Pat Mac Anally · The Irish Wedding Celebrant
Yes — Pat marries same-sex couples, and has since marriage equality became law in 2017. There is no separate process and no separate price: the same three meetings, the same written ceremony you approve, the same legal work.
Everything on the ceremonies page applies unchanged — your story, your vows, readings, music, a unity ritual if you want one. The only thing Pat asks in meeting one is the same thing he asks every couple: how you met, and what you want the day to feel like.
He'll also ask what you'd rather he left out — which for some couples includes the language, the assumptions, or the parts of a wedding script that were written for somebody else's marriage. You'll read every word weeks before the day, so nothing is said in front of your families that you haven't already approved.
“Dear Pat, Annie and I thank you for helping to make our day so special. It turned out to be amazing and we could not have asked for anything more. Not living on the Gold Coast was not such a big deal in the planning phase — with your insight, we did this easily by just using the phone and Skype. We were a little hesitant in the beginning, but as soon as we started talking to you we knew we had made the right choice. Everything was so relaxed, and this gave us the confidence to move ahead positively. Despite the last-minute changes, you took everything in your stride as if it was nothing to be concerned about. We are grateful for all you've done to give us a perfect day which will forever be remembered by us and our guests.
