Legal vs. Symbolic Ceremony, RIU Palace....


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I am still undecided on Legal vs. Symbolic for my ceremony this October at the RIU Palace.

 

Can anyone tell me what the difference is? Also, if anyone has had the symbolic ceremony at the RIU , please send me the reading or options that we have. Thanks!!!!!

symbolic is much easier. No blood work, no paper work. Show up and get married. This is what we are doing. Getting legally married before hand. I dont have the ceremony wording for the palace, since im at sante fe. They have a different minister. he by the way is a member on here. he would be the best at all the info. Look under the cabo sub. He has his own thread. Hope this helps.

We are doing a symbolic ceremony as well...I think in the end it's going to save us so much time and paperwork (not to mention blood work! cry.gif)

I actually have the name and email of the minister who does the symbolic ceremonies at the Palace (Kelly is right, he does have a thread on here): Marco Arechiga-marco@loscabostoday.com.

I emailed him to see how the ceremony will work and he gave me this outline:

 

·Welcome

 

·Charge of Marriage (Meaning of Marriage)

 

·Vows Exchange (your own vows)

 

·Rings Exchange

 

·Blessing of the union and couple

 

·Pronouncement

 

Presentation of the Couple

 

We are writing our own vows, so it was important to me to see if we could incorporate this into the ceremony, and Marc said he is more than willing to do so!

 

Hope this helps! cheesy.gif

    • 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!
