Weddings Part IIAttending a wedding is like being handed a licence to act like a twat.

I think that works both ways.Not sure what exactly the issue was, but my Brazilian wife had some extra hoops to jump through to get her resident visa, that she wouldn't have had to do if we had been married in the UK.
It definitely isn't a straight swap, although as far as rights to property / kids etc work, civil law would trump any lack of paperwork anyway.
