Hi....I'm new to this Forum.. Uk citizen, who is waiting for visa to be granted to my Filipina fiancee - who is in Philippines.

Obviously anxious that we are not given a hard time by the Embassy in Manila. However, with faith that the finacee visa will come through soon, we are already getting on with the arrangements for our wedding to take place as soon as possible after fiancee arrives.

One question I would very much like some help with is about the honeymoon..In particular, will my bride, when we are married, be allowed to go on Honeymoon outside the UK?

I've read something about Scwengen visas, but dont see how that could work if newly-marrieds want to go for honeymoon straight or very soon after the wedding.

Does anyone have any answer to what we can do to achieve this? We are thinking of going to Spain, but maybe other destinations - including outside Europe - will be our preference.

Many thanks for any information or pointers!
