The Quick Vow

Just the two of you, the legals, and a handful of words that actually mean something. In and out in ten minutes, all the feeling, none of the fuss.

Elopement-sized

The Classic Encore

A proper ceremony with your people watching - readings, rings, the works - minus anything that feels like a rerun of a wedding you’ve already had.

Open Casting: Pick Anyone as Celebrant

Want to cast someone else in the lead role as Celebrant - an uncle, an old friend, whoever’s earned top billing? Pick literally anyone to be your celebrant; I’ll handle everything happening backstage (i.e. the legals).

A little about me

10+ Years marrying people

300+ Five-star reviews

2 Other super successful wedding businesses

I’ve been marrying Melbourne couples for more than 10 years, and somewhere along the way picked up over 300 five-star reviews from couples who trusted me with one of the biggest days of their lives.

Before this business existed, I built two other celebrant businesses from scratch: A Stand-up Celebrant, known for ceremonies with a genuine sense of humour, and My Celebrant Buddy, where you can choose anyone to be your celebrant.

The Second Chance Celebrant is a bit of both - the same steady hand, just aimed squarely at couples who’ve done this before and know exactly what they want this time around.

Frequently asked

Second time around, second thoughts

The questions I get asked the most - answered honestly, not diplomatically.

Do I need to get my divorce certificate?

If this is your second marriage, yup - you’ll need it. If it’s your third, fourth (or fifth, or sixth), you’ll only need proof from your most recent marriage. Not sure how to track it down? Here’s how to get your divorce certificate, or just get in touch and I’ll point you in the right direction.

Should I invite my ex to the wedding?

God, no. (Unless you two are one of those rare, effortlessly civil exes - in which case, that’s entirely your call.)

Is this only for people who were legally married before?

Not at all. This service also covers de facto relationships and long-term separations - you don’t need a signed divorce certificate to qualify, just a past relationship you’re ready to leave behind. And it doesn’t have to apply to both of you either - even if it’s just one partner who’s done this before, you’re still exactly who this is for. Same fun, same relaxed approach, no judgement either way.

What’s the difference between a first wedding and a second wedding?

Second weddings - as a general rule - are a lot more chilled, a lot more relaxed, and (dare I say it) a lot more fun.

Can I use the same suppliers from my first wedding?

Definitely. When I married Sinead and her new husband, they booked the same musician who’d played at her first wedding - he gave her half price the second time round, too.

What if my future husband or wife looks like my old one?

That’s okay - we all have a type. Plus, it’s what’s on the inside that counts. Unless he’s got an awesome body, in which case, fair enough.

How much does a second wedding cost with you?

It depends which package you go with. The Quick Vow (legals only) starts from $590. The Classic Encore (the full ceremony) and Open Casting (where you pick anyone to stand up front while I handle the legals) are both priced after a quick chat about what you're after - get in touch and I'll talk you through it.

I’ve got kids - how should I involve them in the ceremony?

However you like. Some kids do a reading, some stand up the front with you, some just want front row seats and a job title like “Chief Ring Holder.” Blended families are exactly what this service is built around, so we’ll figure out something that actually fits yours, rather than a generic “kids walk down first” moment.

What else should I know before getting married again?

Mostly it comes down to the legal side - what paperwork you need, whether your ex needs to be involved (they don’t), and how a second ceremony is actually different from the first. I’ve put together a full breakdown of what you’ll need to get married again - worth a read before we chat.

“So, you’ve decided to come back for more, huh?”
