Suggest join Ancestry on a trial so you can access all these records in full - just make sure you cancel before they take a year's worth of membership fees !!
The Harber family have a Family tree on Ancestry (not much info on it) - Bruce Malcolm married Joan Veronica Northeast in 1947 so you should now be able to get copies of that certificate. They had a son in 1948 - too early to get certificate.
Joan died 2014, Bruce died 2017, son 2019 (had married and had a child)
Bruce buried Caulfield South, Glen Eira City, Victoria
