Good luck to you

Sorry, we missed that post.

Fiancé(e) visa is for people who intend to settle in the UK. If you don't intend to stay in the UK after the wedding, you need to get a special visitor marriage visa. The requirements are quite basics but you have to show that you have made some arrangements regarding the wedding, that you have enough money for the length of your stay and that you're going to leave the UK after the wedding.

As you're subject to immigration control, 7 days after your arrival in the UK you'll need to give a 15 day notice of your marriage at your local Registrar. After this notice, you'll be allowed to get married. This means that you'll only be able to get married 3 weeks after your arrival at the soonest. So you should take this in consideration when completing your application.

Of course, if you're a British citizen and can get a passport before the wedding, this doesn't apply. However we don't have enough information at the moment to confirm if your already a UK citizen or not.
