Getting married overseas has become more popular over the past few years, offering a great alternative to marrying in the UK. The attraction of guaranteed sunshine beautiful unblemished beaches and fabulous luxury resorts is almost too good to miss, and we found that many couples come to the conclusion that this would be the ideal setting in which to exchange their vows. 5 Star Wedding Directory found the most popular destinations include:
Barbados, Florida, Mauritius, St Lucia, Antigua, Maldives, Venice, Paris, Las Vagas, Seychelles, Cyprus and the Dominican Republic.
Here are a few things to consider if you decide to marry abroad.
1) A minimum of 24 hours residence
2) Return air tickets
3) You will be required to produce documents such as a passport and if you have been married previously you will need proof of your divorce certificate.
4) If you are under 21 years if age you will need parental consent.
5) Most registrars will want to meet you at least 24hrs prior to the marriage so that they can talk you through their requirements and any payments.
Another pont to remember is that even though your wedding will be official and you will have a marriage certificate, you will need to register your marriage with your local registrar on you return back home.
There are a number of benefits to getting married abroad.

Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend!

It seems one rock on your finger just isn’t enough these days as celebrity manicurist, Leighton Denny, launches the ultimate in luxurious manicures using his new Diamond nail care products which include Diamond particles to give the hands a perfectly polished look.
The polishing and exfoliating properties of Diamonds such as those used in Leighton’s Skin Like Silk Hand and Nail scrub produce superior skin smoothing and refining whilst the diamond particles used in his Diamond VIP Buffer gently polishes the nail surface to a perfect glossy shine. Leighton was inspired to formulate the diamond products through his experience of creating beautiful bridal nails:
“All women want their nails to look perfect for their wedding day. The consensus for wedding day nails is pale shades and natural French polish but I have always felt this is not special enough in view of the occasion. I wanted to create nails that would gently glisten and beautifully compliment the engagement ring. With this in mind I decided to incorporate diamond particles within my new colour shades. The results are incredible – a beautiful subtle shimmer with the added benefit of long lasting wear.”
Leighton Denny
Brides looking for french manicures with a touch of glamour will be hooked once they’ve tried the three new Diamond Nail Colours including Diamond Ice, Diamond Ivory and Diamond Rose (£12), VIP Buffer (£6) and the re-formulated Skin Like Silk Hand & Nail Scrub (£10) all contain real diamond particles for beautiful, hardwearing luxury.
