For future reference, I have shopped for translators (send e-mail to 2), and found a good price: 50$ for both of our birth certificates (the other one was 50$ each). Mind you, if they have ever done one, they certainly have a template where they just plug your personal info, so it's a very quick job. He'll spend more time meeting me than working on my papers. All in all, not that much trouble, and not very expensive. Not worth all the worry I had over that.

 

With my BF passport sitting at the post office, paperwork is almost done 3 weeks early.

LOL, no he won't.

How would you translate : Join us for a wedding in paradise"?
"Joignez-vous à nous pour un mariage au paradis" is a little long, and for some reason I don't feel like paradis in french means the same thing as paradise in english.
I wrote "Billet pour un mariage à la plage", but I'm not sure I like it.

I really feel you can use paradis in French, and that it will convey the same meaning. I often use "Je me sens au paradis, ou Un coin de paradis".

You translation does sound a bit heavy, both because French sentences are longer, and literal translations hard to do. What about "Joignez-nous pour un mariage au paradis" or "Rendez-vous pour notre mariage au paradis", "Invitation au paradis pour notre mariage"

Here I'm doing more of a "free translation": "Une plage paradisiaque, notre mariage, votre présence", "Rendez-vous sur une plage paradisiaque pour notre mariage".

or any combination of those!

Hey girls!!

 

Another Montreal bride! We live in NDG, too! We're getting married at the Majestic Colonial in July this year. Can't wait! We will be doing a symbolic ceremony and secretly doing a small legal ceremony here before we leave. Has anyone ever done that? We got all of the papers we have to fill in from Etat Civil, but things are always so complicated in this province... nothing is straight forward! Any guidance that anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated!

My first wedding was a civil ceremony and it wasn't very hard. just fill in the forms and make an appointment, about 3 weeks later. That was it. For this wedding we have decided to do a secret civil ceremony too. We will just keep our parents in the loop, but not tell them until it is very close.

 

As for the boudoir shoot, I'm not doing one (budget too tight, and went over budget for my wedding dress, oops), but if I ahd been I would have used Amelie Cousineau.

I really wish I could bring her to Cuba and do the boudoir shoot, as I love her style. At least I'll get to do a studio shoot with her and my FI, as we won it at the Salon Marions-Nous. :-D

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      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!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      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!
