Getting married in the Northern Territory

From Darwin’s sunsets to the Red Centre, the Northern Territory is unlike anywhere else in Australia.

The legal bit

Marriage law is the same across Australia. Lodge a Notice of Intended Marriage with your celebrant at least one month and no more than 18 months before the day, then marry with an authorized celebrant and two witnesses over 18. You don’t need to be a citizen or resident to marry here.

Planning tips

The dry season, roughly May to October, is the most comfortable time for outdoor celebrations. Planning photos in a national park like Uluru-Kata Tjuta? Commercial photography usually needs a permit, so check with Parks Australia early.

Questions couples ask

Can same-sex couples legally marry in the Northern Territory?

Yes. Marriage equality has been law across Australia since December 2017.

How far ahead do we need to lodge our Notice of Intended Marriage?

At least one month and no more than 18 months before your wedding.

How many witnesses do we need?

Two, and both must be over 18.

Legal details last checked October 2026 against the Attorney-General’s Department. Always confirm with your celebrant.
