Some couples want to avoid the fuss and expense of a traditional wedding, and decide instead to surprise their guests and hold the wedding ceremony during their engagement party. After welcoming guests to their engagement party, today's couple slipped away to change into bridal attire. Their MC announced the wedding to the gasps and cheers of their guests. The groom's sister and the bride's uncle were thrilled to be asked to witness the ceremony. To comply with Australian Law, the couple had to complete the Notice of Intended Marriage at least a month before the ceremony, however, they didn't have to tell anybody about their plans to be married as soon as possible.
The important thing to remember about a surprise wedding is that while it can be a surprise for the guests, it can't be a surprise for the bride or groom.
