Let me show you just how it was done:
1.) Stand outside the office, waiting nervously, hugging and kissing your soon to be husband. While they work on setting up the 4 chairs needed for the bride, groom, best man, and maid of honour. The rest of your guests stand behind you.

2.) We are told to sit down opposite the judge. He continues shuffling through papers, while we are told to sign the GIANT marriage book. We all sign, two times.
3.) The judge asks us to stand and reads us some paper about the court and our marriage.
4.) Then he reads us our Marriage Certificate. We raise our right hands, one by one, saying “Si” when he asks us if we accept to love, respect, and take care of one another in good times and bad.
5.) He says you are now “Marido y Mujer” and you can kiss.
6.) We then hug and kiss all of our family and friends.
7.) We take pictures outside, because the judge has another ceremony to do immediately after ours.
8.) Off to the bar for various rounds of Presidente Light.
9.) Then off to the Cabaña for quick honeymoon and……..well, that part is for just Enmanuel and me to remember.
I´m looking forward to our ceremony in September. Hope you all can make it. If not, I´ll definitely have some great pics to show you afterwards.
