WELCOME TO AAMCA

Welcome to the home of the Association of Authorised Marriage Celebrants Australia Incorporated. This website is a directory of Authorised Marriage Celebrants around Australia who are members of the Association.

Importantly, this site is run by Marriage Celebrants for Marriage Celebrants and if you require any advice on the requirements of marriage and all legal aspects we are able to assist you immediately without having to locate a specialist in this field.

All Marriage Celebrants are appointed by the Australian Commonwealth Government's Attorney-General's Department and are committed to professionalism and sensitivity in the performance of Marriage Ceremonies and abide by a strict Code of Practice.

From the following pages you will learn about the role of a Marriage Celebrant and the importance of their appointment. Additionally you can establish the identity of an authorised Marriage Celebrant in your area. It is most important to note that Marriage Celebrants are not restricted to one area and often travel to other surrounding areas. Therefore we strongly recommend that you browse the pages of listed celebrants and choose one or two to contact. Once you have done this, arrange to meet with them to see how they operate and, most importantly, if you are comfortable with them. A Marriage Celebrant´s role in a wedding is probably the most important role and it is essential that you choose one who you have confidence in.
