Why You Should Get Married in Hong Kong?
Wedding days are the most memorable of many interesting happenings in your life. As a bride and a groom, you completely want to have a stress-free celebration with your beloved family and friends and we, as wedding planners can make that happen in Hong Kong!
In all the places in the world, you would have that question in mind, “Why Hong Kong?”. Well, let me tell you - the city is not only bedecked with a gorgeous skyline, but it offers a big and bright atmosphere with tons of activities. The city may be just the perfect destination for your beautiful wedding.
But it doesn’t end there, Hong Kong also offers some of the finest restaurants and venues such as the famous The Peak which is home to stunning views and high-end options for venues replete with beautiful vantage points and the fun Peak Tram. You will also find scenic alfresco settings for your nuptials by the waterside with beach banquets and beautiful shores for your choosing. There is definitely no dearth of high end hotels and catering services as well as different accommodations options for different budgets.
When binational couples wish to get married, they often face a huge amount of bureaucracy. Getting married abroad can then be a very suitable and practical solution, especially in Hong Kong.
I would like to show you why marriage in Hong Kong is so unique, with the following example:
When a UK citizen wishes to marry his Philippine girlfriend/fiancée, there are usually just two options: to marry in the UK or to get married in the Philippines. Obtaining a visa for travel to the UK however, is a very lengthy and complicated process, involving many bureaucratic obstacles and in most cases, it takes months to get approved, and more often than not – years. This is due to immigration rules and regulations, requiring an endless amount of supporting documents, with no certain outcome – even more so if you dare to mention the intention of marrying!
The other way, trying to get married in the Philippines, is a lengthy and complicated process. On top of that, the marriage is not recognised in the UK. So for Visa purposes, it’s unfortunately completely useless.
What hurts the most though, is all the time wasted – the time not spent with your loved one.
It doesn’t even matter whether your partner is from the Philippines, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos or Thailand, sadly it’s the same for each of these nationalities.
Marrying abroad as the solution – The quick dream wedding in Hong Kong!
Whilst marrying abroad in any of these countries is very complicated and more importantly not internationally recognised, Hong Kong is different.
Getting married in Hong Kong is much more straightforward and in most cases does not require a certificate examinations/proofing. Additionally, the impediment to marriage certificate is also not required, which saves a tremendous amount of time.
