Yes. I am almost confused as you. Basically we went through what is known as an advanced wedding ceremony on a Tuesday. And I had to remain in the country for 10 days after. I actually left 11 days later. Our marriage certificate was issued 10 days after the wedding ceremony, but my wife collected it from the Reverend about 3 weeks or so later.Originally Posted by brinormeg

So if im not being totally thick here!
You didnt have to wait the 10 days for the marriage licence to be posted before you actually got married?
All you had to do was be in the country after the advance wedding ceremony for 10 days, then you were free to leave and your could just go pick up the marriage certificate any time later?
And that whats the ADVANCE in the advance wedding ceremony?
Maybe others on here can shed some light on this. I remain confused. All I can say is that it worked well. No problems whatsoever.
The ADVANCE meant the wedding ceremony took place that day, on the Tuesday, in advance of the issueing of the Marriage Certificate. I was told that an approach like that is common in China or some place like that......
