I'm a bit confused about attaching wedding pics with the application.
The thing is, we only had a nikkah ceremony not proper rukhsati, as we decided that as soon as she gets her visa, I'll goto pakistan and have baraat and walima.
So, we do have pics where we're sitting together, and with families as well.
Also, one or two pics where we're going outside the hall.
So, my question is, has anyone applied just based on nikkah?
And, can home office put an objection based on nikkah only?
Kindly respond soon, as I'm a bit worried
