When we applied for fiance visa we mentioned in the covering letter what our plans were - i.e. to get married in January 2009 - but did not submit any documentation as there simply wasnt any! AS it happened the planned wedding date was brought forward to November 2008 because the visa was dated from point of issue rather than the intended date of travel date included in the application. We felt it would be too much hassle to try to get the visa changed.

Good luck anyway

Just a thought: is it the solicitor who has raised this or has it come from the ECO? Most people here have applied directly themselves, with success, and without requiring the use of a solicitor. IMO this forum contains everything you need to know.
