Witnesses

[chicklet]

Hi Girls,

 

Filling out my form to confirm my wedding at Riu Ocho Rios. Did anyone use a family member as a witness?? I thought I read somehwhere that family members weren't allowed to be witnesses

For those that have already been married, did all four people you wrote down have to sign as a witness

 

Help on this one would be appreciated

I'm not sure, but it would be a good thing to know. Help us out ladies ....

I got married in the mayan riviera and I was allowed to use our 4 parents as witnesses. I was also concerned because I knew some places didn't allow family members, but obviously our area does (might not be the entire mayan riviera, but it would be the same for Playa Del Carmen area because that's what's marked on our certificate even though we got married in Tulum)

Thanks ALR..I was worried as I was listing my FH's brother as one of the witnesses. All the rest are friends but I was concerned about him.
You wanna list people that you know are going forsure!!
So u need only two witnesses then ..that's weird they make you list four.
Thanks the help..you're super!

I too filled out my form using our siblings as witnesses and they never said anything to me about it. Sounds like it's not a big deal after all

Yep family is fine. I asked Chandlyn before I got there. My in-laws were my witnesses. And they don't have to be there 48 hours. Just have to be present at your wedding!

Phew!

 

We're going to use in laws and my sister and not sure about the 4th. We need 4 and all witnesses have to be there with us on the Monday (we get married on Friday) with their documents... not sure why, but that's what our WC wants.

My sister and my husband's brother were our witnesses, they never said anything about it.
