A question: where to marry? As a rule, the majority prefers to register a marriage in the country of the groom. If you are going to live in this country, that, naturally, registration of a marriage in the country of a prospective residence much more facilitates procedure of your moving and adaptation: the marriage will be for certain lawful, and you will not need to collect a heap of paper for legalization of your marriage as in a case with registration of a marriage in Ukraine or somewhere else. In case of a foreign marriage any internal requirements of the country can be not observed, and then your marriage can be nullified. Those pairs which registered a marriage in Russia (Ukraine etc.), strongly recommend not to follow this way -a heap of complexities with registration in Russia, then - still the big complexities with legalization of a marriage) in the country of the groom, so if you've made up your mind to make your mail order bride a wife it's better to marry in your country. For example, admits some states of the USA admit only church marriages. If you get married in territory of the country in the registry office under the law of this state your husband will not be considered married. Sometimes pairs, being afraid of problems with the visa of the bride, nevertheless decide to get married in Russia. Some agencies insist, that a marriage in Russia - the most safe variant. In my opinion, it does not correspond to the validity.
Before marrying your mail order bride in Russia, carefully think over all pros and cons and do not allow feeling of fear to confuse you. If your mutual relation is present, you will not have problems. But the visa of the bride protects you much more, than the visa of the wife. Also the Russian marriages cause an enhanced attention - whether they are fictitious, and in many countries you receive only the "conditional" entry visa for any period. If you doubt, that your groom will wait for you, or he doubts, that you will wait for him, - whether there is in general a sense to conclude a marriage, if you so are not sure in each other? Some men who have decided to marry a mail order bride dare to have 2 weddings - one in Russia, and another one is abroad. In this case it will be better to have the first wedding in the country of the groom.
You a have a good chance to marry your mail order bride twice!!!
