After doing some research and contacting other age...

After doing some research and contacting other agencies, I decided to use Siam Legal register my marriage. All of the staff, especially Rex and Kanpitcha have been in contact and provided great advice and clarified many of the specific details involved. As I organized the affirmation of marriage from the UK embassy myself, they also offered me a small discount. I worked out, once travel to Bangkok, translation fees, taxis to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and hotel costs due to waiting for the affirmation to be legalized were added up it would have cost me pretty much the same price as if I had done it all myself. However, as the process for Brits in particular to get married has got a bit more complicated due to changes at the embassy, I probably would have screwed it up doing it myself, causing extra costs on my part. Also, it allowed my wife and I to return home to continue working, as opposed to needing to take a week off work......Due to changes in procedure at my fiance's local Amphoe office up north, Siam Legal also recommended us to register the marriage in Bangkok, which turned out to be a wise suggestion. Miss Kanpitcha from Siam Legal met us at one of the district offices (khet) in Bangkok, and she did a great job to guide us, help translate any technical terms I didn't understand, and also witness my partner and I signing the marriage certificate with her co-worker........As part of the package, Siam Legal have offered to translate the new marriage certificate into English and legalize it, and then courier it up to our house, saving on extra hotel costs. And finally, as I plan to switch to a marriage visa in the coming months they have given me up to date advice of the new documents and requirements needed to process the Non-O visa......My experience with Siam Legal has been great, and they seem to have covered almost every base which I asked from them. I would highly recommend using them to register a marriage. :)
