Both Caroline & James highly recommend getting the help of a wedding planner to deal with the legal side of things, particularly in countries where the legal requirements are intricate. A wedding planner will know exactly what is needed and ensure that all the documentation is submitted within the relevant time frames.
As Caroline commented, “all that needs to happen is for one piece of paperwork to be incomplete and the wedding can’t take place, so it’s an essential aspect to get right.”
