I'm not sure I understand. You can get married in Denmark (to pick one example) for a couple hundred euro. Whether and when you have a big wedding party -- and how much you spend on it -- is an entirely separate question.Karl1988 wrote:We don't really have the finances at the moment and don't want to rush our wedding day either!
I guess what I mean is we'd always wanted to plan it and have the wedding and celebration with family and friends etc at the same time. If there's no other option then we'd have to get married and celebrate the way we'd want to at a later date, I was just wondering if there was any other way of proving that we're in a genuine relationship.BBCWatcher wrote:I'm not sure I understand.

Singapore wants some official evidence of either civil legal marriage or, in certain cases, official recognition of a partnership. Singapore does not care at all how big and expensive your wedding party was, or even whether you had one at all. I don't think the United Kingdom offers official recognition of a partnership other than a civil marriage. Other countries do.
My company has recommended proceeding with the Employment Pass and then speak further with the MOM with regards to the Long Term Visit Pass. If it is required then we'll go ahead and get married. Is there any other documentation required to support this or will the marriage certificate suffice?Strong Eagle wrote:No - Because, as you said, the UK does not recognize common law marriage, hence, the high commission in Singapore will not issue the documentation you would like to have, and Singapore won't accept anything else.
