Our guest list is only 20 people so I am thinking about just going at it on my own...would anyone advise against this? How much hassle is it to reserve a minister/officiant and get the lab and paperwork done? Maye charges $975 if you do a civil ceremony in Cabo and $675 if you just do a symbolic ceremony. I'm doing a symbolic ceremony, so i'm not sure what the legalities are if you are legally getting married in Mexico. Her flat rate is for her services (day of coordinator, organizer...), but she charges you extra is you need decorations, vendors...

Welcome and Congratulations!

The most beautiful example of this partnership is the marriage relationship. Earlier, the two mothers poured individual colors of sand into the center container. This symbolizes that the marriage is based on the strength of the individuals and their families. Now, I will layer neutral sand, which symbolizes that the marriage is grounded. Today, this marriage relationship is symbolized through the pouring of these two individual containers of sand. One, representing you, Kristin, and all that you were, all that you are, and all that you will ever be, and the other representing you, Stephen, and all that you were, all that you are, and all that you will ever be. As these two containers of sand are poured into the center container, the individual containers of sand will no longer exist, but will be joined together as one. Just as these grains of sand can never be separated, our prayer for you today is that your lives together would be longer than the time it would take to separate the individual grains of sand." You can change whatever you want... i like that!

We're having a symbolic ceremony @ Dreams Los cabos...do they provide a marriage certificate afterwards?

So cool...!

So much so that when she does finally email me...i totally forgot that i emailed her!

I like The Family Man w/ Nicholas Cage and Tea Leoni. It's kinda Christmasy...it takes place during winter.
