It can be much better to just start your own thread...

There is guidance here

Please review it and if you still have questions, by all means ask.

Great and I hope you complain and continue to complain until you get a satisfactory reason as to why the application took so long.

Directive,

Due religious/cultural diffirences some couples can only spend time together marriage. I am planning to go to Afghanistan in March or April for 3 weeks to get married and start the EEA family permit application. We will of course include wedding pictures.

Can they refuse EEA family permit because I can only spend 3 weeks in Afghanistan? UKBA cant expect people just leaving their jobs and income so they can spend months in Afghanistan/Africa etc etc?

They can only refuse you if it is a marriage of convenience. That is, if it is done solely for immigration purposes.

I would probably not recommend that you enclose more than your marriage certificate. In theory, if they have reason to believe it is a marriage of convenience, they should then contact you to ask for more evidence that it is not.
