The Concept Of Legals Only Marriages
No, it is not a new concept. Getting married legally has been introduced and conducted in our society since, forever. The marriage act which is governed by the Parliament of Australia protects the rights of those seeking to get married legally. The legal marriage process doesn’t require a priest or any cultural ceremony. Instead, you need a marriage registrar aka a authorised marriage celebrant and two witnesses. Once you are done with the paperwork you are declared married. Yes, it is this easy and hassle free. A very important part of legal marriage is that it protects your rights and it has supported same sex marriage since the 2017 amendment. You can also apply to the Registry of Births Deaths and Marriages for an official marriage certificate as a proof of your marriage to enable your to change your name on your ID documents.
