Hello brides to be! I have also been looking for this thread for a while now, I guess I still dont completely understand how this forum works but I am learning. My FI and I are getting married at the CasaMagna Marriott in Cancun and we are very excited. I am a little nervous (now even more after reading how far everyone else is in planning for the big day)

 

I really have a question for anyone out there that is getting married in Mexico and understands how we can get legally married and have a religious ceremony at the same time. Our pastor is going to come down to marry us but I am wondering if we need to have a justice of the peace or someone in Mexico to also be a part of our ceremony to make it legal. Does anyone have an answer to this?

 

Besides that, I am really going to get down to business and start looking for all of those details that normal brides had done 10 months ago.

 

Wish me luck and I will keep you posted.

Welcome, almost-date-twin! haha Don't feel bad about stuff you should/would have been doing 10 months ago, I'm having my wedding six months to the day since my FI asked me lol. We've been together 8 years but it was either going to be in six months or 1.5 years from now. I'd rather sooner than later so now I'm trying to get everything organized as best and quickly as possible. I'm here for ya!!

hmmm...I'm not sure on this, since we're getting legally married here before we go. Can you ask your WC?? I know if we wanted to do a legal marriage at our resort, they would have helped with the paperwork and everything, but I don't think we needed a diff minister....good luck!

Where did you get your pashminas?

[Jen_S]

I am right along with you Heather we still have a lot of stuff to do for the OOT bags and ceremony but we really have to wait to find out how many people are coming in order to do that so I imagine in Jan and Feb we will be so busy.

 

We are getting our pashminas in NYC once we know how many ladies are coming. If you search on this forum a lot of girls have ordered them.

I got mine on ebay - if you search for "lot pashmina" you'll get the larger quantity ones, and you can always email the seller to see about a deal on a certain number.
