its up to you, pro's and cons on each of the visa's.

but not many on here have had a visa refused, that the important part.

i got married in the phils, becuase there are not many in my family, and some don't want to even fly, my wife's family is a lot bigger, so it made sense, a lot cheaper in the phils( cost me less than £3000). a wedding in the uk much more expensive, no where near as good tell me where in the uk can compete with palawan or many parts of the phils for being close to paradise ??, I wouldn't even think of getting married in the uk, and trying to apply for VV for some of the wifes family and the cost of the air tickets ...

not much difference btw the evidence you need for a spouse visa or a fiance visa.
