Right.

Been having a read through the direct.gov guidance, but need to see if anyone here has any experience of this.

We already have a holiday booked in September this year, and are looking to marry in October and then do our Honeymoon after. This means we can't make use of the 3 month prior to ceremony name change.

According to the guidance, it looks to me like we do the following...

1 - Book holiday in her current, 'maiden' name.
2 - get married
3 - go on honeymoon with passport and holiday documentation showing 'maiden name'
4 - on return, then deal with name changes.

It seems that this is acceptable, and considering we wouldn't have had chance to do all the other documentation name changes this seems relatively sensible to me.

Anyone with first hand experience of this sort of thing like to comment? are any countries likely to be upset about this?

This is what we did.
