I think what you are referring to is that as a condition of applying for a Fiancee visa at the British Embassy in Manila, the wedding must be pre-booked (in the UK) and the information about the date and place must be supplied when making an application.

There really is no need to do both a wedding here in UK and Philippines - Elsa and I married in a civil office ceremony in Palo, and it was good enough for the visa application. I'm sure others will tell you, do the wedding in Philippines, it will be a lot less hassle when it comes to applying for the settlement visa - you wont need a fiancee visa and the many strings and conditions, etc.
Why does the site make no mention of this? This is a strict rule?

How can you pre book something when you dont even know if they'll clear a fiance visa in the first place? Or, it may not be given in time for this pre booked date? :blink:
