Marriage celebrant in Newcastle
The beaches, the baths & the East End
Newcastle gives you an ocean, a harbour and a working port in the same photograph. Sharon has married couples on the sand at Bar Beach at sunrise, on the lawn at Fort Scratchley with the wind doing its best, and in a warehouse in the East End with the roller door up.
Whatever shape your day takes in Newcastle — a full wedding, an elopement for two, or a vow renewal with three generations watching — the ceremony is written from a blank page and every piece of legal paperwork is handled for you.
Council permits are required for most Newcastle beach and park ceremonies — Sharon will walk you through it.

A ceremony is the only part of the day that actually marries you — everything else is the party afterwards. It deserves more than fifteen rushed minutes of someone else’s words.

Paperwork, decoded
Is your date still legal?
Australian law needs your Notice of Intended Marriage at least one calendar month before you marry — and no more than eighteen. Put your date in and find out exactly where you sit.
A guide only, not legal advice. In limited circumstances a prescribed authority can shorten the one-month notice period — if you are inside it, ask Sharon rather than assume.
Kind words
What couples say afterwards
Half the room was crying by the second paragraph and the other half was laughing. She somehow got both our families in there without it ever feeling like a list.
We are not ceremony people. We told her that at the first meeting. She wrote us something ten minutes long that we still quote at each other.
The paperwork side of it never once became our problem. She just quietly dealt with all of it and told us where to sign.
Thirty years married and she still found something new to say about us. Our kids had not heard half of those stories.

Getting married in Newcastle?
No obligation, no hard sell, no package deck. Just a conversation about your day and whether Sharon is the right person to stand in front of you.
