Many people dream of having a perfect wedding abroad and it’s not uncommon for the necessary paperwork to be overlooked or left until the last minute amongst all the other preparations for the ‘big day’.

Getting Married Abroad

Increasingly, people travel abroad to marry in their unique location of choice; many people have found that there is an increased amount of legal paperwork that needs to be completed which can be confusing to many individuals. The complexities will largely depend on the requirements of the relevant authority in your chosen location but may include a requirement for Medical Certificates, Certificates of Law or Celibacy Certificates. Generally, a marriage that has taken place outside the UK will be recognised as valid upon presentation of the correct legal documentation that comply with the regulations of the country where it took place.

Graham Edwards at Edwardian Knowledge comments: “It often can be a challenge when marrying abroad especially if couples are of different or dual nationalities and it goes without saying that you need a good grasp of the law and foreign legislation to satisfy the regulations dictated by foreign countries and these can be at times tricky with added complications. We at Edwardian Knowledge are recognised for our expertise, can complete documents and help you to source them”.
