5.  Complete paperwork 24/7 - Online

Everyone getting married has to complete a Notice of Intended Marriage form (NoIM) at least one calendar month prior to their ceremony date, as required by law in New South Wales.

With Simple Ceremonies this is done online to produce a pdf. This then need to be signed and witnessed by an Authorised Person.

At the Marriage Registry Office, you are required to call and make an appointment before you have an interview and then complete your NoIM. They also require both of you to be present. Whereas at Simple Ceremonies, only one of you has to sign the NoIM in order to submit it, which is compliant with the Marriage Act.
