We were defrauded by Alan and his partner Nigel, of some 1800 euros. However, after refusing to give up on getting the money returned and having chased them online to Cadiz and then Alicante, we finally managed to obtain a full refund. Such a shame this happened. My partner remarked at the time of meeting him that he wore old shoes and an un-ironed shirt. We should have heeded the warning signs! But as I say, the fact is we did in the end receive a refund. As is the case with many so-called 'Christians' - some are far from it!!!!!!

this is in response to an email I sent him questioning his 'Oxford' background and credentials in general (I did not even mention in the email that I AM a resident in Spain..........Ceremonial Wedding Blessing in Spain‏

Many thanks for your contact form, I am afraid that you would not be allowed by the laws of The Kingdom of Spain to have a marriage here, you are not resident which you have to be and have to have been so for at least two years, sometimes much longer.

The marriages conducted in Spain for foreigners are Ceremonial only unless the above applies.

All the other information you ask for is clearly stated on the websites , incidently you do not need a CIF number if you are a sole trader or self employed in which case an NIE number is used.

You clearly have not read the websites otherwise you would know the details you ask.Please also read the " clients comments or testimonial" this will give you an idea of what I am like as a person.

I do hope that you find a suitable celebrant for your day, incidently I have officiated at numerous "grand scale weddings" in my life, and have worked with Royalty and Presidents so it does not faze me.

I also speak Spanish which does help when dealing with bureaucracy.

There are only a handful of celebrants in the whole of Spain, so I sincerely hope you find the one you are looking for.

I always give 110% to my clients , I sincerely hope that you find the person who will be able to provide what you want, by the tone of your email, clearly I am not that person.
