Thai Marriage ..... And Then

Hi

I am just back from Thailand where i met that beautiful woman. We both fell in love and did the Buddhist ceremony with the monks and according to their system we are now Buddhist married. But now the fun starts.

I found out that i still need to marry again with all sorts of paperwork. Can someone please bring me some light in the darkness?

Is it better to marry official as well in Thailand or is it better to bring her over and give her a proper European wedding?

Immigration acts as if she is some criminal and are very unfriendly. What to say to them and what not? What questions you can expect?

Any hints on what to say and what not absolutely?

I am sure they are using their scripts to let you fall through. Any visibility there?

I live in Ireland and she lives in Thailand. What paperwork do we precisely need?

Thanks a lot for your time, help and patience
