It finally worked Sarah! I can now see it in my computer. This work computer acts weird on me sometimes. Thanks for the tips too!

For Leia and other BDW brides,

I have attached the order of ceremony, poems and readings from our ceremony. I hope it helps. Our officiant is Rev. Marco Arechiga. He gave an explanation of the Filipino (and Spanish) traditions of the Arrhae, Veil and Cord during the ceremony. Rev. Marco has introduced himself in the Cabo section. I will ask him for a copy of the ceremony but you can also communicate with him through e-mails.

Here is the Cover of our Wedding Program. I just bought the Anna Griffin Wedding Program from Michaels and used it as cover and printed all the readings in Vellum paper. Remember to use the Vellum Paper that is right for your computer. I have an inkjet printer and I was using the vellum paper for laser and it bled and then I noticed that the paper was for laser so I bought one for inkjet and it was fine. Also you will notice that I have printed on two sides of the vellum paper. Most printers will be jam (even the ones at Kinkos) if you use those 5x7 vellum papers. Use the 81/2 x 11 vellum papers and print on both sides then cut it in half. Also in between the Vellum papers I have a blank white paper (regular photocopier paper) so the writing in vellum will be more visible.

I have also attached the Irish Wedding Blessing. In our ceremony we have incorporated both Filipino and Irish Wedding Traditions to honor our culture and heritage.

Thank you so much for the awesome review!!!
My wedding is so similar to yours as we are staying at the Riu, having the wedding at Sunset da Mona Lisa, using Fiestas Los Cabos as our WC, and having Juan Carlos as our photog!
One thing I was waiting to hear about most though was Mona Lisa...did I miss that review? How was the food, the service, etc?? Please elaborate.

Also, we have guests looking to book at Riu Santa Fe...do you think we should just tell everyone to stay at the Palace?

HI Amanda! Great to know that you will be in good hands! I hope Muriel of Fiestas Los Cabos will be your WC. She is wonderful!

I am revising my review of Sunset da Mona LIsa. We are just finding out from our guests that there were charges made that our guests did not get receive. I will update this review once we have settled this with SML management.
