Australian marriage law

So, did anyone else notice the absurdity of Frankie and Lewis getting married 3 weeks after meeting? Not (just) because it may be a dumb thing to do, but because in Australia there's this thing called a "Notice of Intention to Marry" - which has to be filled out and lodged with a celebrant at least 1 month and 1 day before the wedding. So there is no way Frankie and Lewis could have gotten married so fast.

Dumb.

There is actually a way to do it faster, you just have to pay extra to have it rubber stamped. The only reason I know is that I did it once years ago. I was surprised how easy it was.
