Jaime we didn’t, we were so tired the heat and humidity was killing us!!! LOL we just wanted to have a beer and get in the shade for a while LOL but I have some other pics from sea that we took on the yacht we rented one day...

I will post those tonight it will give a better idea of the beach and the jetty... Hope so!

Edna are you doing 2 ceremonies?? I thought of doing this too since its included in the location fee, but I don't know if I really want to go through the blood tests and everything.

Yes Amy, to be legally married in Mexico you have to do the Legal Ceremony ( the one at the jetty) and the Catholic Ceremony will be at the Church of Maria Reina de la Paz in Marina Vallarta which is really lovely and gorgeous, we fall in love with it as soon as we see it!!! I will post pics too!!

Is not a big issue about the legal ceremony, just the documents and the blood test that the Mayan take care of it... do you have all the documents for the Catholic Ceremony? have you talked to the Priest already? I have the requirements in spanish if you want I will try to translate and post them..

We think on giving two options for our guests: one in EP in the Westin and the AI at the Melia ... both are next door to the Mayan so is very convinient for everybody.... I will ask also on the Regina since they have condos available for rent so for families is a good option.

I always liked the Marriot but it seems they never answer on quotes!!! LOL

we are trying to get all our requirements in order now. I did my confirmation in Guadalajara as a baby and my aunt is trying to see if she can get a copy of the certificate. Hanssel has not done his and will need to wait until Feb 08 (a 4-session course). We are taking our Marriage class in 2 weeks then we need to take our questionaire with the priest.

Hanssel called the Parroquia de Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe (again) today and they said we could book with what we have but we'd have to wait until November 10th. I really don't understand why.

Edna, please post what you have or email me. Spanish is fine with me.

What time are you envisioning your ceremonies?
