    In theory, for at least the three weeks during which the "bans" are displayed in your local Registry Office and (optionally) read-out in your local parish church

    That depends on the visa he comes in with. If he applies for a fiance visa before coming to the UK, then he will not be allowed to work while on that visa, but you can get married immediately and you MUST marry within 6 months. Once married he can apply for a marriage visa, which gives him full working privileges. See http://www.workpermit.com/uk/fiance.htm .
