No merge
There is no reason at all to merge this with a larger entry that lists various common Euro-American wedding participants. If anything such an entry should link to this as the main entry.PelleSmith (talk) 14:53, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
I agree. The Australian Civil Celebrant is genuinely unique and other Western Countries are still struggling to absorb the complex of concepts. (Citizen-Gladiator) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Citizen-Gladiator (talk • contribs) 19:53, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
..and New Zealand
This term, celebrant is also used in New Zealand. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Galaxyporpoise (talk • contribs) 06:39, 28 February 2010 (UTC) -- I intend to put in a section in on New Zealand as soon as I can find a reliable source.

The 1970s was the decade of great social change in Australia
The 1960s might have had the Beatles but the 1970s was the decade of great social change. This can be seen in the Australian civil marriage figures.
- In the 1950s the civil marriage rate rose from 10.35% in 1950 to 11.54% in 1960.
- In the 1960s the civil marriage rate went from 11.63% in 1961 to a low of 10.63% in 1968 and 10.91% in 1969.
In the 1970s, the civil marriage rate rose from 11.92% in 1970 to 36% in 1979. This rise is far more dramatic than in any succeeding decade.
- In the 1980s it rose from 36.3% in 1980 to 42.2% in 1989.
- In the 1990s it rose from 42.1% in 1990 to 51.3$ in 1999.
* From 2000-2010 it rose from 52.8% in 2000 to 66.9% in 2009.
- From 2010 it rose from 69.2% in 2010 to 79.7% in 2018.
So the rate of change was greatest in the 1970s, followed by the first decade of this century and then this decade, followed by the 1990s and then the 1980s. In contrast to this, the decade of the 1950s was one of a slow rise and most of the 1960s saw a slow fall in the civil marriage rate.
Therefore the evidence points to rapid social change in the 1970s rather than the 1960s. Hence the changed date in the text.
