About me

I would like to personally thank you for taking the time to visit my site. My name is Stephen Henderson and I am the GC Wedding Celebrant. I have lived on the sunny Gold Coast, Australia all of my life and it is my passion to perform marriage ceremonies. I have worked as a software developer, tour guide, computer salesman, video games tester and as a high school teacher, but there is something special about being involved in a wedding.

Instead of going through the courts I am here to make your lives easier, I am the elopement specialist! I spent 1 month working out the easiest way for someone to get married. This why I am the elopement specialist. This includes my simple 3 step wedding process that takes the stress out of getting ready to be married and gives you back your time. Being a computer nerd I have made my own custom software that make the journey straight forward.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

1. Find a date

Look through my Online Google Calendar to find a date for your wedding that I'm available and suits you.

2. Fill in the Form

Use the online Google form to fill in all the details for your legal documents. Imagine having to still handwrite it all.

3. Meeting

I will call to organise a face to face or online meeting. This is where we finalise the details of your wedding.

1. FIND A DATE

Look through my online Google calendar for a date and time that suits (Friday nights after 6pm, Saturday 8am - 9pm or Sunday 8am - 9pm).

Please be mindful that all the legal documents (NOIM, etc) need to be submited one month before your wedding.

2. Fill in the form

Once you have found a date I have created a Google form that will automatically fill in all of your legal documents. The form takes about 20 - 30 minutes to complete for each partner. The more detail you put in the end the better I can make your wedding!

Either fill in the form below or use this link https://forms.gle/Gn5YCjfRHUjS3dKy7

3. Meeting

Once the form is filled in I will ring within 48 hours to schedule either a face to face meeting or an online zoom meeting. Please make sure you both bring both forms of identification for both of you (Drivers Licence, Passport).
