I have often said that when a couple gets married that event needs to be a wedding to remember because it becomes a part of a lifetime memory. It doesn’t have to be a big wedding if the couple doesn’t want it to be and neither does it have to be expensive. Nevertheless there are circumstances where it is so moving to make it as traditional as possible. Here I give and example of how a wedding can be made just that.
Joe contacted me from overseas and
asked me to conduct his wedding
so after the formal arrangements
they also wanted to hire a gown and suit
and to have a photographer present
as well as a bouquet of flowers
for the bride
they were going to be here for a few days
then off to a fun honeymoon and back home
where they would have a reception
they came from a country where legal weddings
are not possible for various reasons
and in this way they will have the wedding and
the celebration making it a
wedding to remember their whole life

@ Lewis in response to your original question, several couples have come to me to get married from countries where unless both are from the same religion it is very difficult to get approval to marry even in a civil ceremony. So they go to a country that approval is easier and then take the documents back home to have them acknowledged.
Lewis this is the information I received and as its validity was not the issue of this post I did not question it at the time. When I find out more in November I will write a post on it, so look out for it.
What on earth does “a country where legal weddings
are not possible” mean?
