Can two Brits travel to Vietnam to get married?

Well
It all depends.
You did not mention but I assume that you guys are planning to get married to each other, so we are not talking about any kind of kinky relationships here .

In this way, your marriage is purely regulated by the UK government. Vietnam has nothing to do with it.
YOu may want to check more info here or call the British consulate.

If you are talking from a pure ceremonial aspect, then members here can help you with that.

Sorry..yes married to each other.  I am prettying sure it can be done but was just wondering if anyone here had first hand experience of it.  I will contact the Embassy, having had a look on the Uk Gov website.
So anyone with any first hand experience on this subject and any of you who could give me a few pointers ..am thinking about Dalat, Da Nang in the north ..anywhere anyone would recommend for a romantic wedding/honeymoon?  Cheers

The problem with traveling in Vietnam is that it is not for the uninitiated, even for those who have been there (as you mentioned you had). Experience can vary a lot from the very good to the extremely bad, so if you want a memorable experience and don't want to spoil it, you are taking your chances.

Again, you didn't mention your budget range, but if money is not a major constraint, Con Dao Six Senses is hard to beat

I appreciate that, I was born in Vietnam but my family and I escaped the bombing and are now British subjects.  I still have some distant cousins and family out there but this wedding is more of a personal thing than a big family gathering. 

Thanks for the tip on Dao Six Sense...been to the Sixth sense one in Hua Hin in Thailand.  Fantastic, am sure the one in nam is just as brilliant!

Thanks!

Bombing??? wait. Which one are you talking about?
Unless you were a die-hard VC holing up along the Ho chi Minh trail before 1972, you did not get much of that in the South as a civilian. Up North, it was another story.

I was a just a child when it happened and our family were one of the original 'boat people' who escaped the war in Vietnam...anyway, sorry..off topic subject..can  please hear more from other members with regards to ideas as where to marry/honeymoon in Vietnam..thanks!

Just some more ideas:
Ho Tram strip (casino) may be opening before you get there.
I would also suggest a hidden gem, in the off-peak season

Previously, villa of the last VIetnamese emperor.

I know about a Westerner couple returning to this hotel every year for the last 10 years at least.

OTherwise, there are the usual suspects: Mui Ne, Da Nang, Hue, Ba Na, Vung Tau, may be Phu Quoc in the South.
