We are having a small ceremony in December (visa pending) to get things moving for AOS and then we're having a large family/friends reception in the new year at a friends property (they have a lot of land and also got married there)

How can we prove our intentions for our actual ceremony in December as we cannot book anything with city hall until the approval?

We have correspondence between us and our friends for our reception etc but obviously being our friends they don't require down payments and booking forms!

I have receipts for my dress and ring, guest list for both ceremony and reception.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!

You just tell them.

They realise it is hard to book stuff until visa is in hand, and in fact most embassies recommend you do NOT book weddings/ flights until the visa is in hand.

If you are talking about proving those things at a London K1 interview....they don't care about your ceremony, ring dress, relationship, skyping, or visits. No proving of any of that. You have a short conversation. If they ask "when do you plan to get married?", you can say "as soon as possible after I get there." It is really that easy in London.
