What should I do if my solemniser has not shown up and is not contactable?
If your solemniser has an emergency to attend to and is unable to officiate your solemnisation, he or she should inform you beforehand and arrange for his or her buddy solemniser to officiate the solemnisation instead. Please remember to record the buddy solemniser’s details including his or her name, contact number and arrival time.
In the rare event that you are unable to reach your solemniser on the day of solemnisation, you may still proceed with the other segments of your wedding program (e.g. reception, entertainment, cake-cutting, toasting etc). Please contact the Registry of Marriages (ROM) at 6338 7808 on the next working day and we will arrange to solemnise your marriage at the ROM office as soon as possible.
