we are doing the legal ceremony and all i've gotten claudia to send me was the judge's speech (but not what the vows are or what is said for the exchange of rings ... you know, the important parts!!!!!!!!) ... i have emailed her *again* today to ask for the vows and the order of the ceremony ... i figure if i keep asking her in every way i can think of, eventually i've got to get an actual answer, right? LOL so frustrating! oh and she did confirm that you are allowed to add a sand ceremony and a reading, but the judge (apparently there's a new one they are dealing with) won't read those parts. you will have to get a friend or family member to read it.

you can find the judge's speech here: http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...-31#post493856

So you are no more two but only one, what God had joined together let no man separate. Congratulations!!! You may kiss your Bride. Let me introduce you for the first time Mr. & Mrs. ________________ after reading it, i decided we would write our own vows..its kinda too religious for me, plus i think its much more beautiful saying whats in your heart to your new hubby!

Does the sand ceremony come after this? I am confused where it goes??

[**~Jenn~**]

I think everyone is confused where the Sand ceremony comes in at. I think it's after the rings, but before "You may now kiss the bride" LOL

Same here, so confusing... so do they read those script first, then the sand ceremony script, and then 'kiss the bride'?

Does anyone know if I need to provide sand ceremony script to them or they have it?

I don't have enough points to post

[mc5363]

I don't know how to upload, or maybe I just don't have enough points. The private dinners range between $200 to $280, but if you have 10 or more rooms booked for your wedding party, you get a free additional package (Eternity Honeymoon Package) that includes the private dinner for two, a salt scrub or mini facial, two 25 minute tension relief massages, fresh flowers and fruit basket upon arrival and a champagne breakfast in bed the day after arrival. I wanted to choose of the platinum menu though since my FI is a picky eater, so I am paying the difference. It's $200 for the standard and $280 for the platinum so I will pay the .80. I thought it was worth it...nice, romantic surprise after we're married. You can have the dinner set up on the pier or at one of the two tiki huts on the grounds. The WC sent me some pics too and it looks really nice!

they have one that they use, or you could use a different one but you'll take a chance on the officiant's english, lol. if you are doing a legal ceremony you need to have to provide your own reader because the judge will not do it. if you're having your own person read it, it can say whatever you want it to!
