I am the registered marriage celebrant authorised to solemnise this marriage according to the law.

<Party 2> & <Party 1>; please take each other hands as I say, before you are joined in marriage in my presence, and in the presence of these witnesses, I am to remind you of the solemn and binding nature of the relationship into which you are now about to enter. Marriage, according to law in Australia, is the union two people to the exclusion of all others, voluntarily entered into for life.
