Hi Teddy. I think you should have a wedding ceremony in both places. One being more unofficial without the legal document signing. That is what I did when I married back in 1975. We had to be married to both sign off on the mortgage and wanted our house prior to our church scheduled wedding. So 1 month earlier we got legally married in the park with only 2 witnesses, then had our church wedding on schedule. We didn't tell our families until 10 yrs later..lol So that is my suggestion, 2 ceremonies. All the best to you!!!
