The only cost I can see you've lost is the visiting marriage visa.
The papers you're gathered for your fiancee visa would be used for the spouse visa. The questions are basically the same with the addition of the marriage info.
I've married a Filipina both in the UK and in The Philippines. ....I can tell you, the Philippine marriage ceremony and the day was on the whole lightyears better than our British affair. ..why. ..bc her whole family were able to attend. It is after all the bride's day. You are far from being selfish
Expense wise, all I can see is the cost of a single return flight.
Just a thought okay. ..we only get married once
