The Destination Wedding Dilemma.
Wedding at an exotic foreign location is always a dream for so many couples but it is often ditched because of the hassles that come as a bonus with the joy of getting married in a foreign country. But if you have made up your mind that you will have your wedding abroad then here is a complete guide for you.
1. Finding a location
If you are certain that you are organizing your wedding abroad, most chances are that you already have a destination planned in mind. There are so many places you can choose from but before you do we will suggest you to do some research to know the rules you must follow for tying the knot in a foreign country.
2. Booking a venue
Book a venue ahead of your time. Some couples book the venue a year in advance to avoid complications later on. If it’s possible visit the venue twice before your big day, one for selecting the place and another for finalizing the decorations, menu, etc. so that nothing goes wrong.
3. Hire a planner
Hiring a planner will save your time and efforts. You being completely unknown to the place where you are about to your wedding, you might not know many things about it. So a local marriage planner would know what must be done to make your wedding ceremony successful.
4. Translate essential documents
This is a critical and the most vital step you need to follow for getting married abroad. You need to translate your legal documents by a professional translator, in the official language of the place where you have planned your wedding and this can be a struggle sometimes. The documents that you need to get translated are the certificates of the parties, deed poll, proof of any change name, decree absolute, if married, marriage and death certificate of deceased spouse, if widowed and adoption certificate if adopted. Also, you need to make sure that it is a certified translation of the original documents, done by a professional translator. It would be best for you if you hire a certified translation service because they have experience, they know which documents you’ll need and they will efficiently translate it so that you don’t have to see your dreams shattering in front of your eyes.
CONCLUSION
Once everything about the wedding is planned and all your legal documents are translated properly then there’s nothing to worry about. You can just lie down on your couch and daydream about what your life is going to be like after the wedding. You might doze off in the middle and dream about how everyone is appreciating you after your big day went exactly as planned.
