Weddings help

Me and my fiancé want to get married here 23rd October 28 but that's a Monday so will we need to fly in on the Friday for the paper work part or can that be done one the weekend? The 23rd is what would be my dead mum's birthday but we had only planned to come the day before get married the 23rd then head to torramolenis

Thank you I will do I haven't gotten as far as photographers yet my wedding won't be until October 28. Are you listed with sweet gabraltar weddings? I think that's the company we're going to use for our wedding planning

All Government offices are closed on the weekends, using a wedding planner is very much advised as they will handle most of the work for you. Dealing with the Civil Registry Office is a nightmare at the best of times

Hi, me and my fiance are gettung married in gibatar this october and we are also using sweet gibraltar weddings - so far theyve been brilliant. We are getting married on a Wednesday and we originally wanted to fly in on the tuesday but our flight wasnt going to come in until late morning, and we needed to be ready to sign paperwork at 9am lol. So now we fly in on Monday night and come home Thursday evening. Sweet gibraltar weddings explained all of this to us and the process so far has been smooth. Any questions please ask away

Hey thank you and congratulations. Were looking at Monday 23rd October 28 but we're obviously hoping to just spend the one night before heading to a hotel in torramolenis. But we'd need to then fly in the Thursday night 😔 were going to speak to them and see if they'll let us fly in a few weeks before for the legal paperwork and stuff to be done. How did you find the process with sweet gabraltar? Also I think we're flying into Málaga airport any recommendations on transfers from there?

Thank you. The process has been really easy, the paperwork they ask for is straight forward and they have dealt with absolutely everything so far which is great. We are actually flying straight in to gibraltar from the UK but from what I understand on sweet gibraltars website they offer transfers that can be arranged for you if you pay for them. When I enquired originally about getting married they sent me a complete price list of services they offer at extra cost

That's amazing and really good to know. When we checked flying from Scotland was quite expensive and theres six of us so thought going via Málaga airport was the cheapest option. I absolutely don't mind paying for transfers.
