Question from Lourdes:
I met a wonderful man in Vancouver B.C. We want to get married but I am a Filipino Citizen and divorce is not allowed in the Philippines. Can we still get married here in Vancouver even if i am not divorced? Will the marriage be valid in Canada?
Answer from Bridal Expert Angela:
Hi Lourdes,
I am sorry to say that unless you can get the marriage annulled or declared null and void (two different things), any subsequent marriage will legally leave you open to a possible charge of bigamy. Follow this link for more information.
I wish you well.
