Wedding Ceremonies

Soon after Amelia and Brett Irwin chose a date to get married, they were
disappointed as Brett’s brother was getting married in the same month.

Instead, they used their wedding budget of £10,000 budget to travel around
the world, after a court marriage.

Amelia, an event planner, said: 'Brett is South African so we had planned a
huge wedding on safari in Africa but his brother and his girlfriend suddenly
decided to marry in the same year. We decided to get married at a registry
office before embarking on a month-long honeymoon. Then I suggested why not get
married in each country on the way round so we could invite whoever would like
to come.”

Their trip took them through world’s most exotic locales, including Paris,
Moscow, Beijing and Nepal

Turns out, travelling the world is cheaper than a wedding. 'It seemed perfect
and was the answer to all our problems. We didn't have to pay for others to eat,
drink, and party and were able to spend the wedding money on ourselves while
travelling the world.' Amelia said. But it did mean carrying eight prom dress uk around the world.

“I'd always wanted to go to Moscow and neither of us had been to Paris so we
started there and planned to go to Moscow”

“'As we were in China we wanted to see the Terracotta Army and we both wanted
to go to India.”

'We flew over Nepal and thought we might as well stop there too before flying
from there to Delhi.”

'China was pretty difficult as they don't allow Google or Facebook due to the
communist regime

“At Monate game lodge in South Africa, the wedding coordinator did everything
for me, from finding a florist, a make-up artist, a photographer and everything
in between”

“'We were both blown away by Russia and the Russian people – it was easily
the best country we visited”

They ended the trip in South Africa, where Brett's brother’s wedding was
being held:'We could only get one month off work per year so we either had to
miss their wedding and come to Africa for one month or cancel our wedding and
attend theirs.
