Oh it will be fine. Everyone who has done it that has posted here on BDW says it's so similar to the legal ceremony that no one will know unless you tell them. And since so many couples do the symbolic ceremonies now, resorts are much more in-tune with making sure they appear true to form, for all intents and purposes.

I was worried about this at first too, but no longer.

Now, if I can just get FH to keep his mouth shut b/c he is so excited about signing our legal paperwork he's been letting it slip that we'll be legally married before we leave for our DW. I think duct tape...bunny_4.gif

And, you can always bring your souveneir marriage certificate & sign it after the ceremony so it looks like something official is happening...just some thoughts.
Christa - Chief Investigator...........THAT IS HILLARIOUS!! I keep hearing Dragnet every time I see your picture!smile120.gif

Anyhow, I was thinking the same thing, just take a souvenier certificate and have your attendants sign it.

We are doing a Justice of the Peace wedding here, before hand as well and have only told a couple of people. Our thoughts were the same as yours in thinking we could save the extra money and spend it on something else. Plus We didn't want to be bothered with bloodwork and sending birth certificates.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
