He doesn't need to stay 21 days. If he has a CNI (Certificate of No Impediment) from his local registry office in the UK, he exchanges it at the British Embassy in Manila or the the British Consulate in Cebu, for the Philippine version, then you apply for a marriage licence and as soon as you get one you can get married. Then he can go home whenever he wants.
I think your getting confused with the process of applying for the CNI in the Philippines instead of coming to the Philippines having already obtained a CNI from his local registry office in the UK which he brings with him to the Philippines. I think if you apply for the CNI in the Philippines it takes 21 days to come through and then you still have to wait 10 days for a marriage licence after that.
