# For _AI agents_

How an assistant can read this site without scraping it, and what it cannot do here.

Best Ceremonies publishes this site for AI assistants as well as people. Felicity Best's prices, places, paperwork and booking terms are at /llms.txt as a short index, /llms-full.txt as full text, /site.json as JSON and in a Markdown copy of every page, and seven read-only tools answer from them, in the browser or over MCP at /mcp. Nothing here books a date; Felicity confirms availability herself.

## What this site does

- Publishes a fixed price for every ceremony: a weekday price for Monday to Thursday and a weekend price for Friday to Sunday, in Australian dollars, no GST.
- Travel within 80 km or an hour and a half of Murwillumbah is included, whichever gets you there; past both, travel is $1 a kilometre for the round trip beyond the included kilometres.
- Holds ceremonies anywhere within about two hours of Murwillumbah, in New South Wales and Queensland.
- Takes enquiries by phone on 0400 110 959 and through the form at https://bestceremonies.com.au/contact/, and Felicity answers them herself.

## What it does not do

- Nothing on this site books or holds a date, and nothing on it can say whether a date is free. Felicity confirms availability herself. The booking terms: "Your date is booked once the booking fee is paid and the written agreement is signed. Until both are done it is only pencilled in, and someone else can take it."
- No tool submits the enquiry form. It sits behind a bot challenge so that a person reads a person's message; give the person https://bestceremonies.com.au/contact/ or the phone number, 0400 110 959.
- Prices are not negotiated or quoted on request. A total differs from the published price only by travel past the included distance and by witnesses supplied for a marriage. Council permits for beach and park ceremonies are not included; the couple books and pays the council directly.
- No rating or review score is published here. Reviews are on the Google Business Profile, https://maps.google.com/?cid=4866051114095709296.

## Machine-readable copies

Each is generated from the same content as the pages on every build, so a figure in one is the figure in all of them.

## How the URLs work

Every URL ends in a slash. Places live under /areas/ (/areas/scenic-rim/, not /scenic-rim/). A ceremony in a place is /{ceremony}/{place}/ and exists only for the pairs listed on https://bestceremonies.com.au/agents/. Any page has a Markdown copy at its path with .md in place of the closing slash.

## Tools in the browser

In a browser with WebMCP, every page registers these tools with the agent working in it. All of them read; none of them writes, and none sends the enquiry form. Each one answers from [site.json](https://bestceremonies.com.au/site.json) or from a page's Markdown copy, and names the page to cite.

### `bestceremonies_prices`

 Every published ceremony price for Best Ceremonies (Felicity Best, marriage and funeral celebrant, Murwillumbah NSW): weekday and weekend figures in AUD, with what each includes and whether GST applies. Quote these directly. 

### `bestceremonies_estimate`

 Itemised total for one ceremony: the tier's fee for the day, travel beyond the included kilometres, witnesses supplied, booking fee and balance. Arithmetic is the same as the estimator on the prices page. Takes `service`, `tier` (optional), `day` (optional), `place` (optional), `km` (optional), `witnesses` (optional). 

For example `{"service":"weddings","day":"weekend","place":"Byron Bay","witnesses":2}`

### `bestceremonies_service`

 What one ceremony type includes, costs, needs (documents) and how far ahead to book, with the page's own questions and answers. Takes `service`. 

For example `{"service":"elopements"}`

### `bestceremonies_areas`

 Where Best Ceremonies (Felicity Best, marriage and funeral celebrant, Murwillumbah NSW) holds ceremonies: each place with its state, drive time and distance from Murwillumbah, venues, and which ceremony pages exist for it, then the places reached by arrangement (e.g. Brisbane) with the travel charge for the drive. Takes `place` (optional). 

For example `{"place":"Gold Coast"}`

### `bestceremonies_faq`

 Search every question and answer on the site (paperwork, the NOIM, permits, witnesses, timing, funerals, prices). Takes `query`. 

For example `{"query":"witness"}`

### `bestceremonies_contact`

 How to get in touch, what is published about the business, what is not yet, and what this site cannot do (it books nothing and no tool sends the enquiry form). 

### `bestceremonies_page`

 Read one page of this site in full, as Markdown: its answer, prices, steps, questions and every other word a person sees. Give the page's path, e.g. /weddings/, /areas/byron-bay/ or /noim/. The other tools name the pages worth reading. Takes `path`. 

For example `{"path":"/legals-only/"}`

The same answers, without a browser: [llms.txt](https://bestceremonies.com.au/llms.txt) for the index and [site.json](https://bestceremonies.com.au/site.json) for the data the tools read.

## Connect as an MCP server

The same tools, for an assistant that is not in a browser. Paste this address wherever the assistant asks for a custom connector or a remote MCP server. There is no key and no sign-in, because everything it answers is already public on this site.

```
https://bestceremonies.com.au/mcp
```

### Claude

Open Settings, then Connectors, choose Add custom connector, paste the address and leave authentication off. The tools then appear in any chat.

### Other assistants

Any client that takes a remote MCP server over Streamable HTTP takes the same address. If it asks for a transport, choose HTTP.

### For agents with only an HTTP client

The server is stateless and answers POST only. It speaks the 2026-07-28 revision, where a call needs no handshake, and still answers a 2025 client's `initialize`. One call, which returns the same total the estimator on the prices page gives:

```
curl -s https://bestceremonies.com.au/mcp \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -H 'mcp-protocol-version: 2026-07-28' \
  -H 'mcp-method: tools/call' \
  -H 'mcp-name: bestceremonies_estimate' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"bestceremonies_estimate","arguments":{"service":"weddings","day":"weekend","place":"Byron Bay","witnesses":2},"_meta":{"io.modelcontextprotocol/protocolVersion":"2026-07-28","io.modelcontextprotocol/clientCapabilities":{}}}}'
```

The [server card](https://bestceremonies.com.au/mcp/server-card) describes it before you connect: its registry name, `au.com.bestceremonies/mcp`, its version and the protocol revisions it speaks. A problem the agent can act on, such as a place the site does not know, comes back as an answer saying so, never as a protocol error.
