    Definitely yes !
    UK law only requires the marriage to be legally recognised in the country where it takes place.
    Good luck

    Not 100% true: there are some countries in which polygamous marriages are legal - in UK law, marriages from anywhere are recognised provided it's your only marriage at a given time.
