I just called Giovanni Translators and they confirmed what you just said. Just for everyone else's info, they also mentioned that you have to do everything within 60 days of getting married. This sounds like it will definitely simplify things and take some of the stress out of this process!


Ryan's girl: I also confirmed the steps you originally posted with my WC and she said that was perfect so I am now comfortable that these things will be legal in the end.

Thanks for all the help everyone!
If you don't mind me asking which part of Alberta are you in? Where did you find out about that Translator?? Do you by chance have any information on them that I could call and figure out all that I need to have done?? If you could let me know that would be wicked!!!
Thanks!!! :)

Hi Tracy,

 

I found out about that translator through Nanner431 on this thread. The first post outlines all the steps that you may be required to complete for paperwork and Nanner431 mentioned that she had success with Giovanni Translators helping her with getting it all done. The translators are located in Calgary and I just googled them to find a phone number.

Hi Tracy - they don't have a website as far as I know or that I could find when I was looking. One thing I will mention and that they mentioned when I sent mine in is that the consolate doesn't take docuements at month end so depending on when you send in - that may delay it a couple of days but nothing major.

JennyFTB- I hope you got your answer by now, but it has been confirmed to me by Jazmin that all we need are our passports and tourist card. So strange that she's making you jump through these hoops if your name matches the name on your passport. Jazmin just sent me the list of civil wedding packages to choose from and it clearly states on there what you need to bring. I'm sure you have a copy of it, but if you don't I can send it to you via email. Just pm me! Let me know what happens...

From the info i have rcvd from the palace in cabo - and all the info on this site - im going with symbolic. Transaltions, notorizing, the extra money down there for it to be legal and the cost up here - and the fact that you have to be at the hotel 3 business days not including the day you arrive, (with thurs dept i would get married the day before we left) i cant see doing it any other way. Well get everything done here before we go..... I cant be bothered with the extra hassle. Oh and giving blood in mexico doesnt sit well.... and im a pretty laid back person.

 

Thanks everyone for all the info.

Hi there, I know I'm coming in late but I found this site Getting Married in Mexico - Consulate General of Mexico in Toronto that says you need to do all the stuff with notarizing and translating and my TA said I'd need to register the wedding here after. I'm very confused now we're still in the process of choosing a resort and choosing between Mayan or Punta Cana (which I understand their marriage is legal here but very costly to get documents done). I'm going to follow up with my TA to see if she can help clear up the confusion. Any new info is greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone! Sorry i'm late in getting in on this conversation - i'm quite confused. My hotel is telling me I don't need to bring or translate anything but when I spoke to the Mexican Consulate - they INSIST that i need the Long-Form Birth certificates.

Is anyone here that recently got married at Dreams Tulum that can verify what is actually needed?

 

Thanks so much!

Nadine

    • 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!
