These days, thanks to professionals like Colin Nolan, the options are far more versatile and helpful for those wanting a unique experience, and let’s face it, that is most of us. A professional celebrant like Colin knows that all you need for a marriage to be recognised by law is the Declaratory words and the Contracting words, meaning the rest is entirely up to you.
