A new change by the DIA means you can now apply for your marriage licence online, from the comfort of your own home. Laptop, tablet, smartphone – just go to http://marriages.services.govt.nz and follow the prompts.

DIA’s online service includes headings in Te Reo Māori and English, help text, connection to the Celebrants Online portal for easy Celebrant selection, and a Google address lookup – all designed to make things as easy as possible.

With the weather on the improve, wedding season is fast approaching. So, once you’ve been online and applied for your marriage licence, give me a call (or email) and we can get the ball rolling and start planning your ceremony.
