Thanks for the info

It sounds like most of what you have to do to get married to a Thai is the same as 2 farangs marrying with the exception of the Thai ID & House Book.

Have to admit I didn't realise that only the registration with the Amphur was required for a marriage to be legal in Thailand and elsewhere. That actually will make it easier for us because as there is only the 2 of us going to be there we didn't really want to go for all the pomp & ceremony. Just a quiet simple marriage in a country we both adore is what our wish is.

I do know there are companies in Thailand that will arrange everything for you (ceremony, reception & taking you to the Amphur for registration) which I think is fine if you have family & friends coming but the expense is a bit much for just 2.

I will definitely let you know how things go when we return.

Thanks for the wishes
