Marriage Celebrant Essentials
starting 6 June 2023 - sold out but enrol in July and request to be on waitlist for earlier course!This very popular, on-line, short celebrant training course provides all the essentials for starting out on the right foot as a marriage celebrant. It ensures a thorough knowledge of the legalities imposed by the Marriage Act and recent changes affecting celebrants. You will be well set up for applying or renewing your appointment with BDM, and dealing with the tricky legal questions that invariably arise in this public role. You will learn about designing ceremonies at the simpler end of the spectrum.
For those wanting to maximise their exposure to all things ceremonial, this course can be taken along with the Ceremony and Celebration course (which is over two June weekends). Although it will be a intensive deep-dive, if you have time availability, this would really get you off to a racing start with your celebrancy.
