October 08 Brides - What's Left to Do

[B&J2008]

2 months from today...YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lots and lots to do in the next two weeks. I'm shipping everything the week of Aug 24th, so I should (key word being should) be able to post my planning thread shortly after that.

 

Question for you guys...Why are you making legal day about a month before the wedding? Is it for legal stuff, preference, or other reason? I was going to do it the week before but thought I would ask why you all chose to do it sooner.

I am thinking of doing our legal ceremony the day after our wedding. My friend is an officiant and she is going to marry us illegally in Mexico. She is on our flight back from Mexico, so I thought it would be sort of cool for her to do it once we land in LAX.

 

I have a huge problem with getting married beforehand, I really feel like it will take away from the big day.

I struggled with when to do it too. I am doing it two days before we leave. I am not making a big deal of it at all. I don't even want to dress up or anything. I feel like it is just signing paperwork, my real wedding is in Mexico. I am not waiting til I get back, no way! I want to officially be a Mrs. on the honeymoon. I will just pretend for the 6 days before the ceremony that I am still a Miss. : )

We are doing ours because it was what they had available. Didn't want to take the chance and wait to long. I know they didn't have any openings in August.

What time did you all Cabo brides set the ceremony time for? Yarai said to do it at 4..I just wanted to take a poll.

Thanks for responses ladies. That was my thinking in doing it about a week before and not making a big deal about it, so when we have the ceremony in MX it will be more like we are getting legally married there, since we will have only been married a couple of days.

I don't know what it is but I hit the two month mark and I am SOOOOO excited. We leave in 55 days. That seems so soon.

Just to participate in the conversation, we are legally getting married in Mexico.
