Marrying the love of your life is momentous, and what better way to make it unforgettable than by saying "I do" in an overseas locale? From coastal paradises to dreamy countrysides, there's no shortage of beautiful backdrops. But orchestrating a wedding beyond the UK’s borders involves intricate planning, especially when it involves international transactions.
With Equals Money's expertise in international payments, we're here to guide you through every step.
Your destination should reflect you and your partner's shared tastes and interests. While a sun-kissed beach might seem tempting, consider factors like accessibility for guests, local amenities, and any potential travel restrictions.
Every country has its own legal prerequisites for marriage. Alongside these legalities, familiarise yourself with local customs or traditions which can add a unique touch to your ceremony.
