# The Marriage Office

> Parent directory for local Marriage Office websites across Australia, with low-cost, registry-style marriage guidance from private celebrants.

The Marriage Office is published at https://australianmarriageoffices.com.au.
This site is the parent website for a network of local Marriage Office websites across Australia.
Its main public job is to help people find the correct local office site, understand the simple registry-style service, and use the map and directory to navigate the network.
It is not a government registry office, and the local office sites handle the actual local booking journey.
