I need advice on getting married to a Lao woman. I know we can be over a year waiting for marriage papers and would have to pay about 2000 dollars for the privilege.
So rather than spend 2000 that way, Could I get married in Thailand or another country and at least we would have a holiday for the money instead of giving it to some marriage company. I should add that my country has no Embassy in Thailand only a consolute. I do have and Embassy in Hanoi. does anyone know the procedure for getting married abroad, and is this a viable alternative to waiting one year and spending 2000 dollars on papers.

You can get married in Thailand. Check with the Lao embassy in Bangkok as to what paperwork you need.

It does not take a year to get the paperwork done in Laos.

It can be done in 3 or 4 months. There are many agencies who will undertake the paperwork on your behalf.
