Ok filled in the questionaire.Originally posted by RichardCranium View PostWell? Where are you going?
Cyprus - Coral Bay - where we got married a few years ago. We didn't get to do much as we had wedding things to arrange when we were there.
What are you doing?
Relaxing on the beach and ridding the island of beer by turing it into harmless wee.
Who with?
Wife and kids, her mum and the loony foster kid she has and my wifes best mate. I get on well with my mother in law which is handy as she comes away with us a lot!!
Why?
Because I want one!
How long for?
2 Weeks - away from Geneva for 2.5 weeks though

I know you asked Tony but in true CUK fashion I'm gonna give you my opinion anywayOriginally posted by cailin maith View Post
We had ours in Sri Lanka last year and it was incredibly stress free TBH.
Wedding co-ordinator met us on day one to make some final choices (flowers, location etc) and to go over the arrangements.
Met the registrar on day 2 to fill out the paperwork
Booked Mrs PL's nail and hair appointments on Day 3
Married on Day 4
I would definitely recommend it for anyone who's not into a church wedding.Comment

Ours was pain free. We had a wedding coordinator also. Obviously there are a lot of emails flying about in the run up to it, but they do this as their job and know exactly what they are doing. We made sure we got an English speaking one as we didn't want anything to get lost in translation. When we got to the island we had a few meetings, went to the hotel where the reception was to be held and met the manager to discuss what we wanted etc. It was all dead simple and a lot cheaper than in the UK. Because it was overseas it cut down on the number of guests considerably. We had 30 or 35 at ours. Everybody just had their holiday in Cyprus and made sure they were there at the right time. We spent about 5.5k all in - the flights and private villa for 2 weeks took up most of that. The actual wedding was peanuts.
If I had to do it over, I'd go away again. It was much better than being ripped off at every turn in the UKRule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
