The thing is that if I am to include all the information that I think is relevant in, my resume would be about a page and a half... Is this acceptable or do I have to add stuff or cut stuff out in order to it look "complete"?

You're worried about having 1 page and a half? I wouldn't, if I were you. But just for you to feel totally happy about how your resume looks, just enlage the font with 1 and also enlarge the margins of the sheet. Anyway, I think you should worry about the content more Very Happy

The length of a resume depends on so many factors: age, experience, work history and last, but definitely not least the job and company you apply in. If you want to work in a large corporation, believe me, they won't even look at a CV under 3-4 pages, out of which 3 are filled with accomplishments and personal projects.
