This isn't really an etiquette question exactly.. But I studied abroad and made a lot of really great friends that I want to invite to my wedding. I'm totally understanding of the fact that most of them can't make it because of the cost, but one of my friends is from Poland and I really want for her to be a BM.
She has the funds to come and really wants to come. But today she sent me a message and said that she was really worried that she won't get a visa to come.
I've noticed in a lot of threads that several of you seem to be knowledgeable about international related issues.
Do you have any advice or "words of wisdom" that I can give her and any of my other guests that would come but would have to get a visa?
It was a pretty big culture shock for me that she couldn't just come with a passport, but I knew this awhile ago. But, I guess I took for granted that it was easy for me to get my Austrian visa and I didn't need a visa to visit her in Poland.
Any feedback would be so very much appreciated!
(Also, the wedding would be September 2015 if that helps at all. I wanted to plan it far enough away that I could give them a heads up if they wanted to go through the visa process.)
