Secretly Married in China (and didn't tell family until NOW)

LAST YEAR, Miu and I got legally married in a private ceremony in Shanghai, China with just the two of us, and didn't tell our extended friends and family until now...
Join us as we share with you our secret wedding day vlog, that not even my parents or best friends have seen, and the behind the scenes on how to get legally married in China.

Getting married is a huge step for any relationship, especially when you are both from different cultures. When we first discussed getting married, neither of us knew how to go about getting legally married as a foreigner in China and had no married friends in international relationships to give us advice- So, we filmed the whole process for you incase you are an international couple looking to get married in China.

I couldn't believe that the whole wedding cost so little:
50 GBP for the affirmation at the British Consulate, 80RMB (~10GBP) for the translation, and 80RMB (~10GBP) for the photos for the marriage license. The appointment to get legally married and get the wedding certificate was FREE!!

Stay tuned over the next few months as we celebrate our English wedding in Oxfordshire and our Chinese wedding in Yangzhou!

去年，我和Miu在中国上海举行了一场只有我们两个人的小型私人婚礼，并没有告诉所有的朋友和亲戚，直到现在...

请和我们一起看看我们的秘密婚礼视频，甚至我的父母和最好的朋友都没有看过，以及如何在中国合法结婚的幕后故事。

结婚是任何关系中的一个巨大步骤，尤其是当你们来自不同文化背景时。当我们第一次讨论结婚时，我们都不知道作为外国人如何在中国合法结婚，也没有国际婚姻的朋友可以给我们建议——所以，我们为你们拍摄了整个过程，以防你们是一个想在中国结婚的国际情侣。

我简直不敢相信整个婚礼花费这么少：
在英国领事馆的宣誓费用是50英镑，翻译费是80人民币（约10英镑），婚姻证件照片费用是80人民币（约10英镑）。预约合法结婚和领取结婚证是免费的！！
