Winter the right moment to get married in Tbilisi

Leave a comment

When it comes to choosing the perfect season for a wedding, winter often gets overlooked. However, in Tbilisi, this chilly season offers a unique charm that makes it an ideal backdrop for your special day. Here are a few reasons why winter is the right moment to tie the knot in this enchanting city.

Tbilisi transforms into a winter wonderland when the cold sets in. The cobblestone streets, historic architecture, and beautiful bridges take on a magical quality, especially if you’re lucky enough to witness a light dusting of snow. The twinkling lights and decorations around the city create a romantic ambiance that is hard to replicate in other seasons.

Winter weddings tend to be more intimate, as guests are more likely to commit to a smaller gathering. This allows for a cozy, close-knit atmosphere where you can truly connect with each person attending. Plus, fewer weddings are held during the winter months, which means more availability at your dream venue.

Tbilisi boasts a variety of stunning venues, from charming cafes to luxurious hotels. In winter, many places embrace the season with beautiful decorations and cozy interiors, perfect for an indoor ceremony.

Winter in Tbilisi brings with it a range of seasonal culinary delights. You can incorporate traditional Georgian dishes into your wedding menu, offering guests hearty and warming options that reflect the local culture. Pair it with some mulled wine or hot chacha, and you’ll have a feast that everyone will remember.

The winter landscape provides a breathtaking backdrop for wedding photos. Snow-capped hills, frosty trees, and the picturesque old town create stunning visuals that capture the essence of your day. At Phototbilisi.com you can take advantage of the soft winter light to create dreamy and romantic images.

Winter also brings a sense of festivity and joy. With Christmas and New Year celebrations, the entire city is filled with a warm spirit that can enhance your wedding celebration. You can incorporate seasonal themes and decorations, making your wedding feel even more special.

Planning a wedding in the winter months often means less competition for venues and vendors. You’ll likely find more flexibility in booking dates and services, making the planning process smoother and less stressful. Plus, you might snag some off-season discounts!

Winter in Tbilisi is more than just a cold season; it’s a time filled with warmth, love, and beauty. If you’re dreaming of a romantic and intimate wedding, consider embracing the magic of winter in this stunning city. With its unique charm and festive spirit, Tbilisi in winter just might be the perfect place to say “I do.”

How to divorce in Tbilisi 2024

Did you get married in Tbilisi and now the marriage does not work?

Are you facing challenges in your marriage that seem insurmountable? Sometimes, despite our best wishes for everlasting love, life takes its own course. If you’re considering divorce, here is some general information that might assist you.



Before proceeding with divorce, it’s essential to consider seeking legal counsel in your country for a Divorce Settlement Agreement. This agreement addresses various aspects such as roles, property division, affidavits, childcare, and any other critical issues that require mutual agreement before initiating the divorce process.

In Georgia, there are two primary options to obtain a divorce certificate:

Option A: Divorce Procedure in Georgia

This involves both parties (Groom and Bride) appearing before local authorities in Georgia to sign the divorce application.  This method requires a physical presence in Georgia.

Following the application, the divorce certificate, per Georgian law, is issued within 6 working days. Further steps involve international validation through official translation, apostille, or legalization by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which typically takes an additional 2-4 working days.

If you wish to receive a quote for this full procedure, kindly complete the form below. You have the option to stay in Tbilisi for a minimum of 10 working days or have the divorce certificate delivered to your home via express courier, requiring only a 1-day stay in Tbilisi.

Option B: Power of Attorney Procedure
Alternatively, a “power of attorney” approach allows the divorce process to proceed without the need for both parties to be physically present in Georgia. This method helps save on travel expenses, including flights, accommodations, PCR tests, etc.
To initiate this process, both parties need to provide a power of attorney in English, each with an apostille valid for Georgia. This document grants full authority to act on behalf of both parties for legal requirements, document requests, and divorce proceedings.

Once we receive the power of attorney documents with the necessary seals, we’ll handle the process per Georgian law, including translation and notarization. After 6 working days, the divorce certificate is issued, followed by the necessary international paperwork.

Certificate of divorce in english with the proper seal will be released in some working days.Than you will get all paperwork to your address by express courier .

Choosing to come together to Georgia can expedite and simplify the process. You can stay for 1-2 days, and the documents can be delivered to your home by DHL. To receive a quote for this approach, please fill out the form below.

The best Basic way to get married in Tbilisi

Leave a comment

You cannot believe all the issues could happen during a wedding procedure abroad. The Wedding in Tbilisi is very sensible act related bureaucracy and it should be kept with all the attention. It does not mean to spread money if you are not interested in a ceremony. As I already wrote about “Simple” wedding in Tbilisi, hold in the public hall, I advise to follow a “Basic” safe step for your date, even if you wish just “sign and go” marriage path.

What is mentioned in Tbilisi as “Basic” wedding is the best way to get a hassle free service, stress free and with high save of money, despect to the fact the word “Simple” could make you think.



What is the difference between Simple and Basic wedding in Tbilisi?

The Basic Wedding I usually offer to my guest is including the professional assistance, the documents ready in advance, a confirmed time to apply for wedding, a private wedding room to execute the civil rite, the civil rite (or just the sign if you prefer) hassle-free procedure after wedding to release the international documents and of course my photography service that you will treasure for years to come.



All this procedure, so called Basic, just cost few money more. A very ridiculous money difference against a high lost of time, unsafe queue in public hall and no warranty in the right document release.

Comparing the procedure for the Simple service, in the Basic package you will have an official attendant of the Ministry of Interior following your application, inserting your data, checking careful your request and everything while you are comfortable waiting sitting down in a clean, safe, private lounge.

In the Simple service, you will queue up behind other people till your number will come. You will meet just an operator in a public office that have many different bureaucracy procedure to follow before and after you. In the Basic service your attendant is just specialist for the wedding and knows in a deep way what to do related weddings, expecially for foreigners applications.



In the Simple service, after application you have to go away and to waite for sms to confirm your application is valid. The sms can come anytime during the day and sometimes do not come or come the day after (including issues in your telephone, sim card or whatever). In the Basic service you will have a fixed time after application for your civil rite, even straight after application if you do not wish any ceremony you can get married.

In the Simple service your civil rite does not exist, you just sign in while people is queuing up to your desk. In the basic service you can have a private lounge for the civil rite. That is nice even you wish just to sign or to have a romantic short ceremony and a couple of photos together. Absolutely great if you have some guests to you as it gives elegance without to loose money.



Actually, I provide for basic package to everybody asking my help or my photography service in Tbilisi. This pandemia time has been a proof how much the privacy, safety and cleanness are important to manage a perfect stress free, smooth, easy procedure for your wedding in Tbilisi.

Ask for a Basic service, email me.
