Your Commitment Ceremony, Brisbane, Logan and Beyond
Brisbane Gay and Lesbian Commitment Ceremonies, That Celebrate Your Relationship
Why Have a Civil Union or Commitment Ceremony?
A Commitment Ceremony, Brisbane is a public declaration of love and commitment between two people. I believe it is the right of every loving couple to marry (if they choose), but until same sex marriage (gay marriage) is legislated, Commitment Ceremonies are a great option for Brisbane gay and lesbian couples (and the wider GLBTI community) to formally and publicly declare their life long commitment.
What happens at a Brisbane Commitment Ceremony?
Anything you request. I can help you with a custom written ceremony or I can simply present the ideas you already have, either way we'll make it a truly special and memorable occasion. In a typical Commitment Ceremony, there will be a Commitment Ceremony reading or two (email me for sample Commitment Ceremony Readings), an undertaking to work towards a life long commitment and an exchange of rings. I will get to know you both and create a unique, custom written ceremony that captures the essence of your relationship. I do not believe that one size fits all when it is something as personal as formalisation your love.
How is it different to a Same Sex Marriage (Gay Marriage)?
 It is not currently permitted for celebrants to declare gay and lesbian couples husbands and wives and it is currently illegal to conduct a same sex marriage in Queensland.
I personally believe that gay and lesbian relationships face different challenges and undergo different experiences, and so it is only fitting that a same sex relationship (and Commitment Ceremony) has its own terminology and status. We can discuss your preferences and come up with your unique ceremony.
Does it have to be a formal occasion?
You can plan your Brisbane Commitment Ceremony to be as formal or informal as you like – from a five star Brisbane City reception room to a budget backyard BBQ, I will help you create an atmosphere that makes your guests feel at home. Usually, Commitment Ceremonies take place on a Friday or Saturday afternoon and are followed by a party however dawn or dusk ceremonies can also be arranged.
