Important Information For The Blessing Ceremony

The Blessing is performed by an English speaking Minister. He reads parts from the Bible, he blesses your wedding rings and you exchange your vows. The blessing is a religious ceremony, not a legal ceremony, therefore you will have to be married before you come to Mexico.
