getting you a brochure from the government and individually confirm if either of you are being coerced.

If you have exceptional circumstances, such as one party lives overseas, just let us know. There's generally a solution to every challenge.

Can we exchange our personal vows?

Absolutely! We encourage you to do so. Telling your partner what you love about them and why you're looking forward to sharing the rest of your lives together adds to the romance of the day.

Do you arrange the Marriage Certificate?

We provide a display certificate on the day. We then submit the relevant paperwork to Brisbane Birth, Deaths and Marriages the day after your wedding. They will contact you directly about 2 weeks after your wedding to notify you that the official certificate is available for purchase. The cost of the certificate is additional to the cost of your wedding and is paid directly to Brisbane BDM.

What if it rains on our Wedding Day?

Many cultures believe it's good luck to have rain on your wedding day. It certainly makes it more memorable! We have under cover options available. If it's dangerous weather we will make specific changes based on your safety.

Can the bride run fashionably late?

In short, no. We expect both parties to arrive 10 minutes before their booking to complete some paperwork. Each booking is for 30 minutes which gives everyone time to enjoy their day. Let's remove the stress by being on time.

What if I want a different day and location?

It's your wedding and should have what you want. Fill in your details above and we'll arrange the day and location that suits you. Obviously the cost will double.

Is there parking available?

Yes, there's also toilet facilities and beautiful options to continue the celebration at Green Zebra Restaurant or Vrina Cafe. Wheelchair access is also available.

Can we play our own music?

Sure. We have a small speaker (it's a public space so it can't be too loud). Save you music to your phone and bluetooth it to the speaker.

When and how do we pay?

50% payment is required on or before the first meeting to complete the Notice of Intended Marriage. This payment is not refundable so make sure you're sure.

The remaining 50% is required on or before your wedding day.

We cannot accept credit card payment due to the inexpensive price and the government won't let us pass on the fees.

Payment must be cash on each day or bank transfer at least 3 days beforehand.

Does this sound familiar?

  • In the excitement of planning your wedding you overspend on everything, only to realise that the amount of money you spend is not a reflection of how much you love someone.

  • You book the Marriage Registry in Brisbane, take the day off work, spend a similar amount of money and get stuck inside an impersonal venue.

  • Your plan your elopement overseas, then struggle to get your marriage recognised in Australia

Don't worry, we can help!
