He's put his wedding on hold to represent England in this month's Four Nations tournament but that's not going to stop Luke Robinson's bride-to-be from celebrating.

While the halfback will be toiling against the best that Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea can throw at him, his fiancee Laura Towler will be entertaining 60 guests on the Mediterranean island of Cyprus.

With the couple's guests securing travel arrangements for the scheduled October 25 wedding, Robinson said it had been too late to call the whole thing off.

So while the actual wedding has been delayed until November 20, Robinson's friends and family will be enjoying a 10-day celebration in Cyprus with Towler.

Not that the Huddersfield No.7 had to convince Towler to let him chase his dream of playing for England.

"My girlfriend's obviously a really good girl and she just said to me, when we sat down, she said: `there's no decision to be made, it's something you've always wanted to do, representing your country, so you've got to go out there and I fully support you'," Robinson said.

"She was saying that with tears running down her face.

"It wasn't just the fact that we were getting married, it was the fact that we were flying to Cyprus, and the fact that 60 of my close friends and family had all paid and booked to go out there.

"They're not going to be able to get the money back either.

"(Laura is) going to be in a foreign country, surrounded by all her family and friends, in a gorgeous place and a gorgeous hotel and it was two years in the making and she's not going to be getting married."

Robinson instead said the hardest person to inform of the change in plans, was his pending father-in-law.

"He ... said to me, `I'm not going to lie and not say that I'm a little bit miffed, but I support whatever you and Laura decide to do'," Robinson said.

It wasn't just international wedding plans Robinson was forced to abandon - he'd also lined up a five-day bucks' bender in Las Vegas.

"I just had to wave them off and they all went to Vegas without me," he said.

"They're back now, but they said they had the best five days, it was the best stag-do they've ever been on, even though the stag weren't there.

"I was like `cheers, boys'."

Robinson hasn't "even looked" how much out of pocket he is, but the couple, who have been together seven years, will now actually tie the knot at a small "weekend job" in England on November 20.

South Sydney star Sam Burgess was at least one of Robinson's English teammates to praise the halfback's commitment to the cause however.

"Good on him," the star back-rower said.

"To do that shows his commitment to the team and the country.

"I'm really glad that he did that."
