Talk to the local office where you intend to get married, and ask them if they could do things a bit sooner. If your nice to them, and bring em a box of chocolates, they will oblige, BUT I'm not saying this is the norm. Strictly, yes, it is 21 days, but its the Philippines, you know.....Don't forget that pre-marraige seminar as well, it will be 20 minutes of extreme boredom/torture/waste of time* (delete as appropriate)![]()
