What are the requirements for a civil ceremony in Mexico? |
|
|
The requirements for a civil ceremony between non nationals
are:
- Each person must hold a valid Passport
- Tourist card (issued upon entering the country)
- 4 witnesses, 2 per person (each will need a passport or
drivers license and tourist card)
- Medical Statement dated within 15 days of the ceremony
translated into Spanish by a certified translator that can
be either:
*A letter from your family doctor stating the results of
Blood Type, HIV and Syphilis
or
*Blood test showing the results of Blood Type, HIV, and
Syphilis
|
|
Can we have the blood test done in Mexico to avoid the
translation into Spanish? |
|
Weddings on the Beach
can arrange the blood test to be taken the same day of your pre-wedding meeting and it will normally take no longer than 10 minutes. The laboratory will give the results and the medical certificate to us so we can present them with the rest of the paperwork at the civil register office.
|
 |
What happen if one of us is positive for any of the blood
tests? |
If you have a positive HIV or RPR you will not be able to be married legally in Mexico.
|
|
How soon do I need to book my wedding? |
|
We recommend you to book your date as soon as you can. All services are booked on a first-come, first-serve basis. To receive the best possible location, date/time, judge/minister, and other services for your wedding, booking at least a few months earlier is suggested.
|
|
May I modify the packages offered? |
|
Of course, we love to help couples to put their own personal touch in their wedding. You can choose from one of our packages or we can tailor-make your own. It is your wedding and we will be pleased to organize any extras and recommend you the best options available.
|
|
|
How do I secure my wedding date? |
|
After a final quote has been agreed you simply sign the form
sent to you and e-mail it back to info@weddingsonthebeach.com.mx. We also require a deposit of U$500 to secure your date at the venue chosen. Thirty days prior to the wedding we will review the all services selected and according to the final number of guests attending we will send you an invoice and you must then send the remaining balance.
|
|
Can we have a private ceremony for only the two of us? |
|
|
We can definitely help you with the arrangements. We can provide the four witnesses required locally and you and your couple can have an intimate and romantic wedding.
|
|
Is the wedding ceremony valid in my country? |
|
|
A civil or legal marriage is the only ceremony recognized by Mexico and other countries. Your marriage certificate, given to you directly after the ceremony, is your official documentation. Some countries require the wedding certificate legalized and we can help you to obtain this as well, but it is important that you check what are the specific requirements in the place you live.
|
 |
|
What is the difference between civil, religious and renewal
ceremonies? |
|
The only ceremony recognized by Mexico and other countries is the civil ceremony with the judge. Religious ceremonies are allowed but are not legally recognized in Mexico and other countries. Renewal and religious ceremonies require no legal documentation or submission of paperwork; however, you must be already legally married.
|
|
Can I have a Catholic ceremony on the beach? |
|
No, the Catholic Religion only allows marriages to be performed in a Church as it is considered a sacrament.
|
|
Are changes allowed after full payment has been received? |
|
You may make changes up to the day of the wedding in most cases, and you can pay any extras to us locally in Mexico.
|
|
What is the best way to send payments? |
|
By transfer wire to our local bank and any extras can be paid upon arrival during our pre-wedding meeting.
|
|
|
How can we choose the music we would like to have during the
ceremony? |
You can bring your own CDs with your favourite songs or we can provide some romantic songs that will be adequate for the ceremony.
