Hi, my husband was here for a month, he wanted longer but we both knew he needed to go home to find work.
We planned our marriage, he got all his papers (CNI) which took 21 days, he needed new pass port, then a visa because he was here more than 21 days and the day he arrived in Cebu was so great.
A little tip for you because my husband said we should do this, if your husband has to go home and you stay there waiting for your visa, dont say 'Good Bye' at the airport, just kiss, and walk away. Goodbye seems so final so we both agreed never to say it, even on the phone. Hope your wedding goes well and its so nice to chat to others on here
